CyberGhost VPN: Safe WiFi App Reviews

Not truly anonymous

How do you provide anonymity if we have to log in? As in an account is used for something. Im sure its storing data somewhere no one ever makes a blank registration and log in system without some kind of backbone.

A confusing mess...

...which is a shame given that Cyberghost is an excellent VPN service. To the reviewers who didnt realize that the free tier of service has limitations: meh. The problem with the APP: 1. As far as Ive found it isnt a gateway to their service at all. Its an intermediary to install the profile (Settings>General>Profiles). Once thats installed you turn on VPN from Settings, and I have no idea what the app is for. 2. Only 5 nations have servers listed. No way to switch servers. If you try, youre promoted to install a whole new profile. 3. After a couple of tries with this, I now cant log in at all. The app tells me Ive reached the maximum number of devices, even though my iPhone is the only one. Merp. 4. Bestvpn.coms review states that switching authorized devices is as simple as logging in with the new one, whereupon the first connection is dropped. Not true. You have to log in to your Cyberghost account and remove the first device (if youre already using it on, say, a desktop) for any of this to work in the first place. 5. The app installs an L2TP profile. Should we assume its L2TP/IPSec? Maybe, but the profile doesnt say so and it should. Regardless, its less secure that OpenVPN. Cyberghost recognizes that OpenVPN is best for its desktop users. Why would they implement L2TP for mobile devices? Cyberghost: this app is a confusing mess, use OpenVPN for mobile devices, allow easy device switching, and give users what they paid for!

Advertises free but doesnt offer free to ios

Advertises that it has a free tier for iOS but when you waste your time downloading the app it requires a premium subscription to work.

Works fine

Allows me to watch BBC programs in the UK on my iOS device and thats all that I want!

Not free

Not a free service as advertised.

Free? Ya no

It said this is free and stuff it you need to pay that is dumb dont get this app waster of time

VPN for DUMMIES

Was a beta tester for this release. Gets five stars for creating a VPN that a dummy could use. Basically, click and go with not having to worry about esoteric settings. Gets three stars for the app not picking a server location to connect to based upon ping. Instead, the logic is to pick a location based upon lack of server utilization in a given location. As such, you could live in FL and the software would connect you to Los Angeles instead of Miami. Keep in mind the shorter the distance the faster the VPN will go.
