VPN, fewer ads and more control over DNS β€” in one app for iPhone and iPad. fogu Pro combines an encrypted VPN connection with optional DNS filtering for advertising and tracking domains. START FREE Connect without creating an account. Free uses an automatically assigned region, VLESS Reality and Classic DNS, with a 3 Mbit/s speed limit and limited free capacity. MORE CHOICE WITH PRO - Choose your region and VPN protocol, without the Free plan's speed cap. - Use multi-hop to route through separate entry and exit regions. - Reduce ads and trackers with DNS filtering. Manage domain allow and block rules and import DNS presets by URL. - Use VPN with filtering, VPN on its own, or DNS-only filtering without changing your public IP address. DNS, ON YOUR TERMS Open DNS settings directly from Home. Pro offers Classic, DNS over HTTPS (DoH) and DNS over TLS (DoT) where compatible. The app separates your saved choice from the confirmed active setting; changes apply on your next connection. DNS transport and filtering have separate controls. WireGuard and active personal DNS rules require Classic DNS. Free also uses Classic. DNS filtering cannot remove every ad, including content served from the same domain as the content you want. PROTOCOL OPTIONS Pro includes WireGuard, Shadowsocks and VLESS variants. Use automatic selection or choose a compatible setup for your network. Pro features require an in-app subscription.
