Your Wi-Fi, your internet provider and a crowd of ad trackers can all see what you do online. Windscribe, the private VPN for iPhone and iPad, closes the curtains.
One tap hides your IP address, encrypts your connection and blocks ads and trackers. 110 million+ registered users since 2016, and we've been acquired by exactly nobody.
WHAT YOU GET
• Hide your IP. Websites see one of our servers, not you. It works like a proxy, except everything is encrypted.
• Be anywhere. Pick from 135+ cities in 69+ countries, tap, done.
• Safe public Wi-Fi. Airport, hotel, coffee shop: your traffic is encrypted before it leaves your phone. Mark a network as Secured and Windscribe turns on automatically every time you join it.
• Fewer ads, less tracking. R.O.B.E.R.T., our blocker (yes, he has a name), stops ads, trackers, malware and phishing sites in every app, not just your browser.
• Get past blocked networks. Stealth and WStunnel make your connection look like ordinary web traffic at school, at work or in a hotel.
• Stay connected. Always On VPN reconnects you when the signal drops or you switch networks.
WHERE PEOPLE CONNECT
Iceland and Switzerland for the privacy-minded. Germany and France on match day. Japan for anime nights. The US, the UK, Canada and Australia to feel at home anywhere.
WHY YOU CAN TRUST US
• No identifying logs. We don't keep your IP address, browsing history or DNS queries. We can't share what we don't have.
• Our servers run on RAM, so nothing identifying is ever written to disk.
• Open-source apps, independent security audits and a public transparency report.
• Self-funded. No investors asking us to cash in on your data.

I never thought I would voluntarily pay for a VPN service until I encountered Windscribe. Their free trial is just over-the-top generous, the service works perfectly, the Netflix server locations are super useful and most of all their security bot R.O.B.E.R.T. is something I wish I had my entire life. There are simply too many things that make me love Windscribe. The app used to be buggy (couldn’t disconnect/connect to vpn randomly) but since the last upgrade it’s perfect, you can customize an « à-la-carte » plan if you don’t need all locations, marketing emails (and I’m ashamed to say it) are just the best I’ve ever seen, their Twitter is hilarious, their online help bot is 1 - actually helpful 2 - super cute and the devs are just nice people you can talk to and will help you figure out what’s wrong instead of taking 2 weeks to send auto-generated « thank you for your feedback. We’re trying hard to improve your experience blabla... » emails like other companies. A big thank you to the devs for this service (and fixing a big issue I had by releasing an update through the beta channel as we were chatting), and to the whole team at Windscribe. I love you.
Worst VPN out there

Does not work and has not worked since 2019. I have contacted support and have been unable to get my app to work since the owners changed. They do not give a &$@$ about customers and charged my card for an extra despite providing no service or help. DO NOT use Windscribe. They also request and default to using your precise location for themselves, and while you can toggle it off it is completely contradictory of the function of the app.Update to the response: I have contacted support and the app suddenly started to function again, only after mentioning potentially initiating a chargeback via my credit company though and not after my multiple initial requests. While obviously it may be unrelated the company nor its associates have done anything to make me feel as though my information is safe nor have they made me feel like I am getting all the service advertised/payed for. Based on the responses I received I, personally, will be cancelling and feel as though I have been cheated in some form. Previous issues with the company were able to be resolved in days, my latest issue took approximately 10 months to resolve despite frequent logins and attempts on different devices. I truly hope for your other customers that this was an isolated incident but I will never be returning and will ensure all my friends and family never use this service.

Fantastic VPN Service.

Been using Windscribe for over a year now and it has never dissappointed. I was originally looking for a way to block in-app and website ads and used AdGuard for about a year, but eventually it just stopped working - ads would show through or at least take up screenspace despite links not working, and website hidden popups never went away. Even using their DNS address(es) didn't work. Aside from Adguard, I've used a couple other of the "big name" VPN's like Surfshark (similar issues to adguard) and Norton (safety issues) and just couldn't justify the value of the subscriptions.Using Windscribe, it does pretty much everything I'd expect a VPN to be capable of, and on top of that it blocks ads across any website I've visited with the DNS filter. All that for just nine bucks a month is pretty killer. I think Windscribe has to be one of the most - if not *the* most consumer friendly VPN services out there, and with both mobile and desktop applications it's incredibly convenient.
Overall, Amazing VPN!
aries !
This VPN is great. It has a sleek design, it's simple to use, and it has a variety of features that you can experiment with. Me personally, I really enjoy how the R.O.B.E.R.T configurations allow you to block specific content on websites and applications. Furthermore, the amount of servers there are on the paid and free plan is also something amazing. Along with the 6 connection protocols. Those combined, you have lots and lots of combinations of servers and protocols to choose from. For me, all of this would give this VPN 5 stars, however there's a reason why I gave it 4.The coverage in China isn't the best. My first 4 days into my trip, I was successfully able to connect to LA, NYC, and Paris servers without an issue. The days following, I was completely unable to connect to any server, no matter what protocol I used. Additionally, the app just fails to connect or even attempt a connection at times. On multiple occasions I have tapped the big power button to try and connect to a server, with no animation playing or any signs of an attempted connection.Overall, this VPN is great, and I would recommend it, even for use in China.
