TOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXXXXXXXXXXPENSIVE!!!

I deleted

Safe and easy

As I’m a gramma I’m not so good with all things tech…this VPN is simple and I feel very protected while I’m out and about

This app deserves zero stars. It’s completely corrupting my WiFi signal

Do Not Download Nor Use ! This rating system needs to be changed so legitimate reviews can be made based on complete evaluation and finding evidence that this app is a huge disappointment to me as I will find other apps that deserves my attention and that’s worthy enough to be downloaded.

Terrific VPN

Private WiFi is easy to use and offers terrific protection for your privacy. Recommended!

Keeps my info private

Private WI-FI keeps my info private and find it especially helpful because I am a traveler and move around a lot leveraging local hotspots and coffee shops hotspots. Private Wi-Fi keeps me info safe and secure.

Easy solution

Very simple

Great App

This is a fantastic application! It’s been reliable and easy to use! Never any problems!
I highly recommend!

Excellent VPN

It’s fast, secure and easy to use.

Not good

Private WiFi doesn't have a kill switch if the connection drops, this is very dangerous on public wi-fi. Also you can't change protocols if IKEV2 is blocked on some public wi-fi networks. I use Surfshark as my main VPN, it has the same auto-connect feature, it's much faster and it has several protocols to choose from.

Always there to protect

I love this app! Keeps my info safe

Disconnect

Hey Dude,

You need to fix this app it keep disconnected without notifying me. Even after enable connect automatically. It keep disconnected. That’s really ridiculous. I will be glad if you could fix it. Because it has all the cities and states I used a lot. 😄

Private Wi-Fi vs 1.1.1.1

I have been using the 1.1.1.1 app since it came out, but decided I'd pay for this service instead (to cover my computer mostly, but had extra devices so I used it on my phone).

Compared to 1.1.1.1 it's a bit of a trade down. This app has a hard time of telling if I am on wifi or not, and when on wifi it has a hard time of establishing a connection to a server.

Once connected it makes most websites not work. I either get warnings that too many people are using the same IP as me, and the site won't let me connect (I get lots of warnings on the home page of the websites I visit).

When it does work, it does what it's supposed to. I am assuming this company is smaller than cloudflare so I know it won't be as smooth with updates and bug fixes. Still a good deal for windows computer though.

Slow

Way too slow to work.....don’t bother with it...

VPN does not appear legit

Poor, do not even see vpn in notification bar. Says encrypted in app but not in bar

Okay

Slow at connecting if you change servers
Unblocks BBC iPlayer and Amazon Prime Video (which is surprising) unfortunately not Netflix still worth £2.99 a month

Overall speeds over 130mbps and a decent ping too, no DNS leaks either

Dodged

I cancelled within the 10 day trial period - 3 days after, by emailing them (instructions from them at the time of sign up). They asked for my email address, which I replied to.
After the trial period ended, they responded that they can’t cancel the payment for me. I showed them a screen shot from their page showing that I had followed their instructions. They admitted fault with wording, and offered me a temporary subscription worth $3.98 when I was billed $4.49, and clearly stated in my first email that their app didn’t suit me.
I am now ignored because I mentioned that I am left insulted because of this (they were replying with timeliness initially).
Regardless of mistakes, own up to it properly - don’t just change your intro on the app store (they’ve erased the trial offer).

Very good !

Password changed in 1969?

Was great for a year but then update happened & now says my password was changed in 1969?? I didn't change my password so that's insecure! & this App wasn't born in 1969! There needs to be other means of support contact then just email. I don't have email any longer & cant contact to discuss or get help w password. Not good. App should still encrypt for cellular use without wifi connection. Most carriers went to limited data & wifi connection isn't used all the time. What can I do but put this here. Paying for 3 devices other 2 are fine. Didn't update app. Cell Fail.
