    Half the websites don't work on any servers. They work only on specific servers which is a known issue with vpn applications but the way proton vpn ignores this is a huge drawback with this. Customer service just points to faq on thier website. I have been using this for almost four years now and everytime I contact them about this, I receive the same response that their developers are working on a fix. After 30 days of refund period, the speeds go down by almost 20% connecting to the same servers. Suddenly removed openvpn protocol without any notice by saying that wiregaurd is safe and fast. Wouldn't have renewed my subscription if there is a notice.
  • App works great. No widget on iOS 18 (yet)

    I’ve been a Proton VPN user for years now and it’s a great service. However with the recent iOS update, the widget has disappeared.

  • Expect Throttling If You Don’t Pay.

    I’m not really impressed. You don’t have to throttle my speeds to try to incentivize me to pay for your VPN. It just makes me more likely to stop using your service. Just generally a crappy way to treat a customer if you’re going to offer a free plan in the first place.
  • Runs Smoothly and Transparently Same as Desktop App

    Updated +5 Star review thanks to the Proton Dev who promptly jumped on my earlier confusion regarding Domestic vs Foreign VPN servers being handled differently on the desktop and mobile versions. Big Proton fan here from email to VPN. You can go wrong choosing Proton for securing your online privacy.
  • Reasonably Fast

    At this price this VPN should be as fast as the more prominent VPNs such as Nord, Surfshark, Express VPN but the speeds are lackluster at best. Speeds in the US are very slow. Installing Proton VPN on my Mac was a pain. Instructions on the Proton website are out of date. I retract my complaint of slow internet speeds. Proton VPN seems to have internet speeds on par with other top tier VPNs. Nord VPN still seems to the quickest overall.
  • It doesn't connect in Russia. Changing the protocol doesn't help

    Proton app is totally unstable and unreliable connection in ios. It is totally a scammer. Adding servers from a lot of countries from very low democracy index countries and unable to provide secure server connection. I do not believe proton is originally Made In Switzerland. Made In Switzerland apps are not poor quality! Proton is very bad and unstable. I will use another vpn when this subscription end.
