Wisp is a fast, private client for the Xray / V2Ray protocol family — VLESS, VMess, Trojan, Shadowsocks and REALITY. Wisp does not sell, host or provide any VPN or proxy service, servers or subscriptions. No accounts, no sign-up, no payments and no in-app purchases. You connect using your own configuration — from a server you run yourself, or from any provider you already use. HOW IT WORKS • Paste a config link (vless, vmess, trojan, ss) on the home screen • Or scan a QR code with the built-in scanner • Tap connect, allow the system VPN permission — you're online FEATURES • One-tap connect with kill switch (blocks traffic if the tunnel drops) • Automatic server selection by real latency • Per-server ping: TCP plus a real proxy check — dead servers are marked honestly • Live traffic stats: up/down speed and totals • Connection history with timestamps and per-session stats • Real-time logs with level filter • Multiple themes: Aurora, Sunset, Neon • Russian and English interface • Native iPhone, iPad and Mac builds — Apple Silicon supported SUPPORTED PROTOCOLS • VLESS (with REALITY, Vision flow) • VMess • Trojan • Shadowsocks • SOCKS5 NO SERVER YET? Wisp includes a step-by-step guide to set up your own Xray VLESS + REALITY server on any VPS via the open 3X-UI panel — about 15-20 minutes. The server is fully yours; Wisp connects to it like any standard Xray client. PRIVACY Wisp does not collect, store or transmit your network traffic. Configs, server lists and connection history stay only on your device. Anonymous analytics and crash reports are used solely to gauge app stability. IMPORTANT Wisp is a client. It does not sell VPN services or provide servers. The app routes traffic only through configurations you provide yourself. You are responsible for complying with the laws of your country.

Select any app to view its description, version information, categories, and any extra requirements before choosing to wrap it. WRAP THIS APP One tap generates a custom install script locally — no account, no AI subscription. Each script opens in a collapsible JSON viewer with syntax highlighting.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Wisp VPN at none against HexWrapper's 1. Wisp VPN also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
