Kyberlink is a fast, beautifully designed WireGuard® VPN client for iPhone and iPad. Bring your own WireGuard configuration — from your home lab, a VPS, or your workplace — and connect with a single tap. Kyberlink is a client, not a VPN service: no accounts, no subscriptions, and we operate no servers. Your traffic goes straight to the server in your own config, and your keys never leave your device unencrypted. WHY KYBERLINK • One-tap connect with a clean, animated home screen • "Am I actually protected?" — a built-in Connection Check confirms your traffic is encrypted, exiting through the VPN, and using your tunnel's DNS • Connect to Fastest — pings your servers and connects to the lowest-latency one, ideal when you keep multiple regions • Import in seconds — scan a QR code, open a .conf file, or paste a config PRIVACY & SECURITY, DONE RIGHT • Private keys stored in the iOS Keychain with device-only protection • Optional iCloud backup is encrypted on-device (AES-GCM); the key lives only in your end-to-end-encrypted iCloud Keychain • App Lock with Face ID / Touch ID, plus biometric confirmation before exporting keys • No analytics, no tracking, no telemetry — ever POWERFUL, YET SIMPLE • Multiple tunnels with groups, notes, reordering, and duplication • On-Demand VPN (Wi-Fi only, cellular only, or always on) • Trusted Wi-Fi networks that auto-disconnect at home or the office • Allow Local Network — reach your printer or NAS while connected • Server-down alerts if a tunnel stops responding while you're connected • Live stats: uptime, real-time speed, last handshake, and per-tunnel data usage • Latency testing and public IP display • Connection history log EVERYWHERE YOU NEED IT • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • Live Activity & Dynamic Island while connected • Siri Shortcuts — "Connect to Work VPN," "Connect to fastest" • Full iPad support, all orientations • Localized in English, Turkish, Spanish, and German Kyberlink requires a WireGuard configuration from your own VPN server or provider.

About

Tropa

Features
Read full description

Tropa is a proxy client for a secure connection with an existing access key. Add a compatible configuration, choose a server, and connect through VLESS, V2Ray, or other supported protocols when provided by the key. Important: Tropa does not sell subscriptions, issue keys, or provide its own server catalog. You need an active key from your service provider or administrator. The key determines the configuration, servers, and protocols available to you. Data protection during connection Tropa helps create a secure connection from an existing configuration and manage it without entering network parameters by hand. The level of protection depends on the protocol, key settings, selected server, and network conditions. Compatible keys may use VLESS, V2Ray, or other protocols supported by the configuration. Tropa features 1. Secure connection. Use an existing configuration to create a connection based on your key settings. 2. Key-based activation. Paste the key manually or open the link you received when this method is supported by your configuration. 3. Clear validation results. Tropa confirms successful activation and shows when a key is invalid, blocked, or no longer active. 4. Available server list. Choose the servers included in your key configuration. 5. Connection controls and status. Create or end the connection from the main screen and see its current state at a glance. 6. Key details. Review the configuration name, expiration date, and other information when supplied by your provider. 7. Key replacement. Add a new key when the current one expires or when you need another configuration. 8. Automatic startup. Let Tropa create the connection automatically according to your selected settings. 9. Ad-free interface. Essential controls stay visible without advertising interruptions. How to get started 1. Obtain an active compatible key from your provider or administrator. 2. Open Tropa and add the key using one of the available methods. 3. Wait for the activation confirmation. 4. Select a server from the list loaded for your key. 5. Allow the device to create a network connection the first time, then tap Connect. After activation, Tropa keeps the essential controls on the main screen. You can check the connection state, choose another available server, open the key details, or disconnect. If the key is no longer active, replace it with a new key issued by your provider. Who Tropa is for The app is intended for users who already received a compatible key and want a secure proxy connection without configuring protocols manually. Tropa works on Wi-Fi and mobile networks and keeps the ready configuration in one focused interface. Server availability, expiration information, supported features, speed, and connection stability depend on your key, selected server, internet provider, and current network conditions. Tropa cannot renew or restore a third-party key without its provider. Use the app in accordance with the service rules and the laws applicable in your country.
