Passepartout, VPN Client vs LinkSentry

Protect your online privacy with Passepartout, a smart VPN client seamlessly integrated with iOS, macOS, iPadOS, and tvOS. HOW PASSEPARTOUT WORKS Passepartout includes basic import and connection features. Additional features require an in-app purchase. INCLUDED FEATURES: - Support for OpenVPN and WireGuard protocols. - OpenVPN obfuscation (using --scramble). - Shortcuts automation for streamlined operations. - Exclude endpoints for precise control. OpenVPN support focuses on common options; compression is not supported because it is not secure. REQUIRES AN IN-APP PURCHASE: - Support for Apple TV. - On-demand rules for smart, automated connections. - iCloud sharing for seamless multi-device use. - DoH/DoT for secure DNS queries. - Domain matching for split DNS. - Export and share profiles. - Custom routing for advanced configurations. - Interactive login with support for one-time passwords (OTP). - Non-VPN profiles (e.g. DNS/Proxy-only setups). FAMILY SHARING ENABLED All purchases support Family Sharing, so you can share them with your family members. PRIVACY YOU CAN TRUST Passepartout is built with transparency and privacy in mind: - See exactly which servers you’re connecting to. - No ads, trackers, or unnecessary background activities—just the VPN connection you need. OPEN SOURCE AND COMMUNITY-DRIVEN Passepartout is open source and constantly evolving with the help of its community.

A single malicious message can cost you a lot. LinkSentry lets you inspect the message first — safely, on your iPhone, without ever opening where its rogue links lead. PASTE IT BEFORE YOU TRUST IT Copy the suspicious SMS or email, paste it into LinkSentry, and tap Analyze. You get a plain-language verdict and, more importantly, the reason behind it: the exact domain, the exact wording, the exact mismatch. LinkSentry never visits the address you give it. That matters more than it sounds. A unique link in a scam message can tell the sender that a real person received it — and can expose your IP address — simply by being opened. Every check happens on your device, against the text itself. WHAT IT CATCHES • Free subdomains on site builders, developer previews and dynamic DNS — where much of today's phishing lives, because anyone can create one in minutes without proving who they are • A brand's name used in a domain the brand doesn't own, like fedex-shipping or IRS-connection • Raw IP addresses, link shorteners, and credentials hidden inside a link • Addresses that mix ordinary letters with accented ones, so hotmail can be spelled with characters that only look like the real thing • Domain endings sold cheaply in bulk, favoured by senders who expect to be shut down within days • Lookalike spellings that differ by a character or two • Deceptive subdomains, where the real domain hides at the end instead of the start • Urgency, credential requests, payment demands, and prize bait in the wording SCREENSHOTS AND QR CODES Have a screenshot instead of the text? Pick the image and LinkSentry reads it on your device with Apple's Vision framework. QR codes are decoded and their destination analysed as text, never opened. LEARN, NOT JUST DETECT 21 short lessons across four chapters take you from what an IP address actually is, through DNS, domains, and URLs, to impersonation, phishing, and email authentication. A practice tab then lets you build judgment on harmless, non-clickable examples. HONEST ABOUT ITS LIMITS • "No obvious warning signs" is not a guarantee of safety, and the app says so. • Message-wording analysis covers English and French. Technical link and domain checks are language-independent. • Pasted text and screenshots rarely include the headers needed to verify SPF, DKIM, or DMARC. LinkSentry reports that authentication was not checked instead of pretending otherwise. • The bundled list of known brand domains is a starting knowledge pack, not a global certificate of legitimacy. PRIVACY Nothing you paste leaves your iPhone. No analytics, no advertising, no tracking, no accounts, no third-party SDKs, no servers. Your analysis history is stored in the app's private storage, encrypted by iOS whenever your device is locked, excluded from device and iCloud backups, capped at the 50 most recent reports, and deletable at any time. PRICING Three free checks, plus the built-in examples, which are always free. One optional purchase unlocks unlimited checks for your Apple Account, for good. No subscription.
