VPNmine is a fast and secure VPN for iPhone and iPad. Pick a country, tap connect, and every app on your device goes through an encrypted tunnel. Tap again to stop. WHAT YOU GET • One-tap connect. No configuration files to import, no keys to paste, no server addresses to type. • A server list by country with live load on every server, and a recommended server picked for you when you do not care which one. • Unlimited data. No session timer that cuts you off and no daily cap to watch. • No ads. Not a banner, not an interstitial, not a rewarded video — there are no advertising SDKs in the app at all. • A built-in speed test, so you can measure a server instead of guessing. • A network info screen showing the IP address, city and network the internet currently sees you as — before and after you connect. • Light and dark themes, and support for Dynamic Type. FREE AND PREMIUM A free account connects to our free locations with unlimited data and no ads. VPNmine Premium unlocks every premium location at full speed. VPNmine Premium is an auto-renewable subscription: • Monthly — $2.99 per month • Quarterly — $7.99 every 3 months • Half-yearly — $14.99 every 6 months • Yearly — $24.99 per year New subscribers start with a 3-day free trial. When the trial ends, the plan you chose is charged automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it finishes. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is switched off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. Manage your subscription and turn off auto-renew in your Apple ID account settings after purchase. Prices are in US dollars and may differ in your country. HOW IT WORKS When you connect, the app asks our servers for a tunnel that belongs to this device alone and hands it to iOS through a Network Extension. Nothing is shared with another user, and disconnecting or removing the device from your account revokes it. iOS shows its own VPN permission dialog the first time you connect. Before that dialog appears, VPNmine shows its own screen explaining exactly what the tunnel does with your traffic and what is recorded. Nothing is routed anywhere until you accept it. WHAT WE RECORD, AND WHAT WE DO NOT We do not log the sites you visit, the apps you use through the tunnel, or the contents of your traffic. We do not sell data, we do not route your traffic through other people's devices, and there is no advertising or tracking SDK anywhere in the app. We do record which server a session used, when it started and ended, and how much data moved, because that is what keeps servers from filling up and stops abuse. Your account details, a random identifier for this installation, and your device model, iOS version and app version are stored so the right configuration reaches the right device. That is the whole list, and the privacy policy repeats it in full: https://vpnmine.com/privacy ACCOUNT An account is required — there is no anonymous mode. Sign in with an email address and password, with Apple, or with Google. New email addresses are confirmed with a six-digit code. One account covers all your devices, and premium is tied to the account, not the device. You can delete your account and everything attached to it from Profile → Delete account inside the app, or on the web at https://app.vpnmine.com/delete-account. Deletion is immediate and cannot be undone. NOT A CONTENT BLOCKER VPNmine routes traffic. It does not block ads, filter pages, inject anything into the apps you use, or change what any app shows you.
