User Reviews

Users generally praise F5 Access Legacy as a reliable VPN for corporate access on iPhone, especially noting connect-on-demand and certificate-based authentication. However, widespread iOS compatibility issues after updates (esp. iOS 12/13 and iPad Pro) cause loss of connectivity and access. Additional problems include VPN settings being deleted or not removable and missing security features like Touch ID and 2FA. Timely updates to restore compatibility are repeatedly requested.
Pros
  • Reliable VPN access to corporate networks on iPhone.
  • Supports connect-on-demand and certificate-based authentication.
  • Simple, effective, and generally works when compatible.
  • Positive user sentiment and frequent positive feedback when functioning.
Cons
  • Major iOS compatibility issues after updates (notably iOS 12/13) and with iPad Pro.
  • After iOS updates, users can't connect or access work networks.
  • VPN configurations can be deleted or not removable after updates.
  • Missing security features such as Touch ID support and 2FA.
  • Some older devices/OS versions show broken behavior.

My iOS was updated by Apple store specialist and now I can’t do anything work related on my device because F5 would not connect.
