This is a wonderful app! Keep going on Proton. In this age of poor network protection, apps like Proton are the saviors. They even offer 10 free server.
★☆☆☆☆christopher Pohl· Aug 26, 2026
It was a reliable VPN but it no longer works. Yes, I created an account with proton VPN, but I did not purchase any upgrades. I'm using the free VPN, but it used to work seamlessly on any website or app. Now it cuts me off the internet. My phone just buffers and buffers and buffers until I turn off the VPN.

Can't use it on 90% of the websites and apps I use all day without paying for yet another subscription. I literally can't afford another bill for another something to protect my existence.
