One of the best VPNs in the market

I’ve been using this app and its services for more than a year now, it’s amazing. Fast, reliable, secure and also uses less battery than its competitors. Totally recommend it.

Response from developer

Dear Amirflp, Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. Just a quick note: the App Store only allows reviews from accounts that have downloaded the app, so it looks like the install did complete on your end. If you're running into an issue with the v3.0.8 update specifically, we'd be glad to help. Could you share your device model, iOS version, and the exact error message or behavior you're seeing? We'll get it sorted as quickly as possible.

🤔

Ask to load configuration but doesn’t seem to do so on my iPad running IOS 18 ?
Like to see how it does but can’t
The VPN I currently use interferes with my Apple Store connection so went looking for another Free VPN.
Why isn’t the Configuration loading so I can use this app.

Response from developer

Dear Freebe Gam3r, Sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for your feedback. RocketTunnel is a utility VPN app, not a commercial VPN service — so it doesn't come bundled with servers to connect to. However, you can easily connect to your own server for tunneling over SSH: just create a new SSH Direct configuration and enter your server's username/password along with its host and port. RocketTunnel will take care of the rest.

Fast, Stable, Reliable

It simply works. Even if designed for iPad, works beautifully on Mac, no issues no pressure on low end M1 Air, works reliably.

Best vpn application!

Aweful

Why new update can pass banned IP from server? This feature made a lot of terrible for us.

Response from developer

Dear Hamidrezartvet, Thank you for your feedback. We recommend updating to version 3, as we now support a much wider range of routing options. Please check the Smart Routing section in the v3 settings page — it should help address this. We'd be glad to hear your feedback after trying it.

Update: New UI and haptics are so good!

A Few months back i wrote a review that the haptic feedbacks are too intense in iOS app and I’m concerned if it will damage hardware in long term, now in the new update not only it is fixed, but the new UI design and haptics are awesome and so match! Thank you so much for considering it dear developer!

Response from developer

Dear Customer, Thank you for your feedback and suggestion. We truly value your input and are happy to share that this issue has been addressed in RocketTunnel v2. The latest version features softer and more gentle haptic feedback for a better user experience. We recommend updating to the latest version to enjoy this improvement. Thank you for helping us enhance RocketTunnel!

Works on some apps

It doesn’t load images on whats app, wont work for instagram or even apple store. Works great on telegram!

Response from developer

Dear Customer, Thank you for your feedback. The issue you're experiencing is likely because your server did not have a running UDPGW server. However, with RocketTunnel version 2, a UDPGW server is no longer mandatory. The latest version can resolve DNS queries over TCP when a UDPGW server is not specified or running. We recommend updating to the latest version of RocketTunnel to ensure seamless functionality. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or concerns!

Disconnected when lock my phone

This app is very good but, when I locked my phone, in background not working, I check settings of background app refresh but this app not appear here, why?

Because of this issue, I can't suggest this app to other, please fix background refresh issue
Thanks,

Response from developer

Dear Customer, We’re sorry to hear about the issue you’re experiencing. In certain cases, iOS may put background processes into sleep mode, often due to low device storage or battery-saving measures. Regarding your observation about the Background App Refresh feature, RocketTunnel does not rely on this feature. Instead, it is designed to run efficiently with minimal energy usage. The issue you’re facing is uncommon, and we’ve extensively tested RocketTunnel on a wide range of iOS devices to ensure compatibility. To address this, we recommend updating your app to the latest version, as it may resolve the problem. Thank you for your feedback, and please feel free to reach out if you need further assistance!
