Recent connections in tools gone?. It seem like everything was working but now I have a blank page for recent connections in the tools that I paid for; Sorry gotta drop some stars until it is back. Update: Dev responded with a promised update that could fix the issue; Adding back stars for being responsive and seems to be working after uninstalling and reinstalling. Maybe just a glitch.

Great app, trustworthy company!. I'm one of those legacy users who lost functionality in recent updates. I'm relieved to see this happened because of a bug not because of developer sketchiness. Developers found the problem, they issued a fix quickly, they've got my trust 100%. Also important: The app itself is really good! Works well for monitoring, controlling outbound connections. Give this app a try!

Functional but could use more control. I like that it blocks most of what you custom block, but it doesn’t allow you to block certain Apple connecting domains, even though it states that the pro version lets you block everything. I have the pro version. It doesn’t allow you to block everything. If they want to disallow some, there should be some sort of notification of why it was disallowed. Also, I sometimes block things that I find out later has ‘broken’ certain functionality. I would love to be able to mark these with a color, and/or even add a note after unblocking. Please add these features, thanks!

Excellent component to a layered security strategy. In my experience,If your looking for a TOR based post modem vpn protection that will mask you home ip. This may not be your best choice. If your a true road warrior that uses public WiFi’s that are notorious for blocking TOR connection attempts as well as allowing device sharing protocols this will be perfect for you . Been using this app for a few years . With its local device firewall rule sets I am able to use it on both cell and Wifi without interruptions as well as layering it with a TOR vpn or TOR browser for additional security depending of the host network policies .

Accessibility Issues. I’ve enjoyed the Pro version for a couple years but remain frustrated while in iPhone’s dark mode. In Stats and activity, the date and time below each tracker is barely legible despite my having turned on all applicable iPhone accessibility settings, which reduce transparency and increase contrast. This functionality issue was fixed on other apps shortly after the introduction of dark mode. I don’t care to switch it off and on just for this app.

Confused. I do not know with this app when I blocked a site and when it is allowed. In activity it shows most recent tracked addresses with a rectangular box that says allowed. When I press the arrow next to the site a window opens in which the Term Blocked is turned on. When I save the site though, Blocked is turned off. This is very confusing. There were some sites that showed as allied that I wanted to block. specifically I wanted to block a site that had the term remoteconfig in it. Now I don’t know if instead I gave them custom permission to be on. You should at least have clear instructions for this app. I did not download it to make myself less safe.i could not find the information on the web. I will reverse my rating if this issue can be resolved.

UI isn’t optimized for iPhone SE. I understand there are new larger phones out now, but older iPhones should still be supported especially since they are still very popular due to their normal size. Otherwise, so far the app is good, not sure how much I can trust it though, considering the app is available on the play store, when article states google doesn’t allow it to be placed there.

My phone is faster!. This app is a must have along with the DNS app. It makes my phone faster and saves battery life!! I pay a yearly subscription for this and can use it with my families phones via family share and is even on my MacBook! This app was featured in a great courses audio book, talk about shoutout. If you like your privacy get this app and pay for it, remember; if It’s free you are the product.

DO NOT UPGRADE. FORCED SUBSCRIPTION FOR CUSTOM WHITELIST. DO NOT UPGRADE. The app now FORCES you to pay for a PREVIOUSLY FREE function: the custom whitelist!! I thought I already paid something for this app at one point??! Now the custom white list has been removed unless you pay monthly for it. Typical greedy Apple putting pressure on devs to make EVERYTHING a subscription. FO I won't do it. ONE STAR is generous for this piece of trash. ORIGINAL REVEWI: Love it, except for one crucial feature I really love this app and how it keeps me safe. But I add a lot of sites to it while I am browsing. The main issue for me, and why it is clunky for me, is because I am on a 12. 9 inch iPad Pro. Devs, try to picture going into this app 20-40 times daily or more to customize it and add trackers (there are so many now). Every single time I do this, I am forced into portrait only mode. Portrait in "one way" mode. WHY for the love of God haven't you implemented UNIVERSAL APP mode so that those of us with iPad Pros can have a LANDSCAPE MODE?? This is so basic and so fundamental that for now I will leave this as a three-star rating. If you ever change it, you will get a five-star rating.

Pretty good, but not like it was. When Privacy Pro came out, you could create as many lists as you’d like to block all the unwanted traffic. However, now, you are not able to create any list without opting for the Pro plan, which is currently $40/yr. I know as a free user, they aren’t making any money off of me, but it stinks to start out on a product that was free and then have it changed to a costly plan. Aside from the cost issue, Privacy Pro is a really good app. I’m not sure I believe the quantity of data blocked though, it seems unusually high.

Exactly right. For many people, running all their traffic through a VPN is overkill - and a bandwidth killer. Disconnect has the solution for folks who want to make sure their web browsing can’t be snooped and that all their Internet activities are protected from tracking, malware and abusive ads. The VPN wakes up when it’s needed and steps out of the way when it is not. This product is a gem: easy to install, easy to configure, and unobtrusive when in use.

Keeps dropping the connection (Update). This started happening with the last iOS update. I’ve used this app for over a year and I’m disappointed that something that was extremely reliable is no longer so. Updated 4/3 I purchased the annual secure connection (something I had intended on doing before this issue above) and once that occurred, I had no further issues.

App is good but stops working randomly. I do not have the vpn on, and when I check for activity I notice that it just stops logging for hours at a time. The only way to fix it is to turn the app off and then back on again. So basically there is no record of what was going on while the app crashed, and nothing blocked for hours at a time when you thought the app was working. It has happened every day, 2 weeks after installing. So I am unsure whether to purchase premium version if I have to check the app every couple of minutes to see if it is actually working.

Used to be great. I’ve been using this app for a few years now and loved the ability to customize the block list. Unfortunately I’ve lost the ability to see any activity except for blocked trackers. This means that I cannot further customize my block list based on the trackers actively tracking me. I reached out to the customer service team and the person helping me was very kind and responsive. They said they’re working with the developers on a fix, but they haven’t been able to come up with anything in the 2 months since I first reported this issue. If I can’t get this fixed, I’ll probably switch to a different app once my subscription runs out since I can no longer further customize my privacy protection.

Former Fan, moving on. Very disappointed to see crucial free features migrating to the paid version. I had previously been telling everyone about PrivacyPro’s power; it is a very effective firewall for keeping out trackers and ads while browsing and even preventing apps from sending tracking information etc. That power is now gone as the free version no longer supports user security rules. Clearly the free version was too powerful for its own good and made the additional vpn measures unnecessary—something I can confirm having tried out the paid version. I was thrilled with what the non-subscription version had to offer but without custom security rules, the free version is no better than the most basic Ad-Blocker but more user unfriendly since it has tons of unusable features until you upgrade.

Blocked App Store. Privacy Pro is a great app, so good it blocked the Apple Store app and other apps to update. That is why the app is receiving a three star rating. Rather frustrating. Spent over about 6 hours troubleshooting on my own and then a couple of hours at Verizon store and Apple tech support trying to figure out what was wrong with my phone. Tempted to reinstall this app because I liked the security it provided and then just check weekly for the App Store access, etc.

Great firewall for iPhone. I love this app. Great app to let you know all the user tracking that goes on when you visit websites and even just use the apps on your device. E.g. my old home security cam app was pinging sited in China whenever I used it... Great customization for choosing which domains to block. (Blocked the .cn China domains used by that security cam app). And you can use a partial domain to block which is great to block ad sites and other trackers. Highly recommended!

Works great, updated often. I bought Disconnect/Privacy Pro because desktop tools from the Electronic Frontier Foundation are not available for the iPhone. EFF suggested Privacy Pro and it seems to work invisibly. My main browser is Firefox. My only issue is that the VPN logo does not appear consistently which may have more to do with iOS on an old iPhone 5S.

Good but. It’s a good app to block track but poor of advanced options like: Ads,tracks and malwares block syntax by blocking keywords,a local http proxy to make it work impeccable,full tunel without icon,the possibility to share hosts from other apps in the idevice or by web Adress,add many encrypted dns,ad option to block or to whitelist domains and ip Adresses with good management. I hope you will make my dream of your good app true. Thnx for your attention.

Disconnect removes functionality without telling users. I used to like this app very much because it could seamlessly block many trackers, including custom ones that users set. Unfortunately, the maker quietly removed the custom functionality and made it a premium feature, rendering the app just ok but probably not worth downloading. It’s fine for the company to charge money for its products, but removing critical features without even disclosing it to users makes them and their products untrustworthy.

iOS Family sharing stopped working. ** Updated my rating after successful and speedy interaction with support. The app is once again performing as expected. Kudos to Codi in support who shared a direct fix with me. ** Been successfully using this for a year and a half. Recently, after an update of this app on her phone, it no longer sees the family share and asks her to upgrade to a subscription. I have checked that our family share plan is configured properly and other apps are available to her. The description for this app still says it supports family sharing, so either that's no longer true or there's a bug in the latest version. Both our phones are up to date on iOS 14.2. Hers is an iPhone 8 and mine is an iPhone 11 Pro. If I can't get this resolved I will be canceling my subscription and finding an alternative. Not happy :(

Not as good as it used to be. The blocking feature is great. Blocks a lot of stuff. The VPN now has problems. It worked fine on my iPad for a long time, but this month it is intermittent. VPN turns on and off every few seconds, allowing many adds through that were previously stopped. Even when I open the app and enable the protection, it will still turn off and the Home Screen shows red again.

Worked until I updated today. It’s always been a stellar product. Used it when it was a completely free service and paid for the toolbox and vpn services. Now I restore purchases and the banner is still there, the protection turns itself off and then tells me that I don’t have an internet connection so “products cant be loaded”. You have us over a barrel here...this is the only vpn service that does what you do. Not Nord, not Express, not Private internet access...OK, maybe OpenVPN with a crap ton of modifications. But I don’t expect to have to beg a developer to make their product work. FYI, I have not upgraded to the new iOS yet and running a perfectly good 6S+. Sorry for the bad review, but my experience calls for it.

Laggy and obtuse. I really wanted to like this but it’s too hard to use. 1) It shows trackers blocked but there’s no context on what app generates them, what their content is, where they’re going or what they’re doing. 2) You can’t select trackers or apps to whitelist, it’s basically on or off. The only customizations are things like “block more Facebook” but no explanation about what that does (or if it even works when I’m using the browser instead of a FB app.) 3) It adds more than 10 seconds lag to almost all my app interactions. I also get nasty notes from websites about ad blockers but I have no way to whitelist them if I want to. With better documentation and settings I’d definitely like to use it and pay for the subscription. As is it’s just annoying and not worth it for the dubious benefit “trust me, this is more secure”. Hope the issues can be resolved.

DNS Query Transparency and Privacy. Excellent app for reviewing your DNS queries on your device whether you are on WiFi of on 3G/LTE network with option to block DNS lookup of trackers. It can also secure your DNS queries using DoH (dns over https) using Cloudflare’s DNS servers. This keeps your DNS queries private from the WiFi and the cellular operators. The add-on paid option for encrypting http connections is a also must have privacy feature for those who travel frequently or use WiFi outside their homes. Unfortunately, there are a lots of websites that still use http (that is, non TLS unencrypted connections). The encrypt http feature will protect any potential information leakage from http connections from your device.

Privacy Amateur DumVPN. Doesn’t work as a traditional VPN, but they’ll gladly take $8/mo and suggest you upgrade again to mask IP and Location. Whether you do the trial or if you’re already a subscriber, just google “what is my IP” with “protection” on and off. It makes no difference. It will tell you where you are logging in from and what your IP address is. Wish I had done this sooner. I thought I was protected. I want my 4 months of subscription fees back. I don’t have time to report this service but I don’t have all kinds of money to donate to lazy developers either

Generally good. I’ve been using it for many months and have been consistently surprised at how many accessed it blocks, usually without my noticing any missing functionality. Over the past 24 hours I have noticed it blocking Gmail. I’ll see a notice on my phone that I have some number of unread Gmail messages, but when I go into the app it is unable to download any mail. This went on for several hours before I tried turning Privacy Pro off. A moment later all of my Gmail messages were downloaded and I turned Privacy Pro back on. This has happened another four times since then on multiple WiFi networks. Every time a new Gmail messages comes in I get a notification, but I can’t see the messages until I turn Privacy Pro off.

Works great!. Love this product and idea behind it as it allows the end user to actually see how much and who is communicating. Then being allowed to turn certain sniffs off is great! Who love to see further customizations and more detailed info on each item to be able to make better decisions on what can be shut off.

Has worked great until recently blocking Captchas??. I love this app and being able to block trackers. However I’m encountering a new problem where Captchas don’t appear at all unless I turn off the app momentarily?? Website forms get stuck in submission or give an error that the recaptcha was incorrect, when I can’t even see one.

Too many bugs on free & paid version. ****New 2019 bug alert**** My block list is gone and stopped working and I’m not able to re-block any website to start over and create a new list. As of right now I get UNABLE. Which is a new error message not allowing me to block any websites. (Yes developers, I’ve deleted/re-installed app, restored purchases, deleted/re-installed the VPN and wiped the block list AND I’ve restarted my phone.) I had the free version for a few years and was having the same issues with the blocked list disappearing and not working. I thought buying the app would put and end to the problem, sadly it did not. This app is finicky. It will only work for a few weeks. If I’m lucky, a few months. I have to check that the app is working several times a day because at ANY moment my block list will be gone and stop working. ***Unless you keep an eye on it, you’ll have zero idea that your block list is wiped and not working.**** Encrypted shows it’s still working, but the numbers are significantly lower when the site blocking stops. I will gladly change my rating to a 5 if these issues are addressed.

Great Privacy Protection. I have always liked Disconnect products. Now in light of Facebook and Cambridge Analytica, I especially like this. I just wish that it was always on by default, so that I would have its protection automatically anytime I go out on the Internet with my iPhone. Whether browsing, checking email, social media, etc.

Very good. Needs sort feature. Very good app. Blocked 5 trackers during the first five minutes of running the VPN. However, I would like to see a feature that allows you to sort your reports. Like, for example, show only blocked reports, or show reports for today only. Just a suggestion though, and this is a minor compared to the apps extensive functionality.

Could give more info.. Great app. Paying customer, but I hate having to dig through and find out what tracker it is or it’s something else needed for an app or whatever the use is. Then it’s a game of on and off or block and don’t block to see what gets an app going. There has to be a standard of these things that you can state which one goes under so we can determine what to block versus a general app based one on strict to basic blocking. Especially when there hundreds of apps and you cover a handful only. Also, there should be something like the location arrow that states when it’s in use so we can restart it versus finding out hours later. May not be possible and the widget is the best possible, but doesn’t hurt to bring it up. Thanks!

Seems to work. Installed on iPhone and does not appear to negatively effect functionality of phone. Did not notice any dramatic improvements in page loading times. App provides a comprehensive list of trackers both blocked and not blocked. Would really be helpful if app explained why some were blocked and others not. It would also be helpful if app provided information about which apps on phone were responsible for the trackers and also links to what the trackers are so we have more information as to whether we should block. Thanks.

Blocks all the time!!. Saw this on Today show and have been using it since. Am purchasing it as well. I have NO idea what it does or how it does it, but it sure does block a TON of stuff, seemingly most from Google. I haven’t noticed any interference in any apps or websites. I don’t even know what a VPN is, but I understand having one can reduce ads and spam calls. Thank you for making this simple!!!

Improvements. VPN is a bit slow; typical of all VPN services, but users should be aware. What would be useful is a filter that lets you see blocked trackers, only. And then abides of what the source is (website in browser, app?). That may be difficult, because you can only analyze traffic, not app data on device. But I suspect you might have a good idea about where the traffic is originating, if only through a bit of reverse engineering. Finding that, fortunately, most of the traffic being generated is for services I would know about if I thought about it: Apple services associated with location I have allowed (iCloud, App Store, etc.), Outlook, obvious stuff. What’s insidious is Google. I don’t run Google apps for reasons of privacy, and yet they somehow find ways to track me. That company is insidious. Valuable app. If nothing else, you get a good idea of how much data smog your iPhone leaves behind you.

I wish the Disconnect Secure mode don’t disconnect!. Hi! I don’t know if you can do something about this but I wish that Disconnect Secure mode don’t turn off by itself and then reconnect. I’m using the Pro version “paying” is there anything you can do to fix this? Hopefully you can read and reply to me. Thank you! Update: Thank you for replying and thank you because you gave me a very good customer support via email. This don’t happen to Disconnect Premium VPN so why it only happens to this one? Both applications sure works the same way. I have no disconnection with the Disconnect Premium VPN. I’m going to give you 4 stars because of the good customer service support you gave me (I really appreciate how quick and good was the help you provided me) please try to put this application to stays connected like Disccontect Premium VPN.

It used to block ads. Sometime in the past two weeks it has stopped blocking most of the ads I used to get. I know it’s not an adblocker per se, but it used to do a wonderful job of that. Now I can’t even tell it’s running, so it’s probably not actually blocking much at all now. I was considering subscribing, that’s how I came to leave this review, but not now. Seems useless now, and of course you can’t configure anything without a subscription.

After years of trying too many, this is my choice.. I’m not sure why there are so few reviews. I don’t write many but came here to offer my opinion. I’m probably Fickle, always looking for “better,” but I’ve come back to this. Why? Because it’s the cleanest, most versatile and it using it doesn’t ruin my new iPhone’s performance. Emails, web pages with photos can be blocked or loaded on demand. Even cable tv can be viewed by switching off and back on instantly. The partnering DNS app makes it even better. I won’t trash the other apps, but for me — I came back to this one.

Needs a whitelisting option-otherwise perfect. Application works great, even works alongside another virtual private network (Personal VPN)FYI this is not a real VPN, does not mask who you are and only uses that profile in order to block tracking cookies but as I said I can be used along side any VPN'S that are listed under "Personal VPN" in settings-> VPN (bottom). Nothing rose like this on the app store. Been using it for over a year and its blocked 70,000 trackers and saved 6.3gb of data on my phone alone. Keeps getting better.

Good privacy protection. Good protection and easy-to-use interface. Earlier complaints about app breakage seem to have been ironed out. Almost everything works normally with the VPN turned on. One suggestion: the newest update reset the tracking statistics in the app. It’s nice to see how effective Disconnect is, and it’s a shame to have those metrics reset to zero after every update. [UPDATE: The most recent update fixed this issue. Thank you!] Aside from that, everything is smooth. Highly recommended.

Great protection. I recently downloaded this app & I am quite surprised at just how much it blocks! The only problem I have is the app keeps turning itself off throughout the day leaving me unprotected at those times. I have to manually go in & turn it back on. Other than that issue, I love it! Great app, great idea & gives me piece of mind that my info is no longer being tracked & used!

Unique design outstanding app. For myself I find this app to be very unique and blocking everything for me! I have tried and paid for other apps that did not even come close to what this app does. I thank the developers for putting this app out for all of us to use. I bow down to the hard work they are putting into this app every day to make it better for you and myself! The updates that take place seems to always for myself make the app better and better! That’s hard to believe because for myself it’s always been a unique outstanding design app that I willingly give a 5 star rating! Yes it’s not free but I for myself have always found free apps don’t work out down the road! Download the app today now I don’t feel you will be sorry! (Really) so I wanted to say thanks again to the developers for such a great unique app! I wanted privacy protection more than just hiding where I am at and I feel this app does that for me. Thanks

Update : Pro App less reliable than Premium.. Update. Per Disconnect’s recommendation I upgraded my Premium. I was confused as to the difference between Pro and Premium. The Premium product great. Thank you! I paid the yearly for both. I will end the subscription for Pro which expires next year. Thank you! - Upgraded hoping to take advantage of the new features and help your revenue. I was thinking more features higher quality. Unfortunately the feature functionality quality reliability ratio poor. I often turn off protection then on to get connectivity, or have to completely reconnect the network. Plus have carrier visual voicemail issues. Must turn off to get voicemail (sometimes) (All default settings). Also sometimes stops working when idle and I miss important notifications or email. Will tolerate it for a short time (I paid the year in full). Otherwise will ask for a full refund. Btw all is well when off in terms of connectivity and reliability (Premium fine)

Please read. In the last 2 updates, he had trouble updating the application. I have to remove the application and download it again. I have an iPhone XR and my wife has an iPhone 7 and we had the same problem. the problem is that when you enter AppStore and select update your application does not download the update and only happens with your application because I can update all other applications normally.

Great app. This is a great app and it works exactly as described. Blocks all sorts of connections you didn't know you were making. May slow loading of some sites, which may be waiting for their ads to arrive. Be careful not to block anything important (like app updates); you can easily undo any goofs. The recent actions list lets you see what was accessed/blocked when running a given app. I already have another VPN, and it still works fine with the app's blocking feature enabled. Note that it blocks googleadservices by default. That disables the little ads at the top of a google product search.

Works fantastically..... I don’t understand how so many people have issues- I am currently running developer 12.4 beta, and within the past 30 days, this app has prevented collection of 1.4 gigs of data on my device. I have settings changed to “Agressive” and even with that, my Gmail is fine. The only adverse effect i have is i cannot click on the top search engine results that are sponsored or advocated by google, the hyperlinks will not work, and a few emails do not load (mostly advertisemen emails). No big deal for me, It’s an easy workaround for the benefits this app provides. No sarcasm intended, but If you cannot figure such easy workarounds, or if your social network apps are that important, you may need to reconsider your use of VPNs.

Feature Request: Add temporary disablement. I’ve been using it for two days, and seems to perform as advertised. My only qualm so far is that it seems to break Facebook app when on, so I need to disable it when I occasionally use FB on iOS. But then I forget to re-enable it, which is disappointing when I check Privacy Pro for current stats. Some VPN clients have a temporary disablement function for x minutes. This could be a solution. Or is there a workaround that I’m missing?

Works good except one app. Hi developers, love this app and I know it protects my privacy because some very intrusive apps do not work (however I’d still like to use them) case in point coupon rewards app “Checkout 51” says it not connected online until I disable privacy pro. If there’s anything that can be done about this I’d appreciate it. Update: discover app also doesn’t work. Credit card company.

Useless. Update after company response: That is completely incorrect. I used the app for 4 days with nothing, I mean absolutely nothing, happening. And according to the article I read touting this app, activity occurred regardless if background activity was deactivated. And a since there are no instructions, by playing around i finally see activity if, and only if, VPN is used. Considering that i have sensitive client information that passes thought my email ( I’m not even supposed to use WiFi), I do not want my whole phone’s data to go through to another VPN just to work. Original: I downloaded this after an article I read about massive data/tracking during late night hours. Per the article I also turned off my background activity. After 4 days, this app did absolutely nothing. Zero blocks. I even made the filter strictest possible and still nothing. I cancelled the subscription b/c $4.99/ mo for nothing is expensive.

Privacy pro for IPhone. Finally something that works on IPhones.Easy to use and know when you are working Privacy Pro is there working in the background.

Update👌. This update fixes all the annoyances that have plagued the app for the past year. Great to have the app back to how it was and with some improvements. Thanks

Privacy Pro. Latest update appears to have slowed things down a lot. It will unsuccessfully attempt to load a page (every two seconds) for five or six times, then encrypt the connection & we get there at last! NB, I don’t have encrypt DNS enabled. Result appears to be, that any ‘new’ page takes around 10 seconds for the initial load.

Safety and visibility. I’ve been trialing the free version and really like how I can see what’s being blocked and allowed and that I can customise what it blocks. I ran it for a few days without opening the app so I could see the impact on my battery life. I checked my battery settings and this app didn’t even register as using up battery. I’m planning on installing this on my kids’ devices. Feature request: It would be great if I could filter the Recent Activity list so I can easily see what was blocked.

I love this app! Thank you very much. I got this app several years ago for free when it was on promotion. I don’t know what I would do without this app! I used to see hundreds of ads all over of many apps and websites. With this app, no more ads and I can see what app and websites tracking me. Thank you so much for hard work. You guys are LEGEND!

Well worth it. Ive used the app for about 2 years, it must’ve blocked gigabytes of ads and junk for me over this time. Very useful encrypted DNS as well.

Just be aware it's not a VPN. Just a little confusing, I thought I'd read the correct information or I forgot between reading the website and purchasing the App and deciding on the app to buy. Anyway was surprised when checking IP location that I was still in the same region. On talking with the support people about why this was we both thought I had the VPN version. Anyway it's a great app and appears to work without you knowing its doing something which in my mind makes it good. I feel it's better than the ad blockers I've tried, ghostery as well, the only ad blocker I now have is Mozillas Focus which I used before getting this app - note it uses the same the Disconnect database so I can probably remove it I guess now.

Overpriced VPN dependent upon deliberate Apple client abuse. This is a VPN that blocks the stuff Apple and others make their money from exploiting. In short it stops traffic that you are mostly unaware of and which Apple allows as this makes them money. I’d call that consumer and customer abuse. It’s similar to the way Apple makes update to the operating system on their computers iPads and phones which deliberately downgrade your hardware until you are forced to upgrade. It’s unethical, environmentally wasteful and profitable. If you’re wondering why I’m giving this a bad review that would be because I cancelled the subscription two months ago and they are still charging me. When I went to report it to Apple I got a robot note telling me that I would not get a refund. Milking customers and offering them no way to cancel seems to be legal if your Apple?

Keeps crashing and can’t use it. Can’t use it!… keeps crashing with upgraded iOS

Great product & fantastic customer service. I've used Privacy Pro for a while now and continue to value the protection it gives. I'm also incredibly impressed with their customer service. Anytime I've had an issue, emails have been quickly responded to and they've quickly found solutions. Highly recommended.

Doesn’t log your data. I’ve read the private policy and this VPN doesn’t record any of the users data (IP, visited websites, passwords). if you use any VPN you should check the private policy because some vpns log your data and if your using a VPN to stop the government from seeing your privacy go with one that doesn’t log any of your data like this one.

Love it. Before I wouldn't understand why I was always running out of data, since I installed this app it became clear that a large percentage was used behind my back by trackers and all the useless data loaded when browsing websites.

Won't open. App keeps crashing upon open on the latest iOS, iPhone 6s. Edit: it's been fixed, and the app is working well. I've updated my review for five stars 😁

Latest update, whats happened? Allowing all ads. Fantastic app.. until latest update seems to be allowing everything, including all the obvious ads. trackers it used to block. Can manually block by going into recent activity, touch an ad, and save it, then it actually blocks it. Bug or as intended? If as intended, will just have to manually block them which is a pain but do able. Otherwise, good app.

Love the App but... Amazing job to bring back the ability for control to the user. I’ve been using this app for a while now, but recently it’s been breaking a lot of apps which is quite frustrating as I don’t know exactly what is causing the problem. So I have to keep turning it off an on. Thanks again and keep up the amazing work.

Great app!. The free version is so much better than many paid VPN’s but I’m unable to upgrade as in app purchases are not possible?

App updates need tweaking. Great app and does what it says. I paid for the full version but chose not to add the subscription, but when the app updates I have to manually restore purchases in order to block/unblock certain websites. Took a while to figure that out.

Just frustrating.... Downloaded after reading an article on the Washington Post. Somehow it repeatedly kept causing my phone to lose complete service. No wifi, data or cell connectivity. All while my son was in hospital emergency. I finally realized that was the only change on my phone. Uninstalled it and restarted my phone and connection was restored. I’m hoping it didn’t leave stuff that will continue to mess with my phone. And now I need to find how to cancel the subscription.

Useless. This VPN App will not give you a new IP address I turned it on and I still have same IP.. Ok, after last update it’s giving new IP address but all other apps (like speed net & Appstore) can still determine the original IP address in addition to that it’s unable to unblock blocked sites I don’t know how that happened but I’m sure that the problem is in the app itself as I’m using other VPN services without any such a problem So one star is more than it deserves Stay away from this app meantime coz it’s USELESS

.. .

Works Great!. Great tool for helping block unwanted ads in apps, and absolutely superb customer service. Was having an issue, and got a response within hours … even on a holiday! Been using for a few years now and definitely recommend.

VPN. This is such a great app plus it is free

A must-have app for privacy!. I was instantly grateful for this app after installing it! It is now one of the most important apps on my iPhone! The one feature I wish Privacy Pro had is the ability to tell which app each tracker originated from.

Not a traditional vpn. If your looking for something like nord this isn’t what you want. If you want something that blocks trackers and secures your data. This is what you want. Seems to work well, the free version block trackers so props to that ^_^ Upgrade to secure your http traffic. Real easy and straight forward. Hope you guys do well :) the team at disconnect seem like cool people.

Great so far!. No issues since I’ve installed. VPN is always on no matter how many times I’ve switched LTE/WiFi. Love how it lists DNS practically in real-time and gives option to blacklist each entry. Only wish I have is if it could somehow identify the requesting app

Doesn’t work on LTE for me. Works well on wifi, but blocks connection to my data when wifi not available. I have to turn the VPN off to access data. Contacted support, got a quick response but didn’t fix the problem. Please fix if possible!

Popup. Annoying popup that you have to dismiss two times, every time you start the app. I use two other apps that are using the VPN feature to block ads, NextDNS and DNSCloak. None of them bother me with an annoying popup to buy for premium feature. Guess I will continue to use them instead.

No nonsense just works. Works good

Full Device Ad Blocking. This works amazingly because you can use it to block ads in ALL applications and browsers. The other solutions only block ads in Safari. This has enabled me to switch to Fire Fox without having to put up with ads and trackers.

Great app…. I think this app is great. The only thing that would, I think, need change is the rubber band effect in the customization list. It makes it very difficult to access the bottom of the list if it extents beyond the screen, and the rubber band effect makes it difficult to keep the bottom of the list in view of the screen. Please fix. Again, great app. Thx. M. Addendum: Please provide an option to delete the Stats & activity records greater than a month so the list doesn’t slow down the app when loading or filling up storage. Btw, thank you for the personalized response. Very much appreciated. M.

NO ADS!!!! LOVE IT. I just got this to try for getting rid of ads on chrome browser for my iPad and it WORKS!!!! And please gawd keep working. Lol

Will Block All Internet Connections. With this enabled, often all connections will be blocked, leaving you no internet connection until you disable the VPN.

Not user friendly. I’m sure this app might be doing good things, but the user communication is very poor. I have no idea what the information means. This is maybe an app for tech savvy users, not for the rest of us?

Do NOT update. I paid, through an optional in app purchase, for custom blocking settings, the most recent update has taken away that service and placed it behind another paywall — this time a subscription. Please restore to me what I purchased and refrain from further unethical practices. I do not recommend any user use this application in its current state, if you have it installed do not update if you have unlocked the custom blocking settings.

DARK mode. Super App even the free version. Those domains that are blocked -the time can’t be seen in dark mode so it’s hard to know if it’s still working like it should be. Apps like this one often crash it’s true. An update could fix that -then five stars⭐️

amazing so far. i would recommend this if you want to watch crunchyroll ad free without paying for premium. hopefully this will continue to work 19/08/23

Crashes m. Doesn't work. Nice try.

Awful. Tried this after seeing it in an article in the Washington Post. It broke a bunch of connections and once uninstalled, couldn’t be fixed even though I reset all my privacy settings to the defaults. One of my favorite games got blocked and it couldn’t be unblocked at all. Terrible support page as well, no info on unblocking.

Crashes every time. Always crashes, at some point when opening or just after opening app. Haven't got it to successfully run yet.

Excellent even on free version.. I love how it keeps track in basically real-time. VPN is always on no matter how many networks you switch through. Most apps work fine with the VPN, but it seems some video streaming apps (for me CraveTV) don’t particularly like it. All in all still worth the download.

crashes every time. If you paid for app I feel bad for you, it crashes all the time and kills your phones battery. Better off with adguard (free) with tracking list enabled.

Doesn't work. Doesn't hide IP address when activated

Breaks your phone on uninstall. Tried this out and it works but had issues. Tried to uninstall and now I cannot use any other VPN. They worked before. Now if I try and use them they cannot connect. Thanks for breaking my phone!

Quick patch. A previous patch broke it on iPad but it was quickly fixed. Does what it promises with no monthly fee. I use it mostly for the wifi improvements as work wifi was so poor even my newspaper sub wouldn't load without it.

It’s Broken. Latest update made the app stop working on my phone. I can’t load the app either, it immediately crashes.

Thank you for all the blocked trackers. VERY satisfied. No more ads, no trackers, and very intuitive to use. On a daily basis it blocks more than 2k trackers and almost a 1/4 G of data. Customer service is a breeze. What more could you want?

Super. Bloque TOUT les pubs qui nous envahissent autant dans les applications que sur nos navigateurs,un écran total contre les publicités à la grandeur d'iOS. Bravo adopté 👌🏻

Does what it says, read the fine prints. Once installed as 7 days trial if you touch the information button (i) then the Read More section it tells it all: it is a VPN in the sense it does handle traffic but for DNS and http (unsecured) only. Owning the DNS means when a tracker is called the backend VPN server recognizes its DNS name and kills it. If you open an unsecured web page (http, not https) it will tunnel it also to protect it from prying eyes. All the rest of your traffic will run normally out of your current IP address. This app will NOT hide your IP, will not unblock geolocking, it is not its purpose. I think the name « vpn » is misleading, as technically this is a VPN, but tailored to act as a privacy shield, not as a pure VPN destined to hide your source IP address and location.

Good until update. With latest update the App crashes on opening.

Not working. The app is not working after the update!

Don’t have to pay for it to work. 2 issues: it breaks a website (HuffPost.com) and when VPN is off it doesn’t tell you in activity section it just wipes it all so you don’t know what “users” to let through on the device when VPN is off (eg: so you know how to stop a site from breaking while staying safe)

👉 Are you looking for an Adsense alternative advertising platform?

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Questionable VPN. This has been running for over a month and I see where it has blocked a number of tracking sites, but just now I tested the VPN capabilities and the addresses (three different sites) were all from my city, state, location, and ISP! I turned it off, and reinstalled my previous VPN, and ran the test again. This time, I was in various locations, one in Spain, and my ISP was not shown. The IP addresses were all different. That’s what a VPN SHOULD do! I’m going back to 1.1.1.1 where I can TRULY be anonymous!

👍 but NOTIFY please. I love the app except that I regularly find it off, don't know why, without any notification that it is off. So I go unprotected for hours or weeks, depending on how long til I happen to check. Please add an option to notify users when it isn't running!

Seriously no landscape?. App works mort of the time as intended but sometimes after an update, the user may find himself not protected anymore. Happened once and even had the missing vpn profile. Weird as I don’t know for how much time I was left out to dry... A small detail: bring landscape mode ffs! A Mac app would also be welcomed.

Used to be a 5 star app. I loved this app, but one their updates in the last year removed the ability to block Google Analytics, the largest tracker on the internet. I wish the developers had the courage to tell us that they nerfed their once great app. I guess Google must've paid them to stop blocking their tracker. While this app is still useful in some respects, I'm not sure if it's worth downloading anymore, now that the app allows you to be tracked by Google.

Best I’ve ever seen in 25 years!!!. Great job guys if you have a cell phone you need this. I lost my identity cards and everything and contacts info too and cards . ASAP I’m paid I’m going premium first time for any app ever it’s that good money earned!

Let me clarify for those giving one star. We have a thing called the “X” at the top of the screen, so to answer their question for the creators, yes, there is a free version. But let me get back to the app itself. It works. Other so called “VPN” that was talked about on tech sites, they were a failure. Interrupted app connections such as the typical used social media sites for example. This VPN app does not interfere with anything and my speed has not gone down, which is the main issue that most have in question. So, no downgrade in speed but with security. A win, win, situation. Please, allow iPad landscape orientation. This app is an essential.

Worked great until it didn’t work at all.. Title says it all. The app worked fantastically and then suddenly nothing loaded. And when I mean nothing, I had to turn it off to visit the App Store to check the reviews to see if others are having the same issues. They are. I’ve deleted the VPN and restarted the app and it doesn’t help. Canceling my subscription.

Great App, Needs Cloudflare App Support. This app is great at blocking trackers. However, it can't be used with Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 with WARP/WARP+ tunneling. Cloudflare support said that Apple doesn't permit them to specify their app as a "Personal VPN", only a "VPN Configuration", which is what this app also uses. So it's an either/or choice. Please add the ability to use "Personal VPN", like ProtonVPN uses, for example, so both this and Cloudflare's app can be used together!

Great app. Work amazingly well, blocking all those annoying tracker, only one issue nothing shows in the recent activity some update will be greatly needed for that. Best privacy app in the AppStore so hard. Thanks guys

Danger! Don’t download. I tried this app and it made it impossible to get email on my phone. Slowed down the loading of webpages. Many had to be reloaded multiple times. Sucked up battery like I’ve never seen. When I deleted it, I started seeing more adds on websites than ever - and different more tracking style ads that I had previously never seen due to using inherent Apple iOS blocking tools. This has wrecked my phone. I may need to get a new device to eliminate what this terrible app changed and left behind. DON’T GET THIS APP!!

The best..... This is by far the best VPN I have used. Easy to turn on and off, and out just works. Other name brands either don’t work or cause issues with the browser, and this one just works right out of the box! Thank you for the awesome product!

Great protection. I recently downloaded this app & I am quite surprised at just how much it blocks! The only problem I have is the app keeps turning itself off throughout the day leaving me unprotected at those times. I have to manually go in & turn it back on. Other than that issue, I love it! Great app, great idea & gives me piece of mind that my info is no longer being tracked & used!

Regressions. The new update broke something. I regularly have to go into and out of Airplane Mode to reset the connection as I move between wifi spots and cell towers. Five stars when it is working right. Update: A later update fixed the problem. Five stars!

Bottlenecks your bandwith. I think it’s great that it blocks unwanted connections and snooping on your phone. Unfortunately it also slows your phone down to the speed of dial up. Every single app on my phone becomes super slow when I have it running. Anything that needs the Internet takes at least twice as long, if not longer to run. I use my phone for work. It’s not worth five dollars a month for my phone to slow down to a crawl, costing me time and money.

Who can you trust?. I want to rate this higher, because it is excellent at blocking ads and I hate ads with a passion. Yet I don’t know anything about the company that makes this app. Their website offers no clues and the VPN is not highly rated in the world of organizations that rate VPNs for security and such. I’m suspicious at best. Who doesn’t like free, but what am I giving up in order to save a few bucks.

Works great but burns battery. I’ve been using this since it came out. Blocks trackers very well but recently it became the top listed app for using battery on my iPhone. I now need to turn it off periodically to make it through the day. I don’t mean to knock the app here but I can’t determine how else to get feedback.

Good functionality, could improve its usability. For example, I want to the app from an iPad tu the form factor of the iPad is the only option and it’s sideways. Could he universal? Same app for iPhones and iPads? Thank you so much!

Incompatible with iOS 16. I’ve been a fan of this app, but it is not compatible with iOS 16. The app won’t open and I am unable to disconnect the VPN through settings. It is causing my phone to not be able to stay connected to any WiFi or cellular network. Please update

Stopped working after most recent update. Now I can’t get the app to open. I tried deleting the app and downloading it again but it still doesn’t open. Iphone 6. ios 12.5.5

Issues with iPhone8. I’m a privacy advocate so it’s disappointing to write that I’ve experienced issues using privacy pro with my iPhone. I had glitches when linking to online locations from news articles. Also started experiencing dropped calls. I’ve disabled the app for a while to see if the issues stop.

Saddened. I originally used the app because it blocked the annoying pop-up ads in some of the apps I use. That functionality appears to have gone by the wayside. For the last six weeks I've noticed more and more ads that provide 30-45 seconds of interruptions to what ever I'm doing. I'm seriously considering cancelling the app since it doesn't do what I'm paying for.

Awesome. Love that so many ads get blocked within apps. It's amazing how many trackers this app blocks and how much data/time it reportedly saves. Only improvement I could wish for is to customize it to permission an individual app. For example it prevents the full functionality of my MercedesMe app.

Constantly Disconnects & Reconnects. I’ve used the app for many years without a single issue, but lately it’s been very slow, the VPN disconnects itself very frequently. It also makes my phone disconnect from the wifi often. Hopefully it can be sorted out and become a stable app again

Good but needs IOS shortcuts compatibility. I would love to be able to build an iOS shortcut to automatically turn this on/off based on a set rule in iOS shortcuts. My office wireless doesn’t allow VPN connectivity and I want to auto-engage privacy pro when I leave the office because I often forget.

What’s Going on Here?. An earlier version l was able to see separate allowed /blocked connections with green or red badges. The update separates them into different pages but some badges under the BLOCKED category have the red BLOCKED badges but mixed in are green ALLOWED connection badges even though l’m on the Blocked pages. Conversely there aren't any BLOCKED badged listings on the ALLOWED page. So what’s the skinny on the ALLOWED notifications mixed in with the BLOCKED ones on the BLOCKED page?

iPhone + IPad. I like the feature that lets you view who is attempting to siphon off personal data. My internet speeds on both devices improved. It’s also customizable with great presets. I have recommended this app (I’ve used others) to a few of my tech head buddies.

No Issues. I read a review about this amazing app in the Washington Post and thought I would give it a try and got the full version. My wish list is simple - for not very tech savvy folks like myself a little instruction book would be so so helpful: what the heck is DNS and why should I or shouldn’t I. Thanks much for the app.

Eh. I really want to like this and use it. I’m not a techie but love my privacy and this app seems robust, very robust-y. Clean interface, and lookie here, it has an enormous list of addresses that are being pinged by my phone! Cool. What apps are doing it? Is it the ios? 🤷🏻‍♂️ Apparently I haven’t been chosen to know the deep magic because it’s just the gibberish addresses, no app identifying info. What happens at those addresses? Uhh, can’t tell that either. Ok, keep your secrets, I’m done.

Can’t stream while it’s on. Figured it out today! Sometimes I can’t connect to certain services and things tend to take a long time to load. Finally realized, that it was the VPN! So I had to turn it off. Def notice no personalized ads as much with it turned on. Guess I’ll leave it on when I’m not trying to stream.

Gets in the way of basic functionality. This app gets in the way of normal activity on my iPhone running iOS 12.4. Siri will not work with the app in operation. Yes it is useful but when it gets in the way of basic functionality, it is not worth the $5 monthly subscription.

Underrated Product. I’m having a difficult time understanding why this isn’t a 4/5 star rated product. The free version pulled me in when I saw it referenced in a Wired article but it was the extremely affordable VPN that made the premium upgrade well worth it. Good luck finding a comparable, quality product out there.

updated not working. I thought it was me but after a recent Apr 2017 or so update it stopped working as well. Before it was very good and really cut out most annoying ads. But since seemed to slow downloads and could turn it off, turned off and it would turn itself back on immediately so i removed it from ipad.

Doesn't block email trackers (tracking pixels). Doesn't appear to block email trackers, such as email tracking pixels, which was the primary reason I purchased this app. (I was told by this app's Customer Support that the app does block all trackers including email trackers but that appears to be not accurate.) The app does block other trackers when it is turned on, although I find that sporadically it turns off by itself and I have to turn it back on.

Issues with 10.3.2?. Since updating, I can't get the VPN profile to activate. Seems to be the same on my iPhone and iPad on cellular and wifi. Just wanted to point the issue out. Love the software normally! (Beta 2 seems to have resolved the problem!)

Best app. If you want any VPN this is the one it works so well I love it and you should give it a try not because the comments told you but because you want to it’s up to you not me or anyone else

Unreliable and impossible to diagnose. The way this app logs what it does is horrendous and makes it impossible to diagnose why sites do not work when it is active. You will find many sites just won’t work at all, and then spend a good chunk of time trying to get them to work and then have to resort to just disabling the VPN. The app will assure you it saved you SECONDS with no consideration for having wasted MINUTES or HOURS.

Help. I just started using this app yesterday and Mcafee keeps saying that I’m having a man in the middle attack (MITM) what gives ? I’ve had Fyde for a few years and never a problem. I’ve also tried to find a phone number or email address for your company and couldn’t locate one, even on help page I press email and it just stalls never connecting. Thanks

Incredible app!. I truly miss the older app version where it did not require a subscription to block domains in the activity window. This is by fastest app on blocking any domain that apps use to capture your habits and track you only. Works wonderfully well!!!

Double check it is on if you also use another VPN. I have to remember to turn on SmartVPN after using my corporate VPN tool. Only one VPN can be connected at a time. Enhancement request: give SmartVPN ability to have notifications to remind me when it is off.

Responsive service and great app. I found the app a little confusing at first because I did not quite understand the buttons I wrote this in feedback and got a response soon after. I now k ow the app and find it amazing in trackingtrafficandblocking unwanted traffic Love it and highly recommend.

A little concerned. I was on an flight and opened up Minecraft. All of a sudden someone joined my game. I immediately closed the game and went into settings. I thought maybe the VPN was turned off. I was not. I closed the VPN then opened it again. I went back into Monecraft and again someone joined my game. If this uses a VPN how does someone join my game?

Where’s the free version? Found it 😂. Watched a segment on the Today Show and they said you had a free version for iPhones. I’m not going to pay for something that I don’t know works. Where is the free version? I’ll upgrade if I like your app. UPDATE: Emailed app support and got a response immediately! Found out how to use the free version! Reinstalled the app and I’m very happy so far.

Works wonderfully. iOS 13.3.1 on iPhone X. Always worked flawlessly, has saved me from wasting 3.4GB’s of data and bandwidth wait time over 3 months as well as stopping that much effort of trackers. My Phone is more secure because of your app, so thank you very much.

Highly Recommend. Latest version 1.7.1 works flawlessly with iOS 14.5. Their support team is extremely responsive.

Interferes too much with functionality. This doesn’t live up to its promise, beyond letting you see all of the data your phone shares but giving no guidance on what is advisable to block. Making the Google filter more aggressive than default interferes with too many websites. Great idea, but needs work.

No longer works consistently. Every time I update my OS it is a fight to get this working again. It just blocks my internet connection without doing anything. I have remove it and reinstall it over and over again. Today it’s still not working and I’ve reinstalled 4 times. I like the concept but if they can’t get the basics right, why would I pay?

This update removed every custom blocker I had. I’ve been going through my recent connections for months and blocking everything I didn’t need. This update just removed all of that work.

Looks like a money trap. I downloaded this “free” app expecting to either have limit functions or limited time. Instead they’ve set it up to give you 7 days before they start charging you $4.99 monthly, and it is really only 6 days because you have to cancel at least 1 day ahead of billing. I deleted the app immediately, so I can’t comment on how it works but I found the whole setup to be deceptive.

Trouble connecting. I’ve used this app for a while. According to its stats, it’s saved me a ton of data and time. However, in recent updates it seems to have a lot of trouble connecting/engaging the VPN which has caused me to turn it off. VPN will glad on and off in the menu bar while I have no internet connection. I don’t think anything has changed on my end, but it has caused me to disable this very useful app.

Need more information. I really like the idea of this app, and am impressed by the developer’s responses, but I don’t understand how it works and what the information I am seeing means. I’d like some sort of user manual. I find pages take longer to load than before. I’d like to whitelist sites but can’t figure out how to do it. I would be happy to pay for the app if these things are resolved, and will keep an eye on its development.
