## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Impossible de le faire fonctionner

*2024-02-04, version 4.1.2*

Abonnement pris, cases cochées, les items restent désespérément à « Unlicensed » malgré tous mes efforts.
Pas compris non plus ce qui est attendu dans « Username ».

### 1/5 — Purchase did nothing

*2023-01-10, version 4.1.2*

Purchasing billed me but the app still said unlicensed. I don’t have the time to mess with apps too much so I requested a refund and deleted the app. Not fulfilled as advertised

### 1/5 — Not even sure it’s working

*2021-06-19, version 4.1.2*

Did nothing and still had ton of ads.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for Crytpocurrency mining!

*2018-10-25*

If you are thinking about buying this to stop the crytpocurrency mining script, DONT!!   This app is worthless and doesn’t work against that script.

**Developer response:** Hi Kevin, it does actually work against Cryptocurrency, but not outside Safari. If an application includes mining, and many do sandboxing prevents us from stopping this. We do have an Enterprise edition for businesses which will stop that though. Unfortunately it won't help consumers because it requires devices to be managed under MDM.

### 4/5 — Pratique mais manque de logs sur téléphone

*2022-09-08, version 4.1.2*

Blackfog sur iphone est plutôt bien, mais pour un particulier il manque :

Des logs de ce qui a été bloqué, comme sur ordinateur.

La possibilité de filtrer les autres navigateurs, tout le monde n'utilise pas safari même s'il fonctionne bien.

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2024-07-26*

Well done

### 5/5 — Black Fog Review

*2022-07-09*

This service is amazing
Works well great syber
Protection!!!

### 5/5 — Brilliant Technology

*2018-07-27, version 3.0*

This innovative method of guarding your device and data breaks the mold.  There is no constant nagging about updates.  It just quietly sits by and keeps out malicious traffic. I have been using the desktop version and I am glad to see it migrate to mobile.

### 5/5 — Awesome 😀

*2018-07-24*

This app is great!!! 
Web pages load super fast now and video starts immediately.
And now the spinning wheel next to LTE symbol no longer appears which used to bug me knowing that something is going on in the background for example data being transferred or something google is doing.
This app is really easy to use and you don’t have to do anything with it once you install it I highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — You do need this.

*2018-07-10*

I have been happily using BlackFog Privacy on my Windows and MacBook Pro for over a year. I knew the iOS version was going to be released and I am very happy it is here. 

Until you start using it you will not realise how external influences slow down your device and chew up your data plan. 

All those adverts that load before I can read the articles drive me crazy. 

Beautiful interface and simple but powerful product. Great job by the team at BlackFog.
