1. 5/5why I think this is the best vpn

   I recommend this vpn to my friends all the time so I figured why not recommend it on here too-- I've been using Windscribe for 6 years and I truly think it's the best vpn out there (obviously I haven't tried every single one but). Here's why I like it: - very easy to use, even when it comes to advanced settings, since the app does a good job explaining what everything does! - has super useful features and doesn't get bogged down with extra stuff like some apps - the free version is super generous. And it's so relieving to see a service where the paid version is customizable!! You pay for what you want and it's super affordable - the developers care about making the app as accessible as possible in places around the world where vpns are banned. personally I really appreciate those values - the dev team are hilarious, down to earth, and clearly care about their product. Just for fun, they made an entire comedy short film about corporate greed. What other company does that? Anyways, I always get a kick out of reading any notifications or updates the team has - I've seen reviews saying the support was difficult. I've never personally had to contact support because everything has worked how I expected it to. So while I can't speak to that, I will reiterate that the dev team are funny! They care about helping and will, but they won't act fake-sugary-nice like most customer services anyways, take all of this as you will! grains of salt make the world go around. But I hope that this was helpful to at least someone out there in the ether...

2. 4/5Overall, Amazing VPN!

   This VPN is great. It has a sleek design, it's simple to use, and it has a variety of features that you can experiment with. Me personally, I really enjoy how the R.O.B.E.R.T configurations allow you to block specific content on websites and applications. Furthermore, the amount of servers there are on the paid and free plan is also something amazing. Along with the 6 connection protocols. Those combined, you have lots and lots of combinations of servers and protocols to choose from. For me, all of this would give this VPN 5 stars, however there's a reason why I gave it 4. The coverage in China isn't the best. My first 4 days into my trip, I was successfully able to connect to LA, NYC, and Paris servers without an issue. The days following, I was completely unable to connect to any server, no matter what protocol I used. Additionally, the app just fails to connect or even attempt a connection at times. On multiple occasions I have tapped the big power button to try and connect to a server, with no animation playing or any signs of an attempted connection. Overall, this VPN is great, and I would recommend it, even for use in China.

3. 5/5Fantastic VPN Service.

   Been using Windscribe for over a year now and it has never dissappointed. I was originally looking for a way to block in-app and website ads and used AdGuard for about a year, but eventually it just stopped working - ads would show through or at least take up screenspace despite links not working, and website hidden popups never went away. Even using their DNS address(es) didn't work. Aside from Adguard, I've used a couple other of the "big name" VPN's like Surfshark (similar issues to adguard) and Norton (safety issues) and just couldn't justify the value of the subscriptions. Using Windscribe, it does pretty much everything I'd expect a VPN to be capable of, and on top of that it blocks ads across any website I've visited with the DNS filter. All that for just nine bucks a month is pretty killer. I think Windscribe has to be one of the most - if not *the* most consumer friendly VPN services out there, and with both mobile and desktop applications it's incredibly convenient.

4. 5/5I haven’t wanted to use any other VPN

   I bought a license with Windscribe about 8 or 9 years ago. I have used it extensively and it is an excellent service. In fact, the only problem I’ve had was when I set up my router to connect directly to Windscribe, left it connected and forgot about it. Over the next six? months or so I had trouble buying tickets online and noticed when I had to connect to Windscribe using a desktop client, I had to connect using TCP. Streaming services would occasionally get weird and not let me log in. When I thought my ISP had been sold (speed tests showed an ISP I had never heard of), I checked some settings and realized what I’d done and turned the VPN off on the router and everything worked normally. My point of the story is: I forgot I was piping ALL my traffic through a VPN b/c it was so fast! (And even the double tunnel worked OK, but not recommended)

5. 5/5By far the best VPN service

   I never thought I would voluntarily pay for a VPN service until I encountered Windscribe. Their free trial is just over-the-top generous, the service works perfectly, the Netflix server locations are super useful and most of all their security bot R.O.B.E.R.T. is something I wish I had my entire life. There are simply too many things that make me love Windscribe. The app used to be buggy (couldn’t disconnect/connect to vpn randomly) but since the last upgrade it’s perfect, you can customize an « à-la-carte » plan if you don’t need all locations, marketing emails (and I’m ashamed to say it) are just the best I’ve ever seen, their Twitter is hilarious, their online help bot is 1 - actually helpful 2 - super cute and the devs are just nice people you can talk to and will help you figure out what’s wrong instead of taking 2 weeks to send auto-generated « thank you for your feedback. We’re trying hard to improve your experience blabla... » emails like other companies. A big thank you to the devs for this service (and fixing a big issue I had by releasing an update through the beta channel as we were chatting), and to the whole team at Windscribe. I love you.
