Surfshark is a VPN and online security app for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and Mac that helps everyday users browse privately, stay safe on public Wi-Fi, and reach the content they pay for while traveling. One subscription covers unlimited devices. Encryption, ad blocking, and identity protection run quietly in the background — set it once and forget it.

Developer Response
Hey, we're sorry to hear about the speed issues you had with our servers. That might be due to several factors. We recommend trying different server locations and changing the VPN protocol in Settings - VPN settings of our app. Wireguard and OpenVPN (UDP) are generally the fastest. If the problem persists, please reach out to our support team at support@surfshark.com for further assistance.
OH MY LORD

I have such a love and hate relationship at this point. Me and my fiance is in china and we use this VPN HOWEVER its not reliable, i can not connect to any server most of the time now and it has been less than a month since i have bought my 6 months subscription. The time i am spending trying to connect to a single server is utterly ridiculous for the amount of money i payed.
Developer Response
Hi, Suat, thank you for reaching out. We understand that connecting from China can be challenging for some users due to the heavy network restrictions. Currently, we recommend using our alternative manual WireGuard connection method. For further assistance with this, please contact our team via email at support@surfshark.com.
Hmm

The speed is decent, but the downside is that it takes quite a while to connect. Unfortunately, I already purchased a one-year plan. I waited around 35 minutes just to get connected, and I’m writing this while still waiting.My internet connection itself seems fine, so the issue is probably not on my end.
Developer Response
Hey there, we're sorry to hear about the connection delay. We recommend trying a different connection protocol in the Surfshark app under Settings -> VPN Settings -> Protocols. If that doesn't help, please contact our support team at support@surfshark.com or via live chat on our site - they will gladly take a look at your case.
▶ We've extended our split tunneling Bypasser to Safari. If a website blocks VPN traffic, you'll now see a prompt letting you add that site to your Bypasser list directly from your Safari browser. Once added, that site will bypass the VPN automatically on future visits;
▶ Surfshark app now seamlessly works on Apple's new iPhone Duo, so you can connect and stay protected on your new device from day one;
▶ As always, we added a few bug fixes and improvements.
