Best VPN & anti-virus/spyware app!!

Works really well, you feel secure and the VPN is very fast. It also tells you whose tracking you unlike most App. Only thing I’d change is to make sure you can delete history. But other than that it’s very secure. For someone that does a lot of work online I feel very secure. I wish they’d make this for Mac also because I do a lot of work on my MAC and this is something I’d definitely be interested in using

Hi Will Spill, Thank you so much for such a great review! Beta version of Fyde is available for MacOS. Currently, it does not have the user interface like iOS version but it works and protects your device in the same way. You can check it here: www.fyde.com/downloads/macos

Easy!

It’s super easy to use and I feel a lot safer than before !

Amazing Ad Blocker!

Before, my mobile internet browser would get annoying ads that make it appear and crash, even with the browser’s ad blocker on. I looked all over for something to stop them until I found this app and it helped me immensely. Now, I can see what ads are blocked and my browser never crashed again. I would highly recommend using this app for your phone.

Did not work..but it does now..

I opened it to run and it would not work and it would not let me get off of it because i would not give permission for it to access my vpn..I had to turn my iPad off just to get out of the app.. and it actually took my vpn completely off of my iPad including the app itself and I had to get another vpn app and this app put a lot of ads on here that was not there before..it really messed up my iPad and I deleted it..I installed it again and now it works great, I think that there was a virus that attached to it and tried to take over my iPad..if this happens to you,just delete it and then download the app again..

Very nice yet.

First day of use, and it is just cool, could find whatever my ipad did. Blocked ads or trackers, but what i have blocked does appear again, does that mean your app blocked it, it says a blocked connection connected ?

Very cute ninja by the way :)

Great app can’t be without it now :)

This is such a great app. So easy to use. I came across it while I was searching for protection for my phone after a ransom email I received got me worried. They also have a help chat available, my concerns were answered straightaway by a very helpful guy who knew what he was talking about and put my mind at ease and explained the scams I was concerned about. I have already recommended it to my family.

🌐📲👀 Security Is an extra pair of eyes

Ive used Fyde for months now, with a break now and then, over various incarnations of my iPhone's OS configurations. Im not a network admin by any means, but I'm not you ordinary end user either. This app was perfect to introduce me to a basic look into some of iOS's network chatter, more specifically, server contact. The best part was that I was able to right up front block stuff that had no business communicating or sending requests. And the app plays nicely by itself in the background, no babysitting necessary. Furthermore, Support right from the start was patient and responsive. In general I highly recommend this app to everyone... unless you are a network admin.

The only things I think Fyde should consider is being a bit more power-user friendly. Or, rather, be more specific and less vague when it comes to technical aspects. For instance, I have no idea what kind of requests are being made, what the client process is (or isn't), what kind of connection, what protocol.. But I realize that this app's simple user friendliness serves a greater purpose; *Anyone* can use this app. The more people who are introduced to the concept of Infosec, hey, the better!

Hats off to the Fyde team- I look forward to seeing them on my other devices 👍🏻
