Works okay but...
Dangus Dinky
It works well enough in China and US, not super fast but better than express or nord. The biggest issue is the lackluster customer service. They genuinely don’t care about you. I was recommended by a friend and got a link for a free month which didn’t work, so I contacted them and they flatly told me just to pay for it and “thank you for understanding”. I bought a month anyways despite hesitations and after multiple inquired with them I always get hit with short non answers and thank you for understanding. Won’t be extending for the year.
Good but Won’t Turn Off When I Need It To

I like how easy it is to connect to this app. The problem lately is that when I need to turn Astrill off, it keeps turning itself back on, and I have to waste time trying over and over in settings to toggle the VPN connect switch to OFF. In China, this means that lately (past two weeks) I’ve had to put my purchases back or forego the DiDi ride I was planning to take home—a big downer. Please fix this bug! Otherwise, Astrill is fast and reliable. Until this problem, I was liking it better than Express VPN or Nord (which is just useless in China).
Works well after update

With the new version it works like a charm. Not so many problems like with the old version but still some issues still exists
Great VPN, no longer ugly app

VPN works great, and updated app FINALLY updated for the 6/6+/X phone sizes. Still wish app was more functional, with a speed/ping test, but if you were holding off because it was an eye sore, do so no longer
Life saver in China, but getting stuck lately

Astrill is the only VPN that’s consistently worked in China for me. For the last week or two, though, it’s been getting stuck loading on the sign-in screen and I can’t turn it off. This means I can’t use any apps that require VPN, but I also can’t use apps that require the VPN to be off (WeChat, DiDi, etc.) while this is happening. I have to toggle the settings and restart my phone and sometimes that still doesn’t turn it off...my phone is effectively a brick until it finally disconnects. Four stars because I’ve been using it for more than a year and it’s worked better than any other VPN I’ve tried. However, this bug is a major one and I really hope it can be fixed quickly! Another (much more minor) quirk is that every location shows that it is connecting immediately, even if it doesn’t work. It would be nice to have some sort of indicator other than flipping to another app and trying it out until one works. All in all, I absolutely recommend this app for use in China.
Perfect

Very simple and fast vpn. I live in China and services like ExpressVPN have not been working at all however Astrill works perfectly. 10/10 would recommend.
Same issue here

In general I am also satisfied costumer of Astril vpn while living in China. Lately though, it has been updated, worked better again, but now on screen logo is keep scrolling and turning on itself even if you shut it down and exit all the apps... new update soon?
Frozen at login screen

This app will freeze at the login screen almost daily. You won’t be able to turn off the VPN or change to another. The only workaround I’ve found is reinstalling the app.
