About this app

Have you ever farted on a packed plane, panicked, and started hoping and praying no one knew it was you? Now imagine the plane is the internet and your fart is your browsing history. The passengers sitting next to you are your ISP, advertisers, and government agencies. And let’s just say they love the smell of a good fart. Without a VPN, they would instantly know you farted. Then, on top of that, every time you went back on the internet, you’d be forced to watch ads about farting, and travel recommendations to bean farms around the world.

When you enable Windscribe VPN, it’s like flying on a private jet: you can fart all you want; there are no ads, and you’re the pilot. With Windscribe, no one even checks your passport - you can go wherever you want, whenever you want, without being tracked or being forced to watch videos on how not to die. Since Windscribe adds an additional layer of encryption to your traffic and routes it through secure VPN servers, it’s kinda like farting in the Wind. After all, if you fart and no one can smell it… how can they know you farted? Exactly. It’s literally science.

Borderline insane hypothetical fart analogies aside, Windscribe VPN offers you a ton of security and privacy features, such as:

Ratings and reviews

When it works, I love it, and think it's great. I have the Pro version after being a free member for awhile. I only use it for streaming UK & Ireland content from the US. Unfortunately, every time there's an update from these apps, I run into a lot of problems. :( Yesterday I couldn't access BBC iPlayer on my fire tablet, but could on my phone & could access everything else. Now I just did an update, & can't access anything accept RTE. :( I love Windscribe, but I'm wondering if I can do better.

It's good for daily use, but i had two weeks where It randomly disconnected and I couldn't figure out why. I spent a while troubleshooting and I eventually narrowed down the problem to the protocol I was using and switched to wireguard. The manual protocol setting was totally useless for me and only the "preferred protocol" setting actually did anything. It works fine now but still has minor issues, mostly just annoyed I had to really try and get it to work.

I've been using this for years, got the pro version "for life" for a very reasonable price back when Windscribe started. I haven't had any problems until my Pixel 7 Pro updated to Android 15. All apps updated, but Windscribe wouldn't connect anywhere. A couple of weeks in, I decided to uninstall and reinstall, everything works again. It's a really good service. Enjoy.
