This is a worthless app. ### 1/5 — AWEFUL service *2015-03-01* Doesn't work and I've been waiting 3 weeks for a respond to my email. At this point I've accepted my money is stolen and they won't do anything (let alone have the courtesy to respond) a refund would've been nice for a broken service but that comes with a professional company which this clearly is not. I recommend ark vpn or VPN shield ### 1/5 — Can't delete profile.
