## What users report

Ratings on platforms are not representative and sometimes manipulated; they never count as evidence for facts. People mostly write when something goes wrong: hardly anyone posts “KYC was easy and worked right away”, but ten users with verification problems do, often because a step was missed. So we never weigh criticism on its own, only against other offers in the same category. Only the average ratings on App Store, Google Play and Trustpilot count towards our score, damped and compared within the category. Single reports and community posts do not, so the score cannot be swayed by bought reviews.

- App Store: 4.1 / 5 (250 ratings, 2026-10-31)
- Trustpilot: 4.6 / 5 (22 ratings, 2026-11-01)

**Praised:** Apps (1), Connection stability (1), Speed (1)

**Criticised:** Connection stability (3), Apps (2), Billing (1), Unblocking & censorship (1)

- App Store · 5 of 5 stars · 25 Sep 2026: „…Ich nutze IVPN jetzt schon eine Weile und bin insgesamt sehr zufrieden. Die Serverinfrastruktur ist stabil und schnell, die Verbindungen sind zuverlässig und die App läuft rund.…“ [Read on App Store](https://apps.apple.com/de/app/id1193122683?see-all=reviews)
- App Store · 2 of 5 stars · 25 Jul 2026: „VPN connection problems Wireguard has issues reconnecting to a network. Works only when manually turning the vpn on and off. Unusable since it stops me from using internet.“ [Read on App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id1193122683?see-all=reviews)
- App Store · 5 of 5 stars · 24 Jun 2026: „Top security Great product! High levels of privacy. It lets you set up custom DNS on smartphone apps, routers, and Windows apps, and in addition to three protocols, it also supports DOT and DOH. It doesn't have many servers, but it does support multi-hop. It's less stable on iPhone than on Android.“ [Read on App Store](https://apps.apple.com/it/app/id1193122683?see-all=reviews)
- App Store · 5 of 5 stars · 11 Mar 2026: „Slow responsiveness The app is a bit laggy. It works but there is a bit of lag between when you select something and when the screen reacts.“ [Read on App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id1193122683?see-all=reviews)
- App Store · 5 of 5 stars · 9 Dec 2025: „…Obfuscation wasn’t working for me at some public wifi when it was in beta, but the latest update fixes it, at least for me. I can now connect with WireGuard with additional features instead of IKEv2. YMMV if connecting to different networks, of course.“ [Read on App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id1193122683?see-all=reviews)
- App Store · 5 of 5 stars · 16 Nov 2025: „Excellent ongoing support I've been using iVPN for over 6 years now, and the service and apps continue to improve and work very well. We travel a lot, and have used iVPN all over Europe with excellent results. Throughput and connectivity are very good. The service continues to get better. I trust this VPN provider to protect my privacy.…“ [Read on App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id1193122683?see-all=reviews)
