Needs internet to even open app.
Why the app doesn't even open without internet and it always shows login screen when there is no internet.

Unreliable
Doesn’t bypass vpn blocking in cafes etc, (yes I have adjusted the settings appropriately) sometimes won’t disconnect or just switches off without any indication leaving you unprotected. Just get Proton vpn and everything just works.

Delayed Connections
Overall the sale price was much lower than competitors. Achieving a connection takes time. Doesn’t connect automatically without delays. Locked out of sites like YouTube when using the two functioning protocols, OpenVPN and IKEv2, both of which usually interact with most websites consistently. Customer service is responsive. The interface is intuitive.

App crashing on launch? Try this manual fix!
If the app instantly closes upon opening on your iOS device, you can bypass the app entirely and still use your premium subscription information to manually set up a working VPN. Apple devices have a built-in VPN client that can connect directly to Privado's servers.
How to fix it:
STEP 1: GET YOUR SERVER AND CREDENTIALS
Before using your iPhone settings, you need to collect your unique configuration details using a web browser:
1. Open Safari (or Chrome) and log into your account on the PrivadoVPN website.
2. Your username for manual configurations will be displayed on your main account page. (Note: This username might look different from your standard login email. Copy it down).
3. Open the PrivadoVPN Server List page.
4. Choose a city location close to you and copy its Server Name. It will look something like ams-005.vpn.privado.io or mia-003.vpn.privado.io
STEP 2: INPUT SETTINGS ON IPHONE
Now that you have your credentials, you can configure your iPhone VPN:
1. Open your iPhone Settings app and go to General then VPN.
2. Tap Add VPN Configuration...
3. Set up the fields exactly as follows:
- Type: Tap this and select IKEv2
- Description: Give it a name, like Privado Manual.
- Server: Paste the server name you copied in Step 1 (e.g., mia-003.vpn.privado.io).
- Remote ID: Type *.vpn.privado.io exactly as written (include the asterisk).
- Local ID: Leave this completely blank.
- User Authentication: Select Username.
- Username: Enter your PrivadoVPN username from your online dashboard.
- Password: Enter your PrivadoVPN password.
- Proxy: Off.
4. Tap Done in the top-right corner to save.
To connect, simply tap the checkmark next to Privado Manual and flip the Status switch at the top to Connected.
Once saved, you can turn the VPN on or off directly from your main iPhone/iPad settings menu without ever needing to open the app again!
Tip: If you need extra help navigating the menus, search the web for "How to set up a VPN on my iPhone or iPad" to see step-by-step screenshots.
