Gigoter vs Ghostlane

Gigoter is a clean, fast client for connecting to Shadowsocks or WireGuard from iPhone, iPad, and Mac. BRING YOUR OWN SERVER Gigoter does not require an account. Add a server you control by entering its details, importing an ss:// link, or pasting a standard wg-quick configuration. This workflow is free. An optional Gigoter Plus auto-renewable subscription provides managed, ready-to-use routes and keeps their credentials current. ROUTING MODES • Global mode sends all supported traffic through one selected route. • Rule Based mode can send selected services through specific proxies while other traffic remains direct. • Direct mode keeps the tunnel available without using a proxy route. • Switch modes while connected without restarting the VPN session. PROTOCOLS • Shadowsocks with aes-128-gcm, aes-256-gcm, and chacha20-ietf-poly1305, including UDP relay. • WireGuard with Noise handshakes, optional preshared keys, automatic rekeying, and keepalives. GIGOTER PLUS • Managed routes appear automatically after subscribing. • Each managed server includes a 50 GB monthly traffic allowance. • View current per-server usage and securely refreshed credentials in the app. • Monthly and yearly plans provide the same features. LOCATION, SERVER MAP, AND DIAGNOSTICS • View an optional one-time physical location, the approximate location of your underlying network, and your proxy route. • Explore proxy routes on an interactive Apple MapKit globe with atlas and satellite views, with controls and server selection in a bottom sheet on iPhone and iPad, or a sidebar on Mac. • Measure server latency and inspect recent network activity. • Public network, exit, and relay IPs are checked for reviewed Gigoter location corrections, with IP2Location.io as the fallback. Report an incorrect city after reviewing the exact IP and replacement location. Browsing destinations are not sent to the location service. DESIGNED FOR PRIVACY • No developer account, no sign-up, no advertising, and no analytics. • Credentials for servers you add remain on your device. • Gigoter does not retain browsing history, destination domains, destination IP addresses, or traffic contents on developer-operated services. • Optional packet captures you explicitly start are saved on your device and are never uploaded automatically. SIMPLE BY DEFAULT • One tap to connect or disconnect. • Import ss:// and wg-quick configurations. • A built-in explainer shows how packets travel through the tunnel. Use a Shadowsocks or WireGuard server that you operate or have credentials for, or subscribe to Gigoter Plus for optional managed servers.

Ghostlane carries your traffic inside a video call. Most tunnels are recognisable. On a network that inspects what passes through it and drops anything shaped like a VPN, they stop working — not because the encryption failed, but because the shape of the connection gave it away. olcRTC is a different answer. It opens a WebRTC media session to a public meeting service — the same kind of call the network already carries all day — and moves your traffic inside it. What stays on the wire is a video call. ROOMS, AND HOW FULL THEY ARE An olcRTC relay holds a fixed number of slots, and a full room cannot take you. So the app asks each room how full it is and shows that in the list, before you pick one. It is the sort of thing you only need when the thing you are connecting to has rooms. IT ALSO SPEAKS THE ORDINARY PROTOCOLS A call-shaped tunnel costs bandwidth, and it is not needed until it is. The same app connects over the standard transports too, and you move between them as the network around you changes: • VLESS with Reality • VLESS over TLS, including through a CDN • Hysteria2, with Salamander obfuscation • XHTTP One app, because the moment you need the fallback is the worst possible moment to be installing another one. BRINGING YOUR OWN SERVERS Add a server list by pasting its link, scanning its QR code, or importing a file. The app groups servers by where they came from, filters them by protocol, remembers which exit you last used, and refreshes the list on a schedule you choose. Connecting routes the whole device through the exit you picked, using Apple's own packet tunnel. The status screen shows how long the session has been up and how much has gone through it. MEASURING Latency is measured where it can honestly be measured: through the tunnel for the connection you are on, and by ICMP echo for a server you are not connected to. Where neither is possible the app says so instead of showing a number it guessed. PRIVACY Nothing is collected. No account, no analytics, no advertising identifier, no crash reporting service. Your server lists and the app's own log stay on the device and are never sent anywhere. The app talks to exactly two kinds of address: the server-list URL you added, and the VPN servers in it. The one exception is a partner link that has to be resolved into a server-list URL, and that request carries the link and nothing about you. REQUIREMENTS A server configuration from a VPN provider: a server-list URL, a QR code, or a pasted link. The app does not sell one and does not include one. Any provider that speaks the protocols above will work. OPEN SOURCE https://github.com/ghostlane-project/ghostlane
