Phoenix is a fast, private VPN built on one idea: the less we know about you, the safer you are. There is no sign-up. No email, no phone number, no password. Open the app, tap connect, and your traffic is encrypted. WHY PHOENIX - No account, ever Most VPNs start by asking who you are. Phoenix doesn't. Your device is issued an anonymous key automatically - there is no profile to leak, sell, or hand over. - No activity logs We do not record the sites you visit, your traffic, or your DNS queries. Not stored, not sold, not shared. Read our privacy policy - it is short, because there is little to describe. - No ads, no trackers Phoenix contains no third-party advertising or analytics SDKs. Nothing in the app is watching you. - Built-in ad and tracker blocking Known advertising and tracking domains are blocked at the network level while you're connected. Pages load faster and use less data. - Per-app split tunnelling Choose which apps skip the VPN. Useful for banking apps that refuse foreign connections, or any app you'd rather send direct. - Verified connection Many VPNs show "connected" the moment a handshake completes - even when nothing is actually flowing. Phoenix checks that real data is moving and tells you when it is genuinely working. - Automatic server switching If a server slows down or stops carrying traffic, Phoenix moves you to a healthy one without you having to do anything. SUBSCRIPTIONS Phoenix has no ads and no account. A subscription gives you a larger data allowance and more device slots: - Individual - for one person - Family - for the whole household Subscriptions are available monthly, every 3 months, or every 6 months. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel any time in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions. HOW IT WORKS Phoenix encrypts your device's internet traffic and routes it through servers we operate, so the network you're on - public Wi-Fi, a hotel, a cafe, a mobile carrier - cannot read it or interfere with it. Modern encryption, sensible defaults, nothing to configure. WHAT PHOENIX IS NOT We'd rather be honest than oversell. A VPN protects traffic in transit. It does not make you anonymous to services you log into, and it does not protect a device that already has malware on it. Anyone claiming otherwise is selling you something.
