Works, fairly unintrusive, fair, few issues
It’s a good VPN and it works. However I noted a few minor issues such as:
- Sometimes your vpn server won’t be in the place it says it is, this is particularly the case with the “Netherlands” option. In fact, few if any servers under the Netherlands tab are in or anywhere near Holland. Using an IP locator on myself showed me connected to Belgium (in most cases Netherlands IPs were from Belgium), France, London, And Russia.
- Advert feature is buggy at times. When viewing ads to get vpn hours, make sure you do so without connecting to a vpn prior or you might not load any adverts.
It does work however.

Was good, now deleting
I used this app for a while. I really enjoyed the ability to choose other regions (limited options) for free. This allowed me to use an IP address that was out of my state or even another country. Now that option seems to only be available with a subscription. Not sure when that change happened, but it seems pointless to use the free version if it only lets me choose different IP's within my own city. I tried choosing an alternate IP multiple times, and I keep getting the city I am in. For those willing to pay for the subscription, this app is easy to use with plenty of options. I'm just bummed the free version is so limited now.

Don’t buy a subscription go with Nord VPN
The problems that I constantly have with the ad version on this VPN is shockingly bad where it keeps saying that I have a bad connection and I have to restart it but that never fixes it and I have to delete and reinstall but it only works for a couple of mins and that it will start again I wouldn’t even pay for it as I was testing it out to see how good it actually was so it saved me in the end I have recently decided to take out a year subscription with Nord VPN instead and I actually think there services are much better compared to this app. So I will be deleting this app from my phone and this app had lost a potential customer that would have took a year subscription with them there lose not mine.

That should not have happened. Thank you for drawing our attention to this. We will look into it at the earliest
Awesome VPN!
This is kinda long: this app is awesome and I enjoy it very much. Why? Because you can literally get 24 hours only by watching 12 ads! It works so well, and in school, all the blocked online games…magically unblocked, I just love how this is! ONE thing I do not like about it is I got a warning on asphalt 9, saying I was banned for hacking, although I did nothing. This might of been a coincidence. It also said I lost all my progress, but for some reason I kept my progress so I was quite confused. Back to the good stuff, this VPN is for real FREE and so simple to use, I just hope the developers of this game are getting paid enough, because the VPN is free, although it’s awesome to have a legit FREE VPN for me to use. Even though it’s free, don’t forget to watch ads because the developers get paid from them, and in return you get more hours of VPN time. Best VPN ever!

So glad you like the app. Thank you for a top star rating.
Exceptional VPN
This VPN is very different from any other app available. The most obvious upside of this VPN is that it’s free, which could give the potential user questions on how useful this VPN could really be, being free and all. These prejudice views are quickly shot down after opening the app. The user is greeted with a wonderful tutorial on how to use a VPN. This VPN uses a very unique system where you can watch ads for VPN time. This is honestly a revolutionary idea, since the creator(s) get no money from people buying the app (because it’s free,) but they do still get ad revenue. I personally have no idea how expensive it is to run a VPN, but hopefully the creator(s) are getting enough money from ads to keep this app free. You can also get a paid version where you get unlimited time on the VPN, no ads, and an ad blocker all in one package. My only drawback on this site is that you don’t have any indication that it’s active. And when you log back into the app, it says it’s reconnecting, something that I’m sure is a visual glitch that the creator(s) can fix in a heartbeat. Otherwise, and exceptional VPN, better than any other free VPN.

Stop the cap
I got this after reading the great reviews. It’s a scam, the reason you can watch 12 ads for 24 hours of service is because it doesn’t provide a service. I switched my location to Japan to watch some anime and immediately noticed it didn’t do anything. The built in ad block doesn’t do anything either, and I’m scared I may have got hacked. The reason I know the great reviews are bots is because the devs responded to them, like they would care about your five star. The only thing the app did was slow down my phone. Worst app ever, it serves no purpose unless you like having a slow phone or the vpn symbol. Please, don’t waste your time and find a working vpn.

Great. Quick tip to save watching adds
Quick tip for users: by starting an add, then restarting the app, you can save a lot of time. An add takes about 20 seconds, and turning it off, then back on takes 5. Hope this helps.

5/10
Even though this is supposed to be a free VPN in exchange for watching ads. I watch about 12 ads every 24 hours in exchange for 24 hours of free VPN service. But when you actually do the time and he’s a timer and all the stuff you realize that they are actually stealing minutes from you every single hour and so realistically you actually don’t get 24 hours. I mean at least you get this for free which is better than most but half the time the VPN is very slow or very quick you never know. Sometimes it will turn off while I’ve been running it within an hour or sometimes if I don’t even look at it it’ll stay running even if I have disconnected.
Definitely more bugs in the system than good but at least it is free considering. But I have been looking into plenty of other services because this one has been very disappointing to an extent. Again don’t forget you’re watching free ads for free VPN service so I guess you get what you get

Thank you for taking time out to review the app and sharing your feedback. Please note, once the minutes are earned by you, we cannot and do not take it back. We surely will look into the bugs and try to provide a better service. Thank you for your continued support.
Great!
While it may make my WiFi slow at times (as all VPNs do every now and then, especially since I’m not exactly paying for the best quality), this has been the one VPN app that I actually trust and have no issues with. I see others saying that they’re getting 50 ads when it should be 12 for 24 hours, it sounds as though they’re being a bit overdramatic or didn’t realize that after the first twelve ads you are supposed to click out of that screen. Not to mention — 12 ads for 24 hours of free VPN service which includes being able to change your location freely? You almost think it’s a scam, but of course; it isn’t. It’s literally one of the best VPNs free of use out there in my opinion. And the WiFi issue isn’t really a problem either, I’ve noticed that lately it’s been running even faster while I use it which makes me believe they have taken the time to edit and sort out that glitch. It’s perfect if you’re looking for a quick fix to change your IP. Also, you’re not being hacked when you use it just because the wifi is slow. Before anyone says that again, you REALLY need to research how VPNs work because any other VPN I use does the exact same thing every once in awhile.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review and giving top stars to us. It means a lot.
YES
This app is actually free, there is a proscription.. other than that it's fine, no. Perfect actually! If you don't pay for the proscription, that'll be totally okay! Because what this app says in its bio, it's NOT lying. I love this app so much, you can block adds using this app on your utilities! So I think this app is a 99% recommendation! Thansk for reading and I hope you join the unicorn family soon!! 😃
