Terrible UI

Ridiculously annoying login pop-up pops up repeatedly every three seconds as you are trying to find out how to enter an alternate coordination URL making this app infuriating to use.

VPN on demand broken

All of a sudden someone they're broke the VPN On Demand. It never Automatically connects. I have to go in and manually do it. What's more, the widget That it is disconnected. I used to believe in this product to look elsewhere. I think the developers are slacking off.

Good app

Love it very much,but why can’t I sign in on iPad ?Are there some bugs?

Bad design for VPN on demand

The app will forget all your WiFi network SSIDs that you allow/blacklist if you temporarily disable VPN on demand. That’s really dumb and punishes troubleshooting.

Excellent app

Good, love the VPN on demand function except…

there should be a second option for « exit node on demand »

Cannot work under cellular

Tailscale works perfectly on WiFi but cannot work under cellular at all. Shows connected but can't reach any node and every request just times out. Switch from WiFi to cellular and the tunnel is completely dead. Useless when you actually need it outside the house.

Love this so much!!!

This is my first ever app store review. It solved a major problem I have, I am able to use my home IP address while traveling.

Login Schleife

Absolute Müll-App. Möchte sich permanent alle paar Sekunden neu anmelden. Wird wieder Gelöscht der Schrott!

Хорошо

На удивление работает очень даже хорошо, но на iOS сильно не хватает раздельного туннелирования трафика, которое есть на android. Очень нужно.

Battery drain

Love tailscale, but the battery drain is insane on iOS. Charge the phone to full at night, leave it doing nothing and less than 8 hours later it’s at half change. Disable tailscale and this doesn’t happen

Love it but the battery drain is insane

Super useful app/service, connect to your pc from anywhere as if you were on the same network, main issue is battery drains like crazy when it's on.

Workaround is to use shortcuts, have it turn tailscale on when the apps you use with it are open, turn it off after the app is closed. Issue with that is no server monitoring widgets work, you have to have the app open.

Great app, crazy battery drain

My iPhone’s battery life is significantly worse when connected.

Painless secure access

Tailscale provides painless, secure, remote access to my home network.

Doesn't work

I have an iPhone Air and it won't login with a Microsoft account total scam.

Don’t work

It never helped anything.

Tailscale working great on Mac, iPad and iPhone

Installed this on my Mac, four iPads and iPhone and it’s working perfect. Great app and software

Great for holidays

Get a raspberry pi with pihole and use as a Tailscale exit node at home . Put Tailscale on your firestick . You can now watch advert free ITVX . Chan 4 . Chan 5 and U . Plus iPlayer from abroad as the apps think you are still at home in the uk . Put on phone and those public Wi-Fi are now safer as you use encrypted link to home

Works for China

Perfect vpn! Thank you!

Exit node does NOT work

Exit node set on Apple TV correctly but it’s IMPOSSIBLE to choose it on the app (iOS and MacOS). It does show up on the admin console however.
All latest software installed everywhere.
It’s urgent to fix this.
