Ratings and reviews

love the app and the speed, especially on high security, has improved greatly over the years. I now use full time on all my devices. There are a few websites that don't fully function or that you can't go directly to from Google, but I just use alternate routes or turn off for a few moments. It's a small price to pay! The number of ads and trackers that show blocked is so high I question it at times, but I suppose it is multiple hits? at any rate, love it !

This is the best app ever. now you might think I'm glazing or I might be a child but I have money and do you know what? This was THE BEST subscription I ever would pay for. now the free version doesn't have any ads but it's still great, I just want to be able to improve my speeds by ~400%, and also get the ad blocker that blocks EVERY ad. now you might see some websites that have little errors with err: Name Not resolved but that's just the ad blocker doin its thang😆! and you should use this!😁

5.1.26 update. The app blocks my WiFi calling (Verizon) which is essential for where I live. I tried excluding multiple apps, including system apps, and nothing seems to fix the problem. I exchanged several emails with the help desk. Their final solution was for me to use the very basic Wireguard app instead, which doesn't block my WiFi calling. I have described this issue several times and have not received a solution for the app. Just maybe it will be addressed in future updates.
