  • Blocks FaceTime

    Can’t make FaceTime calls with it switched on

    Developer Response

    So sorry to hear you're running into this! That's definitely not intended behavior as our app shouldn't interfere with FaceTime. If you are able, please reach out to our support team at support@disconnect.me so they can troubleshoot what may be causing the conflict.
  • This app works really good

    I had downloaded this app a little while ago and had not used it yet. I just opened and was testing out the functionality. It does exactly what it says. Checked my I.p. Gps to make sure and yup it showed the country I had picked. I’m only using the free version but it still gives you way more control options than say AdGuard vpn service with just a free account. You can control which dns service you would like to use. It’s just an all around good service.

  • Viafoura

    When I saw this website show up in the list of Recently blocked as being ALLOWED, I IMMEDIATELY added the site to my custom block list as BEING BLOCKED. Remarkably, a month after adding the block, the site DID NOT show up in the Recently blocked list AT ALL. So just now, I actually dialled in Viafoura in Safari, and lo and behold, the website loads in the browser WHEN IT SHOULD BE BLOCKED!!! What this tells me is that there is something VERY DISREPUTABLE going on! I think an explanation is due. That or a refund is due.

    Current response: So sorry to hear you ran into trouble with customizing the blocklist. If you can, please reach out to our support team at support@disconnect.me so they can help troubleshoot what happened. Second response: Thank you for the additional feature request regarding automatically deleting activity records older than a certain point. We're always looking to add more features to the app. Original response: Thank you very much for sharing what you're seeing with the customization list. Our team is going to work on making changes to prevent the rubberbanding that you're seeing when scrolling to the bottom.
  • Appears not to be functioning properly

    iOS 17.4 iPhone 12 - was functioning fine until a couple of days ago. The app is now blocking other apps from running and emails. Turning this app off, the issues stop. Have adjusted setting but to no avail.

    Developer Response

    So sorry to hear you ran into this! We just made changes on our end to address unexpected blocking with our app. Please completely close and exit our app then relaunch it to ensure the changes are applied for you. If you still have any issues or have any additional questions or feedback, please reach out to our support team at support@disconnect.me.
  • The best protection I’ve ever had!

    This is truly amazing, I did not know how to transfer my app over to my new phone off of my old phone and all I had to do was ask how do I do it, and magically it appeared so that I could put it on my new phone! I don’t know how they did this cause I couldn’t think of how to do it. I’ll tell you one thing they are fast and they listen and they read our comments and they act on them! Thank you so much. I really appreciate this greatly because I am vision impairedand disabled military family, we appreciate any help we ever get.

  • What went wrong?

    I’ve been using Privacy Pro for years and thought it was great. Then three months ago I got locked out of my Apple ID on all my devices and my iPhone and my iPad would each tell me to use the other to log in. After a conversation with Apple Support they blamed my VPN. I disabled Privacy Pro and all was good (except that I was forced to change my password and all my app passwords). And with all the debug I want sure that was the magic step.

    After three months I decided to try Privacy Pro again, just on my iPhone, and see if the problems were fixed. I turned it on yesterday, and today I’m again locked out of all my devices (not just my iPhone). Turn off Privacy Pro, reset all the devices and passwords, and I’m running again. I’ve never had an app fail so spectacularly.

    I’m not going through that again.

  • Breaks your phone on uninstall

    Tried this out and it works but had issues. Tried to uninstall and now I cannot use any other VPN. They worked before. Now if I try and use them they cannot connect. Thanks for breaking my phone!

    Developer Response

    So sorry to hear you're having trouble, and that is definitely not normal behavior with the app! When you remove our app, it removes all pieces of it, so it should not interfere with any other apps you use. Please reach out to our support team at support@disconnect.me so they can help ensure everything is working correctly for you.
  • Great app!

    The free version is so much better than many paid VPN’s but I’m unable to upgrade as in app purchases are not possible?

    Developer Response

    It is wonderful to hear you've been enjoying our app! If you want to purchase the optional subscription, you should be able to do so within the app itself by selecting the "Upgrade" button next to the gear icon in the app which will bring up a window for you to select a monthly or yearly subscription. The subscription is made through Apple.
  • My phone is faster!

    This app is a must have along with the DNS app. It makes my phone faster and saves battery life!! I pay a yearly subscription for this and can use it with my families phones via family share and is even on my MacBook! This app was featured in a great courses audio book, talk about shoutout. If you like your privacy get this app and pay for it, remember; if It’s free you are the product.
