Bad experience from what I’ve seen.

So as I proceed to cry in the corner of my room because I’m losing most of my games due to my wifi, I searched up how to get better wifi. They recommended this app and I tried it, and it slowed down the loading even more. When I go on twitch, it loads fast but the streams continuously freeze. Whenever I join a bedwars game, take kajillion years to load. In my experiences it is bad. It slowed down but didn’t speed up. That’s the problem. Till this day I have good internet after I uninstalled it.. I don’t know why.

Recently stopped working

App recently stopped working across our devices. Blocked our connection to the internet and caused other apps, iMessage, FaceTime (anything that needed the internet to work) would no longer function.
Disconnecting from the internet is probably the ultimate privacy move, but not really what the user (or probably the developer) had in mind when.
Was good in the past, but now we are better off getting a real VPN (Mullvad, Proton, IVPN) or using iCloud+.

Great, but a little confusing

This app is awesome, and the free option goes a long way in helping many people keep their privacy! I highly suggest it to anyone that asks, however, explaining it to them isn’t always easy.

The interface of having to go into the options to turn Warp back on after dropping down into DNS only is confusing. I’m not a designer, but I can’t immediately imagine any pitfalls to having two sliders on the screen. If you turn on Warp then the 1.1.1.1 slider turns on too if it isn’t already on.

You all have something great with this two levels of protection, show it off! No need hide it in the options menu. If the argument is having an app so simple you only need one slider, please don’t die on that hill, it’s not a great interface for all of your users

Having to switch in between modes is common when going into an area/situation with slow internet (like when only a text message needs to get through) or for services that try to actively block VPNs (like video streaming)

Great...until you need help

1.1.1.1 seems to work ok: it connects quickly, generally stays connected, is acceptably fast, and offers quite a few user options. It would be grand to know what those options do and why paying customers like me - I'm on the Warp+ Unlimited plan...or at least I'm paying for it... - can't get the simplest questions answered by a human, such as 'does the plan I'm paying 1.1.1.1 for include option x?, and if not, why is it presented as an option in the app?'

Oh you'll get an auto reply email as soon as you send "feedback" (the only way I can find to contact them although when you click the link to send the "feedback" you're lead to believe that you'll get a response), but don't expect your question(s) to actually be answered because they won't be. No, instead you'll be directed to the FAQs where the answer(s) to your question(s) almost assuredly do NOT exist.

I joined the Warp+ Unlimited program to support 1.1.1.1 but it seems that there is no reciprocal. You might consider just using the free plan and skip paying (even though it's cheap {you get what you pay for?}) or maybe just Apple Pay them a round of coffee because there is less than zero support from them when you need help or have questions.

Disappointing.

Vpn connected but not connected

Ever sonce yesterday’s update when u connect this vpn from settiing in bar above and in app itself shows it connected. But it is not and it opens nothing. When I disconect it from app the bottom shows it disconnected. But it write connected and also I can’t use internet due to this problem. Please fix it soon and make it like before when we could turn it on and off from setting. This way is too bothersome. But thanks for your hard work anyway.

Good for low connection issues

We went to vacation in this small town this past weekend and I needed a connection booster since my LTE was disrupted and the wifi connection wasn’t strong. I used my LTE and connected this vpn, it ended up boosting my connection and I was able to watch videos and talk to people. There were times where I couldn’t get a strong connection but I kept trying and overall this helped me get better connection and stay in contact with people! I downloaded so many vpns and this is the one that actually worked. I recommend you at least give it a try!

Our internet Insurance

After having our identity stolen several years ago, which caused an unmeasurable amount of misery, we searched for a reliable VPN. We now go through the day with security. We are also secure to the dark web, thanks to X-VPNvpn.
We keep our auto connect on always and it automatically detects a network change. We have several extenders in our house due to network dead spots and a metal roof but X-VPNVPN automatically detects and protects each one. We highly recommend X-VPNVPN.

Really like this app!

I have been using this vpn for several years now and have had great results. I live in the US and am elderly and not very computer literate, but the customer service provided with X-VPNVPN is excellent, and any problem that I have ever was from my own inability to correctly navigate the app and integrate it with my devices. Customer service always helped me solve any problem that I had. I can recommend this app with no reservation!

DSN VPN - not a real VPN

I gave this three stars because I feel that it doesn’t give a good explanation as to what it does - which might leave some people vulnerable.

Actual VPN - encrypts your traffic and routes it through a vpn network so that your traffic is encrypted and appears to be coming from a different location.

No log vpn - same as above, but doesn’t log what you do.

DNS vpn - encrypts traffic to the mimecast domain name server - doesn’t change your external IP address

Ways to test - with vpn turned off, go to google and search “what’s my ip” this gives you your IP address. With an actual VPN - do the same test, your results will be different. With DNS vpn, do the same test - your results should match the first test.

What this means - if you’re trying to hide your location or get around location based blocks (for Netflix for example) then this vpn won’t work - you’ll need an actual vpn. If all you’re trying to do is hide what you’re searching from your internet provider - then this will work; but things like google chrome and Facebook will still track you.

Good but there are alternatives.

I dowloaded this and think that it is definitely a worthwhile download however, you can manually change you DNS settings on IOS. Furthermore, you can use an app called BlockAda that can block ads and use Cloudflare’s DNS. I’m sorry if I sounded petty.

Alternatives to 1.1.1.1
