So many issues
Have been looking forward to this app since Shawn talked about it a year ago. States that VPN can slow or limit connection. When it is turned on, my phone connection completely vaults. Cannot use any other application or data when connected to the VPN. Big flaw for a security app where a major use for it is VPN. Also using DNS completely shuts down all internet use when on cellular. Absolutely drains phone battery when anything is connected in the app. Contacted support and they said data was flowing through DNS, but never loading for me. No recommendations on how to fix it or have the app work properly. Overall, this app could not be more disappointing.

Disappointment
I downloaded this app after hearing about it on SRS. Wanted to demo it. No demo. You must subscribe to even see what you are buying. Based on the description looks like a pretty basic VPN to me. You want DNS protection just use OpenDNS for free. Having been forced to create an account only to be met with a pay wall and no ability to even see how the app works, I then tried to delete my account. Guess what? Error deleting account. Shocker. Data collection much? Shawn should have asked some one before he put his name on this.

Need Canadian IP’s
Love the app easy to use and love I can had my dns on trusted networks to help with speed. Would love Canadian locations also if at all possible
Overpriced vpn
This is basically a vpn service with dns which is a decent vpn so long as you don't want lots of location options to choose from and only want the usa as your location. The burner numbers are calls only no txt and since that's how nearly all companies that you give your number out to verify with txt this feature is somewhat lackluster for the price-you can get burner call only numbers for free. If it had the option to txt and particularly blue bubble txting it would be worth it in my opinion but it doesn't.

No free trial period
At least provide a trial to test it out. Here because of Shawn Ryan
Purposefully Difficult To Cancel
You can’t cancel the subscription through the iOS App Store, and the login button on the glacier website does not work, at least on mobile iOS. You need to navigate to a difficult to find login button and then confirm on multiple pages you’d like to cancel. Switching to another vpn option.
Response from developer
Hi there, sorry to hear you're having issues cancelling. You can cancel your Apple subscription on your iPhone in Settings > iCloud > Subscriptions. Apple handles this automatically. Please reach out to us at support.theglacierapp.com so we can get more information about your experience.
Auto VPN
Loving the app so far. Very impressed! Would love to have an auto VPN feature so I don’t have to go in and turn it on every single time. Other than that, no gripes thus far! Most likely will be signing up for the annual subscription once this month is up. Never thought I would get an app like this but it’s making a difference that’s for sure!!

Super easy to use
Great app
No more tracking
Does what it advertises! My phone experience has changed. Thanks Shawn and Glacier
Pin#, LOC, and recent call history
1. Enable app login Security with Pin or biometrics.
2. Recent call history for privacy app is missing the ability to delete Call history.
3. 2FA highly suggested.
Everything else is pretty cool and shorter those two little big things I would give it five stars.
And I will come back and give it five stars when if these important updates come to fruition.
I don’t know who signed off on green lighting the app without the basics even being available as an option to enabled in the settings.
I hope this is well received only as constructive feedback I am a supporter and paid Member of the Shawn Ryan show, you’re doing great work brother.
It takes a village and thank you very much for the content that you put out for the American Patriots and those around the world who care.

Good app
The concept is awesome. However a couple of things that I would love to see improvement on. I would love to be able to text from the burner number. I don’t talk on the phone a lot but I do text. Also when I call someone trough the glacier app. Their caller ID says glacier app. It would be cool if that doesn’t pop up on the person receiving the call

Great, but needs updates
Seems to work great so far, however, there needs to be an option for number keypad while using burner number to select options with automated systems. Also having text option would be a plus.
Glitchy
When I first downloaded this app the phone numbers I selected kept disappearing. Suddenly it caught up and then showed all of the numbers I had selected when I thought the others were gone. I had to delete the ones I didn’t want and hopefully I don’t get charged for them. Now the app is telling me it needs to update but there isn’t an update in the App Store. I refreshed the screen and even went to the app’s download page. Nothing. In the app it is still showing it needs an update. Another thing, after turning off DNS to see if it was causing a slow load on something, I got three random text messages almost back to back that I’d never received before. One was a weather update for a county I’m nowhere near and have nothing to do with. Not feeling very confident about this app to say the least. How about not releasing a SECURITY app until all of the bugs are worked out…

Response from developer
Hi there! Feel free to reach out to our support team anytime, whether it's about the phone lines or any other questions about the app. Happy to walk you through the setup for you!
Working great
Just have used for 2 days. Love how it is blocking trackers. Have not used the burner number feature yet. Use on my iPhone and iPad. I stream tv so waiting for them to release on google so I can install on my streaming devices and use their VPN. Have used there VPN on phone and iPad and didn’t notice a big slowdown. Have used Surfshark but plan to drop if this works out. What my money going to an American company.

Great for single device but lacks burner text
I am mostly happy with the functionality of the app, however, it does not have texting capability with the burner number. This is often needed when filling in the burner number for a shopping discount or other codes. If you know what you’re doing, you can get all this functionality and separate apps for less money. If this were to get texting, I would consider it a five out of five and would no longer prefer a separate combined stack that is cheaper.

Exactly what i’m looking for.
I travel a lot for work and have to use a lot of customer/public wifi so having a vpn/dns is really helpful to keep my data safe. I also have to call customer from my personal phone and they keep calling me after i leave the job site or on the weekend so having the option to ditch the phone number for a new one when too many customer call me on the weekend is awesome.
Thanks!
Thanks!

So far so good
I remember hearing about this a while back on some small podcast I listen to with an old veteran and hoping it will come out sooner than later because the only options we had available at the time were compromised. I don’t know much about this stuff but what I do know is I truly believe the people behind it stand for what this country was founded on and believe that every person should feel safe and have privacy. I do feel I get that with this product. The burner option is a great addition even for the everyday American, who has to put their phone number on every single website they go to etc. and until I could find something negative to say, I’ll just leave it here. The rewards of the success of this app are well-deserved.

Amazing start
Love all the features especially the DNS. Blocks everything that I want. I wish we could see more about it what it’s blocking and what filters it’s using. Hopefully in the future.
More info with details
I enjoy seeing the number of blocked trackers. I would prefer to see exactly which ones were blocked and from which action or search on my end which started that attempt.
The product is working I assume but need more info to feel informed as to how glacier is protecting my privacy other than a number of
