Doesn’t work

This app used to work but now it doesn’t even open.

Does not work

This app is definitely broken. It’s attempted to send a code to my email numerous times and does nothing.

Response from developer

Total waste of time

You download identity, defender, it has you fill out forms, all seem to be free. Then it tells you to go over to unmasked.com. You fill out more forms there, and it runs you through 8 to 15 pages of alleged reports where it looks like it’s drilling down on you or the subject you entered, and you spent about 10 to 15 minutes waiting for this alleged report to come together. It’s all supposed to be free right? Just like it says at the Express VPN website, it’s all included with your Express VPN membership. So after waiting about 15 minutes to get the report that I looked for, it’s now asking me for money to see the report. Peyton switch Scam all over again.

Response from developer

Hello! We are very sorry for the confusion and concern. Please be assured that the official ExpressVPN Identity Defender app does not redirect users to third-party websites like "unmasked.com", nor does it ask for additional payment to view your reports. As you correctly mentioned, Identity Defender is included at no extra charge with our Advanced and Pro subscriptions for U.S. users. It sounds like you may have inadvertently clicked on a third-party ad or a misleading link outside of our official ecosystem. We strongly encourage you to reach out to our support team at support@expressvpn.com or via our 24/7 live chat at expressvpn.com so we can help verify that you have the official app installed and ensure you are safely accessing your included benefits.
