Your experience matters to us — please email bitsy@bitdefender.com so we can check your account and help resolve this quickly. ### 5/5 — Super super great service *2025-04-14* Despite of the bad reviews my experience with this service is exceptional. I can login from deferent geographic locations to watch Netflix, I can’t do that with other service like Norvpn. 5 starts for that. Now I have to figure how to add this to my router (NETGEAR) **Developer response:** Thanks a ton for the awesome review! For router setup help, feel free to email us at bitsy@bitdefender.com — we’ll guide you through it! ### 1/5 — Slow to No *2025-02-15* Slow connectivity to almost everything and no ability to connect to my banking app when this VPN is on. **Developer response:** We're sorry you've run into these issues. Please contact us at bitsy@bitdefender.com so we can help. ### 4/5 — Buggy *2024-11-17* The vpn works great, but when I try to connect it buffers every time and I have to delete the app every time it happens. **Developer response:** Hi and apologies with the issue with the VPN. Could you please contact us at bitsy@bitdefender.com so we can look into it? ### 1/5 — Worthless *2024-11-13* This use to be an ok VPN (no bounce) in the year years I had armor & vpn it served it’s purpose for the $100.00 a year. Now I’m absolutely shocked at the amount of privacy bleed that occurs and if you want VPN -with your VPN service! Then you have to pay an additional $59.00 or so dollars! Don’t waste your time. There are better services out there that are way more secure!!! Especially if you’re looking at paying almost $160 a year for the service. **Developer response:** We're sorry you ran into this issue. Please contact us at bitsy@bitdefender.com and we'll do our best to help! ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2024-08-04* The current version is great. Please bring double hop to the computer versions instead of just iOS. ### 1/5 — Ridiculous.. just Ridiculous *2024-07-22* Can’t believe Netgear would put their name on such a worthless VPN app which is supposed to integrate with the Armor app. Trash! I used to use Armor on my Nighthawk and other routers. I’ve found TP-Link Decos using Trend Micro (lifetime one price sub) is awesome. You lost several customers just from sitting and watching the cybersecurity world pass you by. I’m an IT admin and no longer recommend these products. **Developer response:** Hello, Please contact us at bitsy@bitdefender.com with a few details regarding your issue and we'll do our best to get it solved. Thank you! ### 1/5 — Ok the NETGEAR apps are easy *2024-07-18* But problems with the interface and I have had multiple IoT devices that I configured while on the IoT network jumped onto the 6-5g network. I have had problems with my HomePods refusing to connect. You guys used to have a professional setup. I should be able to make my IoT network invisible along with the 5-6g. There’s tons of sleazy people in this world and they want to hack you through your IoT infrastructure. Not only that. You should be able to setup your WiFi ip range without going into the web. I hate to say this but guess what. I’m really disappointed that your interface is going backwards. I mean I had a NETGEAR router in early 2000 and it had more security settings than this app. Same with the decco interface. I thought I was getting a superior product for the price. Turns out it was a waste of money in the end. Thanks. If I was investing in your company I would demand that you Fire your executives. What a joke. **Developer response:** Hello, Please contact us at bitsy@bitdefender.com with a few details regarding your issue and we'll do our best to get it solved. Thank you! ### 2/5 — Cannot upgrade on iPhone from inside the app *2024-05-26* Cannot upgrade to unlimited from inside iPhone app **Developer response:** Hello, Please contact us at bitsy@bitdefender.com with a few details regarding your issue and we'll do our best to get it solved. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Lily *2024-02-02* Grate Appe **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for the 5 star review!! ## Frequently asked questions about NETGEAR VPN ### What does NETGEAR VPN do?
