Great app, one minor issue

I love this app. It’s honestly been great. It’s been really helpful. Honestly my one complaint (a pretty minor one too) is that sometimes the VPN disconnects for apparently no reason, and I have to wait for probably about 30 seconds for it to reconnect before I can use the wifi again. This does happen fairly often too, I’d say about 3-4 times a day. Other than that, this app is great!

No support

There is no support team. I have been locked out of my account and I have no way of fixing it because they don’t have a support team
