Gigoter vs RouteBoss

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 adaptive controls and server selection, including a two-pane workspace on iPhone Duo and 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.

RouteBoss: Routing, DNS & Diagnostics RouteBoss puts real control over your device's network traffic in your hands: WireGuard tunneling, per-network routing rules, secure DNS, and diagnostics that verify your connection instead of just claiming it's working. RouteBoss is not a VPN service — there are no included servers. Connect it to your own WireGuard endpoint (a server you run or one you already have access to), and RouteBoss handles the rest: routing, DNS, health monitoring, and recovery. Route exactly what you want Send all traffic through your connection, or route only specific networks — your choice, visible and changeable at any time. Organize multiple endpoints into groups with automatic failover, and see exactly which one is carrying your traffic right now, not just which one you configured. DNS that matches your priorities Choose Automatic Secure DNS (Cloudflare, Quad9, Google), a custom resolver, or your system default — over DoH, DoT, or plain System DNS. Every choice is inspectable, not buried in a settings file. Health checks that actually check RouteBoss verifies WireGuard handshake status, route policy, DNS policy, and endpoint reachability and latency — live, on demand — instead of assuming a saved configuration is a working one. When something needs attention, RouteBoss tells you what and why, and keeps a Restore Connectivity path ready. Network tools when you need to know for sure Test whether a host and port are actually reachable, run a DNS lookup, or check an endpoint's reachability, before you trust it. Automate without surprises Set up On-Demand triggers and Quick Rules for automatic connect/disconnect behavior — RouteBoss is explicit about what's inferred versus confirmed, so automation never quietly does something you can't explain. Simple when you want it, deep when you need it Simple Mode covers everyday protection. Expert Mode adds raw Expert Routing rules and rule-set subscriptions for full control — and RouteBoss never discards a configuration Expert Mode can represent just because Simple Mode can't display it. Privacy by default Activity logging is local, configurable, and can be turned off entirely. When it's on, every automated decision is inspectable and reversible — nothing happens silently. Bring your own WireGuard server. RouteBoss handles the routing, the DNS, and the proof that it's actually working.
