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.


App is unusable

The app turns on and off wildly. Which won’t allow me to load any content until I turn it off.


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.

Privacy concern

It does block a lot of trackers, but not all of them. I paid to unlock the extra feature so I can add customs domain to the block list. I see it connect to “disconnect.me” and “disconnect-200-ok.disconnect.me” very often so I think what if I add these to the block list will the app block disconnect.me ? The answer is No. I can still open disconnect.me. Why this app have a lot of connections to their company server? Since this create a vpn, who knows what kind of info is being send the server even thought most regular traffics are thru you own Network.


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.
