Gecolux VPN — Fast, Private & Secure Your connection is your business. Gecolux VPN keeps it that way. Built on WireGuard®, the most advanced open-source VPN protocol available today, Gecolux VPN delivers blazing-fast speeds without compromising on security. Whether you're browsing on public Wi-Fi, working remotely, or simply protecting your daily traffic from prying eyes, Gecolux VPN gives you a private, encrypted tunnel — with one tap. Why WireGuard? WireGuard is leaner, faster, and more transparent than legacy protocols like OpenVPN or IPSec. Its streamlined codebase means fewer attack surfaces, lower latency, and longer battery life on your device. Gecolux VPN is built entirely around it, so you always get the best connection with the least overhead. Connect in seconds Open the app, pick a server, tap to connect. That's it. Gecolux VPN handles all the cryptographic handshaking in the background — you just browse. When you're done, one tap disconnects you cleanly. Multi-country server network Choose from servers across multiple countries, each displayed with its real-time availability status. If a server is undergoing maintenance, the app tells you instantly and lets you pick an alternative without interruption. Switching servers mid-session is seamless: Gecolux VPN disconnects the old tunnel and reconnects to the new one automatically. Your account, your control Gecolux VPN uses account-based authentication, so your subscription travels with you across devices. Log in, and your server list, connection preferences, and subscription status are always in sync. You can also manage your account directly from the app — including full account deletion if you ever choose to leave, no questions asked. Flexible subscription plans Choose the plan that fits your lifestyle: - 1 Month — perfect for occasional use or trying the service - 3 Months — great for regular users who want flexibility - 6 Months — the sweet spot between value and commitment - 12 Months — maximum savings for power users All plans are managed through Apple's secure in-app purchase system. Restoring a previous purchase is always just one tap away. Privacy by design Gecolux VPN is built with a clear principle: your traffic is yours. The app does not log your browsing activity, does not sell your data, and does not share your usage with third parties. You can review our full Privacy Policy and EULA directly from within the app at any time. Built for iOS Gecolux VPN is a native iOS application, designed to feel at home on your iPhone and iPad. The interface is clean, fast, and intuitive — no clutter, no dark patterns, no unnecessary permissions. Select your language (English or Italian), connect, and get on with your day.
