Privacy VPN protects your connection with one tap, even on networks where other VPNs are blocked. No sign-up, no email, no activity logs. A smart connection picks the protocol that gets through: VLESS first, OpenVPN when needed, switching by itself. Servers worldwide, unlimited data and a built-in ad and tracker blocker. WHAT YOU GET • Servers worldwide: choose the country you connect through • Unlimited data: no data caps and no speed caps • No activity logs: we don't keep a record of the sites you visit or what you do online • Smart connection: VLESS and OpenVPN; it switches by itself when a network blocks VPNs • Ad and tracker blocker: cleaner, faster pages • Private browser: a built-in browser that saves nothing • No account: no sign-up, no email, no password • Auto-reconnect: if the connection drops, Privacy VPN reconnects by itself • Kill switch: turn it on in Settings to block internet traffic if the VPN connection drops, until it reconnects • Hides your IP address and encrypts your traffic on public Wi-Fi in hotels, cafés and airports PRIVACY AND SECURITY ON EVERY NETWORK On public Wi-Fi in hotels, cafés and airports, Privacy VPN hides your IP address and encrypts your traffic, so your browsing stays private. The private browser saves no history, and the ad and tracker blocker keeps pages clean and fast. A SECURE PROXY THAT KEEPS YOU CONNECTED Tap once and the smart connection does the rest. If a network blocks VPNs, Privacy VPN switches between VLESS and OpenVPN by itself, and if the connection drops, it reconnects automatically. Unlimited data, servers worldwide and no account to create.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Privacy VPN at 4.2 against LionVPN's 3.6. LionVPN's advantage is review sentiment (92% vs 50%). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. LionVPN sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $10.99 per month and Privacy VPN sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Privacy VPN holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 45 and 53 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of LionVPN's written reviews are positive against 50% of Privacy VPN's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
LionVPN ships an update every 5 weeks, Privacy VPN monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
