Used to be great...

I first purchased and downloaded the Mozilla VPN app over a year ago and for the first few months it worked great. However after an iOs update last month the VPN began disconnecting on its own as others have noted. Worst part is that no notification is given that the VPN has disconnected so you have to check it frequently to see if it is still connected. Keeping the app open worked for a while to keep it connected but now even that doesn’t prevent the VPN from disconnecting on its own. I contacted Mozilla support and they had me uninstall and re-download the app but that didn’t work. They then had me send them my VPN logs. They finally came back and just told me they don’t have a solution and offered to give me a refund. It seems they have just given up on fixing this issue. It works great on my laptop though...but not on my iPhone. I guess i will need to find a more stable VPN provider.

Mozilla contracts out vpn services. And One of its vpn severs in America routed the traffic to China. (Mozilla has no china vpn servers) . I discovered the Mozilla vpn server was actually a China owned server in America. Only reason i found out is because I knew Yahoo ended business in China. And while using American vpn locations I got a yahoo error message page that said I can no longer access yahoo and that yahoo was no longer in China. But I was using a u.s to u.s connection. Upon investigation, I learned exactly where the China Mozilla server was in America and I learned that China still had a cute China name for it ( in Chinese) . All because it didn't have the right settings. It routed my traffic through China . And if Mozilla replies that all of the traffic is encrypted then why is Microsoft discontinuing support for older computers (without the NSA cpu instructions) . Some experts say the encryption is brokenEdit : the screenshot was sent to the NSA.

Most software companies these days throw users into the fire and provide a few web pages they can read to try and extinguish themselves, but Mozilla clearly spent a lot of time making their VPN a clear and understandable app that also provides advanced functionality. Additionally, I can tell the development team is constantly assessing user feedback and rapidly iterating based on it. I submitted a survey recently that mentioned it would be convenient on desktop to not need a browser to sign in, and seemingly someone actually read that and changed it so good on ya Mozilla. Paid or free, Mozilla products are always worth it.

Major Headache

This app must be sponsored by Bauer Pharmaceuticals so they can sell more Aspirin, because every time I use it I get a major headache. Sometimes I can’t get the on/off switch to slide to the on position, sometimes I can but it slides back to the off position after two seconds with no explanation, and sometimes it stays on but won’t connect to a server after trying for several minutes. Occasionally it works, but rarely on the first try. Sometimes it refuses to turn off when you try to turn it off, such as when you realize that it’s preventing you from accessing the splash page on the hotel’s WiFi, and you have to reset the iPad to force it off. And what the heck is up with the all the storage space it eats up? I just checked on my iPad and the app had taken up over a half GB of “Documents & Data” storage. No way to flush it out except to uninstall and reinstall.

This update includes minor bug fixes, UI adjustments and other performance improvements, including: - Subscription management has fully transitioned to the Mozilla accounts website. - Regular key rotation, improving security in the event of extreme, unexpected situations. - If you are using that beautiful new iPhone Air, Mozilla VPN should now look even better on it. - Improvements on when notification permissions are requested when the app launches for the first time. - The navigation bar’s message icon sometimes retained the ’unread’ indicator even after all messages were read. That should not happen anymore. - Did you notice that the close button on popups was a little too low? It no longer is. - Some exciting under-the-hood work to support a future feature. - You can use Mozilla VPN in dozens of languages, and we’ve included the latest translations in this release.
