Don’t trust themThe company was started by a convicted fraudster. They also support genocide with huge donations to the armed forces that currently occupy Palestine. It’s both immoral and unwise to support this company. Use a competitor like Proton or Nord.

Don’t buy it!Buy something like proton instead. This is one of those companies that make it sooo hard to cancel once you sign up so it keeps charging you. Just pick a better company that isn’t trying to make it impossible for you to leave

Basic functionality doesn’t workFor the amount this company charges and the level of competition it’s mind blowing that your app doesn’t work nearly half the time. Constant connection issues. It’s barely worth keeping your service that the desktop apps works slightly better, thankfully.
