Works pretty well for a free app. Super cute and fun style, easy to use. Split Bear UI could be improved with a select/deselect all function and a longer scroll window. Would also be good to know why connections fail to be established sometimes, but I'm new to VPNs so maybe this is normal. Also, if there can be more short-term subscription packages (1, 3, 7 days for instance) at reasonable prices, it would be useful for travel to certain countries.

So you are given 500mb for free to test the speed degrades to around 40%of your original speed most of the time. It varies, you can torrent, game on it with multiplayer servers. Very easy to use and ads free. You can get more data with a simple tweet. Honestly the price is worth it. Not the greatest vpn but still on the top list of the best especially for their free data allowance which is quitw unrestricted in speed. You get a good idea before buying.

Desktop works fine (with paid subscription as free tier now usually connects to a server in your own country which is useless), but mobile app lately is even more useless. "Oops, something went wrong, please try later" when opening, unless you uninstall and reinstall the app again (and that would only let you connect once, next launch you are quite likely to see same "ooops" message).

Rawr. 🐻 We're sorry to hear about the trouble with the mobile app. Reinstalling the app every time is definitely not expected behavior. Please send us your device model, OS version, and app version so we can investigate the “Oops, something went wrong” error further. 🐻💛
