• Split tunneling — you choose which apps use the VPN • Unlimited free traffic and time — no data caps, no timers • Fast, private connection on any Wi-Fi network Every network you join can see more than you think — and a VPN that breaks your banking app isn't protecting you, it's getting in your way. SplitVPN gives you both: real privacy for what matters, and split tunneling that keeps your everyday apps working exactly as they should. WHAT MAKES SPLITVPN DIFFERENT — SPLIT TUNNELING You choose which apps use the VPN and which connect directly: • Your banking app connects directly — no fraud alerts, no locked accounts • Your browser and everything sensitive stay encrypted • Maps, delivery, and local apps keep your real location • Only protected traffic uses the tunnel — faster speeds, longer battery life Most VPNs are all-or-nothing. SplitVPN gives you control. FREE MEANS ACTUALLY FREE • Unlimited traffic — no data caps, ever • Unlimited time — no session limits, no countdown timers The honest trade-off: free servers are speed-limited, cover fewer locations, and can slow down at peak hours. That's it. No tricks. STAY PRIVATE ON ANY NETWORK • Encrypts your connection on public Wi-Fi — airports, hotels, cafes • Hides your browsing from your internet provider and advertisers • Masks your IP address from the sites you visit • Modern protocols built for a fast, stable connection — even on networks where ordinary VPNs struggle EVERYDAY SITUATIONS WHERE SPLITVPN SHINES • Working from cafe, airport, or hotel Wi-Fi • Keeping your searches away from advertisers' profiles • Traveling abroad and staying connected to your usual apps and services • Reaching the apps and sites you rely on when a network gets in the way • Streaming or gaming through the VPN while calls and messages go direct GO PREMIUM WHEN YOU'RE READY • Maximum speeds with priority bandwidth • Full list of countries and locations — from the USA to Europe and Asia • Rock-solid stability at any hour, including peak time SplitVPN is translated into 25 languages and used around the world.

Inflect
Read full descriptionHide full description
Text strips out tone. The same words can read as warm, cold, or serious, and we fill in the gap with our worst guess - usually when we're tired or already on edge. Inflect gives you a calm, considered read of how a message most likely lands. Paste a message, choose who sent it, and tap Read the tone. You get: - a plain-language read (warm, cold, serious and more), with a colour - what in the wording points that way - other ways it could honestly land, because text really can't carry tone - what to say back - three replies written for this exact message, with one-tap nudges to make them warmer, shorter or more direct It's a considered read, not a verdict. Tone is hard to read from text, and Inflect is careful to say so. READ A WHOLE CONVERSATION, OR A SCREENSHOT Paste a stretch of chat and Inflect reads their last message with the rest as context. Or pick a screenshot of the conversation - it's read on your phone and turned into text you can check before anything is sent. When they reply, one tap carries the thread forward. THE PEOPLE YOU ACTUALLY TEXT Add people by name - your partner, your mum, your boss - and each gets read as who they are to you. Answer four quick questions about how someone texts and Inflect tells their normal from a real shift. Names stay on your phone. TELL IT WHAT'S GOING ON Add a line about the situation - "we just argued about money", "they're in meetings all day" - and the read changes with it. Copied something? Inflect offers to paste it the moment you open the app. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-in, no analytics. A message is sent encrypted to Inflect for the read, then it's gone - never stored, never sold, never used to train anything. Your people, their names, your answers and your optional on-phone history stay on your phone. Share a read as a picture with the message hidden if you want a second opinion. BETTER WITH A FRIEND Inflect is calmer texting for both sides. Get the people you text onto it too and you each get calm tone reads on your own conversations. Share it in a tap. Your first 24 hours are free with everything unlocked. After that, Inflect Pro is a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime unlock. Inflect will never tell you what someone "really meant" - nobody can do that from text. It just gives you a calmer starting point before you react.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Inflect at every 5 days against SplitVPN's fortnightly. SplitVPN's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
