### 3/5 — Good but

*2026-08-08, version 6.1.1*

Why servers are good but app have bugs connection bottom very slow and cancel bottom on connecting area not working

### 2/5 — unstable app

*2026-05-30, version 6.1.1*

Inconsistent network stability, regularly randomly drops network and user are expected to spend hours going through their archive to find answers. When it is paid for product, users should only concerns themselves with usage not learn networking and troubleshooting. Ridiculous.

### 4/5 — 勉强能用

*2026-04-19, version 6.0.4*

说实话该产品的变色龙协议在中国几乎已经失效，使用该服务建议选择延迟最低的地区并使用Wireguars协议

### 2/5 — Last update make the app lagy and worse

*2025-12-01, version 6.0.4*

please fix the scrolling. is to lagy and pings are always Red. before the last update it was fine but not now

### 4/5 — Not 100%

*2025-10-23, version 6.0.1*

I live in the SW. VPN tends to get stuck, and on many occasions I have to keep switching cities in order to be able to get Internet. Sometimes I must reboot my iPhone 14 to get it working again.

### 3/5 — User

*2025-08-02, version 5.2.3*

The app is beautiful when it works. But the servers crash often and take a while to come back online.

### 1/5 — Unable to login

*2025-01-20, version 5.2.3*

When I try to create a new account, it says email already exist, and when I try to login, it says invalid ID or password. This happens even after resetting the password.

### 1/5 — Unnecessary updates

*2025-01-09, version 5.2.3*

The app is unstable and keeps dropping connections.

### 4/5 — Nice app but

*2024-10-18, version 5.1.2*

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2024-10-13, version 5.1.2*

### 1/5 — The worst VPN I ever tried

*2026-05-18, version 6.1.0*

Within a week, I had to not only cancel my subscription but also delete my account with them. The connection was stable when “connected” both on iPhone and iPad, but the catch was that every few hours I had to connect it and also keep changing the protocol and other settings, as if it’s a puzzle that I was forced to play entire day with my devices. Same issue with the MacBook; in fact, it became far worse today, which led me to delete my account altogether: all of a sudden the app kept asking me my password and small boxes kept popping up all over the screen despite I entered my password in one box, and sometimes the number of box pop-ups were so annoying that it won’t even let me enter my password. Also, I was under impression it’s a Swiss company, but it turns out it’s owned by a Texas-based company. I will not recommend this VPN provider.

### 1/5 — 不建议，这里98 ％的时候连不上

*2026-05-02, version 6.0.4*

首先强烈！强烈！不要去苹果应用商店购买！这个应用，购买一周的可以申请退款！但是，买一年的仅一个1小时根本不给退！尝试机器和人工！直接关闭退款通道！所以如果你要买，－定要直接找官方购买！且服务好！

### 1/5 — 3 day working in China after paying a month m

*2026-03-11, version 6.0.4*

Above says it, I tried everything. When I first came was decent now it’s just wasting time.

### 1/5 — Not working w/iPhone 17 pro

*2026-02-25, version 6.0.4*

Have had this service for a few years and it has worked perfectly up until I upgrade my phone to an iPhone 17 pro. Has not worked since.

### 1/5 — Not Connecting

*2026-02-15*

Not connecting at all to servers

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear about the issue! It may help to try using Chameleon protocol, and try a few different server locations in your area. It may also help to try logging out of the VyprVPN app, and then log back in with your email and password. If the trouble persists, please feel free to get in touch with support any time - https://support.vyprvpn.com/hc/requests/new

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-06-10, version 5.2.3*

This isn’t working at all. I would like a refund and this needs to be removed from the store it’s now a scam

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-05-31, version 5.2.3*

Got this vpn just for my China trip bc it advertised as being able to bypass restrictions. However it never once worked during my trip.

### 1/5 — Installing VPN profile causes apps to think they are offline

*2025-03-09, version 5.2.3*

I installed this as I had a gift code and wants to give it a go. As soon as I installed the VPN profile, apps began thinking they were offline. First troubleshooting step was to switch from WireGuard to openVPN. Issue persisted. Didn’t matter if the VPN was connected or not, apps thought they were not connected. Removed the profile and the issue went away. 

Reinstalled the profile and the issue came back. Located that Connect on Demand is enabled by default. Not what I need as I use this for public hotspots. Turned it off. Issue persisted. 

Oh, there’s a firewall enabled by default? Didn’t ask for that. I turned it off. Same issues. As long as the VPN profile is installed, apps think they are offline. It’s like the VPN service is still trying to do something even though I am not using it. 

So I reached out to support. In a series of what feel very much like AI responses, the troubleshooting data in my original ticket was ignored and I was spoon fed each step I had already said I did. I have yet to have someone real actually respond. 

As such, I cannot recommend this service. If simply installing their profile interrupts the function of your device, it is poorly written and not at all what you want from a VPN. No, it’s not the WireGuard protocol. Not only have I tried other protocols with the same issue, I have another VPN profile installed that causes no issues. And…it was suggested I remove that one in order to make theirs work. That’s not how multiple profiles function. If yours is the only one that can be installed, your profile is broken.

### 1/5 — Total scam

*2025-02-21, version 5.2.3*

Paid for a year in advance to watch shows while traveling. My subscription showed active online but the app said I didn’t have a subscription. My credit card was charged but it didn’t work. I deleted the app and resinstalled it. I tried it on two separate devices. I couldn’t get online. When I got to their support page, they had me reinstall it again but this time it didn’t work. I asked for a refund via, they said they would give me a refund. But then they ended the chat. Total waste of money. Awful customer support. Pick any other VPN.

### 1/5 — Thief

*2025-01-28, version 5.2.3*

I bought from here and purchased through my Apple Wallet. I paid for a one-year account and paid in full, but the one-year account was not activated😡

*2025-04-14, version 5.2.3*

更多點路由器支持？！

### 5/5 — Best VPN

*2025-02-06, version 5.2.3*

Been using since the launch back in 2008/2009. Used to use with usenet and was always able to hit my maximum internet speed. Now I’m not so much a heavy user and still use them. No logs, privacy and even have features like auto connect on new or public networks. Really helps when I work on websites and need an uncached version of the site or those times when I want to watch USA exclusives on streaming platforms. The only company I’ve stayed with for over 15 years. Now that’s unbelievable for someone who usually switches service providers on an annual basis to get the best deal. I wonder what no customer I was since I joined pretty much on launch. Highly recommended to friends and family and now (a little late) am recommending it to the public.

### 5/5 — Good

*2024-12-10, version 5.2.0*

Good
