User Reviews

Overall, SonicWall Mobile Connect is a long-running VPN client that can work and access LAN resources when configured, and updates can fix issues. However, many reviews report reliability problems after iOS updates (notably iOS 16.x/16.1), with frequent disconnects during MFA and backgrounding. Configuration UI issues and slow updates compound user frustration. Improvements in iOS compatibility, MFA handling, in-app log visibility, and faster fixes would substantially improve the experience.

Pros

The app can establish a VPN connection and grant access to LAN resources when configured properly.
It has been a reliable VPN client for years prior to the recent update cycle.
Some updates have fixed connection problems, indicating ongoing maintenance and improvement.
The app displays monitoring details in-app when connected (monitor tab).

Cons

Major compatibility issues with iOS 16.x / iPadOS 16 that cause the app to stop connecting or crash after updates.
Frequent disconnects and unreliable connectivity, especially when approving MFA or backgrounding the app.
MFA/authenticator integration sometimes fails or disrupts the VPN connection.
Setup and domain selection problems during configuration (e.g., cannot scroll or select a domain).
Long wait times for updates/fixes and slow response to iOS compatibility problems.

Recent reviews

This app works just fine, and is able to connect to my firewall using a domain configured with dynamic DNS. I can access all of the LAN resources allowed by client routes. I can see all of these details on the monitor tab of the app. I can only see log information by downloading or emailing the logs; it would be nice to see those details on my phone. Minus one star for that. Configuring a SonicWall can be a pain, and ChatGPT isn't very accurate. Minus another star. TZ670 with SonicOS 7.3.0-7012, iPhone 15 Pro with iOS 26.2, SSLVPN configured to use Microsoft Entra ID as a SAML 2.0 IdP with MFA, and Geo-IP filtering.

Horrible cisco anyconnect is so much better

I can’t add a connection because the vpn I’m using needs a domain to finish the config. I have a domain, and it shows up but it won’t let me select it, in the scrolling list. I can’t even scroll. The connection type was the same way except I could scroll it, so I could switch options, and switch back to the default. This app is useless at the moment.
