What's New in rVPN
1.2.11
September 17, 2026
This release makes the VPN dramatically more reliable on iPhone: - Survives sleep: the tunnel no longer assumes the connection is dead after the phone dozes - it probes first and keeps healthy sessions alive, so the VPN stays connected through hours of standby. - Faster recovery from dead zones (lifts, tunnels, basement car parks): reconnects complete in seconds instead of looping while no data flows. - Fixed a crash that could occur while reconnecting between networks. - Fixed a slow memory leak that could eventually disconnect the tunnel on long-running sessions. - Holds a background task during every reconnect so iOS can't suspend the tunnel mid-handshake. If you previously saw the VPN show "connected" but pass no traffic after waking your phone, this update is for you.
