Ratings and Reviews
No real complaints but a couple niggles though
I’ve been a subscriber to pia since 2016 and I couldn’t be happier.
I remember asking for instructions to setup up apples mail app to send while connected to a vpn so i wouldn’t have to disconnect and reconnect all the time. I remember asking for instructions as to how to perform the setup. I have a decent knowledge of windows and iOS, but like a reviewer said, and I will say the same, it’s lost on me.
The last few months I have been using the app a lot more. I listen to a certain uk sports radio app. I was connecting through the uk streaming servers. But when it should buffer the audio, it doesn’t. So I have to stop and restart the stream frequently. So I switched to using the Southhampton servers, and I have no problem at all. So it kind of defeats the purpose of connecting to the streaming servers, if they don’t work as intended. That unfortunately is my only gripe.
Really disappointed
Hello PIA developers,
Been a long time fan of PIA, which is why it’s all the more disappointing to see the state of the iPhone app and the lack of acknowledgment of issues with the IOS application. In case it’s not clear from the most recent comments your app is broken and unreliable. To see updates coming through to the application is good to see, but made totally useless by the fact the application is broken. Have you(the developers) actually tried to use the app recently? I’ll save you some time. It works sometimes but most of the time it’s connected and no internet traffic gets through. I signed up for a year subscription because of the excellent reputation and past experiences I have had with PIA. Seems as though though this was a waste of money as the app simply does not work. Please do not try to pass this off as user error or device specific issues. Tried on 5 different iPhones using different configuration and different access points. Let me be blunt.... YOUR APP IS BROKEN. Please get it together. Based on what I’ve seen we won’t get any acknowledgment of this issue but at the very least this has allowed me to vent my frustration. Expected better from you PIA.....
Works effortlessly but prevents connectivity sometimes
I leave it turned on so it’s there if needed. Sometimes though, using mail program or internet, it prevents what I’m doing. I use iPhone 11 Pro Max. I think there are workarounds but way too complicated for the ordinary person like myself. So when something doesn’t happen like I expect (mail, searching for a website), I just turn it off. Then I have to remember to turn it in, but so far it seems to be working okay. It puts me in a location other than where I am (as it is supposed to) bit this means that when searching for stores as it brings up ‘nearby’ stores in another State. But if it protects me, I can live with these issues.
