### 1/5 — SCAM

*2018-03-14, version 1.4*

This app does not function properly and I was billed for the year membership despite having cancelled my trial the same day I downloaded it. Just read the other reviews. They are all mostly from July 27 with native English speaker sounding names but the wording is distinctly not from a natural English speaker.  They are obviously fake made up by the app owner.  I have reported this app to Apple. DO NOT DOWNLOAD!

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2017-09-10, version 1.0*

I paid for this app and it will work for about 5 minutes and then it disconnects and I have to stop the app and then restart for another 5 minutes. I see why you never get your money back.

Slow in the day and fast in the dead of night

*2018-06-26, version 1.5*

Do not download this

### 1/5 — Can’t keep connected

*2018-06-01, version 1.5*

I am using version 4.2.1 on an iPhone with IOS 11.4. We use the Optimal connection and the connection constantly drops off.  If I don’t have a connection, my browsers won’t load pages. Often I just delete the VPN app so I can get some work done. I am sorry I bought this product.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2018-05-10, version 1.5*

You should get coins for using it and it showing to you more and more advertisements.

### 1/5 — Don’t use this VPN

*2018-04-23, version 1.4*

I have paid for the monthly free subscription with 7 days free use. It never work for more than 2 hours.

### 1/5 — LOOK AT REVIEWS

*2018-04-17, version 1.4*

If you'd notice almost all of the good reviews are from people with basic names. Don't trust them! Everyone without a generic sounding name literally hates this app so you've been warned.

thanks

### 5/5 — It really is free!

*2018-04-05, version 1.4*

It’s actually free to use which is nice. There are in app purchases which can further enhance the users experience but isn’t necessary. The basic functions that come with the free version are all one needs to operate a VPN/Proxy successfully to allow for safe and private surfing of the internet.

### 5/5 — Deployment

*2018-04-04, version 1.4*

Works great in UAE.

### 4/5 — Horrible Service

*2018-07-13, version 1.5*

Its a fake service. So don’t waste your money.
