The problem is that it disconnects itself at nights

Latest version 6.1.14 is not working for me. If I update it won't work. I am keeping version 6.1.11
★★★★★Tony Cima· Jul 24, 2026
Seems to work. Is a permanent notification stating the app is running really necessary?
★★★★☆Eric Gultom· Feb 3, 2026
This VPN sometimes has difficulty connecting to the network. It often requires several connection attempts.

The worst app does not support android phone always page will not display
★☆☆☆☆Wajahath Rahman· Jul 12, 2026
Disappointing update — Version 6.1.14 bug. After updating to version 6.1.14, the application is unfortunately unusable. When attempting to connect, the interface bypasses the credential verification step entirely. Instead of prompting for a username and password, it immediately throws a generic "network connection error." Please look into resolving this authentication loop as soon as possible.

Does not work anymore. Constantly logs you out, so you need another data source to log in thereafter the VPN disconnects when you try to connect to your Wi-Fi causing and endless loop of logging in and disconnecting
