User reviews

User reviews indicate major problems with the VPN99 Chrome extension, including non-functionality, failed logins, and broken updates. The desktop app with Stealth mode is more reliable and largely preferred. Users report persistent errors like infinite loading, server errors, and lost connection settings. Despite paying customers and attempts by support to resolve issues, the extension remains unstable and frustrating. Some praise exists for when the extension works or the desktop app performs well, especially in bypassing local internet restrictions.

Pros

The Stealth mode protocol effectively bypasses restrictions like Roskomnadzor.

Cons

Chrome extension frequently does not work or is non-functional.
Authorization and login process often gets stuck on loading or fails.
After updates, the extension breaks and causes connectivity and server issues.
Extension does not save the selected server after browser restart, causing user inconvenience.
Lack of clear communication or announcements regarding server-side problems.

It doesn't work

Serhii Sanin, 2024-02-04

The Chrome extension has been unfunctional for several months. It's seemingly broken and won't be fixed. If you click inspecting a service worker, you see repeated net::ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED errors.
