User Reviews

Users like the idea of Private Wi‑Fi for safe public Wi‑Fi and travel, noting it can feel secure and affordable. However, repeated reports of connectivity failures, ongoing subscription billing issues, and calls for more control over when the VPN activates (as well as iPad compatibility and UI status problems) dominate the feedback. The app is valued for its basic VPN/safe‑Wi‑Fi concept and low price, but reliability and flexible usage remain major concerns.

Pros

VPN and Safe Wi‑Fi for enhanced security on public networks
Works well and gives users a sense of data safety
Affordable option compared to other VPNs
Helpful for travelers needing secure connectivity in airports and cafes

Cons

Frequent connectivity issues and inability to connect despite paid subscription
Billing problems: monthly per‑device charges and unclear pricing
Lack of manual VPN activation and reduced flexibility (limited control over when VPN turns on)
UI/status indicator reliability problems (VPN/Wi‑Fi status not shown consistently)
Limited device compatibility, especially lack of iPad support
