Passepartout, VPN Client for Positive User Reviews
✓ PerfectTried the new (V3) official OpenVPN client but it didn't work on my brand new M2 Max macbook. Connected fine but would not route the packets. This one worked flawlessly with multiple connections -- Delighted - Just used the standard .ovpn connection files..Version: 2.0.2
✓ My #1 Go-To VPN AppI used to use the OpenVPN app, but haven’t gone back since using Passepartout. Passepartout is incredibly stable, quicker to connect, and easier on battery life. I use it for two main scenarios: for my DNS-only tunnel to a Ras Pi Pi-Hole at home and as a full VPN tunnel with Mullvad. Both scenarios run excellently with Passepartout. I love how I can choose a specified region with my VPN provider instead of having to load in a bunch of specific OVPN profiles. The dev for this app has been INCREDIBLY responsive, helpful, attentive, and kind. I’ve been beta testing the builds from very early on and I couldn’t be happier with the end product! On top of being a snappy, efficient, feature-packed app, it’s free. If you appreciate the app, make sure to donate or become a patron to support the dev! ❤️.Version: 1.6.1
✓ FlawlessThe automatic (on/off) switching of the tunnel is just perfect for my needs. Use to forget to turn it on when leaving my place. Now … “it just works”. 😊 Thanks a lot for this app!.Version: 1.15.2
✓ Excellent software enables lots of interesting scenariosI use this with openvpn on my network at home. Server runs on an old raspberry pi. I can remotely access workstations, camera music players all remotely withought turning control over to some cloud server in god know where Simple to configure. Never fails to work You do have to at least understand some vpn basics. This was the only one of about 5 clients I tried. Only one that worked with zero issues and setup hassles. I wish more technical software was this well done!.Version: 1.11.2
✓ I like that the VPN can be always on except when I am on my home networkThis is a really excellent app. Works with a major provider that I use without any set up. Works with my personal VPN that takes lots of set up. Thank you..Version: 1.12.1
✓ Highly recommendedDoes what it says on the tin 😊👍 Highly recommended Well worth the cost - what’s not to like - it’s open VPN.Version: 1.7.0
✓ Always on (on-demand) VPNGreat openvpn client app! This app will allow you to have openvpn always be connected and have it auto disconnect on certain WiFi’s. I have my app setup to disconnect on home SSID but when it leaves the home WiFi the vpn client connects without me having to do anything. Truly a set it and forget it app. Same works for Mac client as well..Version: 1.18.0
✓ Best VPN clientBest VPN client app I’ve used on iOS so far. It’s smooth, fast and it integrates perfectly with iOS. Great job!.Version: 1.0
✓ Excellent open-source VPN appThank you for a well-designed, open-source OpenVPN alternative that adds a lot of extra features. Developer has been incredibly responsive in helping with any problems encountered due to iOS 13 — if you’re having any issues, it’s almost certainly iOS 13 and not this app in particular!.Version: 1.9.0
✓ Love this VPN appI’ve used this app for quite some time, and I love it. By far my favourite VPN client app, it's handy to have all my VNPs under one app..Version: 2.1.2
✓ Kinda FIXED: purchases do not register: (fix:iOS 14)ORIGINAL ISSUE I was trying to get the app to add the trusted networks, and it just ate my money... it kept prompting me to restore my purchase, but it never actually added the functionality... i tested on iphone and ipad, both fail to add the functionality of the purchase update- ios14 fixed the issue (i actually found that suggestion from the developers response to another review)... confirmed working This is a great app with the added functionality UPDATE i had my friend buy the software and update to iOS 14... he is unable to get the functionality of his purchases. it's a great software if it works for you... i give it a 5 star if working, 1 star if it doesn't, and there is no rhyme no reason as to how to make it work. UPDATE UPDATE My friend in 2-3 days time had it randomly work... so behold knows why... back up to 5 Stars... just if you buy this, it might take a week to start working.Version: 1.11.5
✓ Easy Way to Remain SecureThis app is easy to use and connect to VPNs so that I can stay secure. It quickly and easily maintains privacy on public (and cellular) networks, and disconnects when on trusted networks to increase performance. It’s also much easier to use with the integrated Siri Shortcuts support..Version: 1.6.1
✓ PerfectI love that is is always on and doesn’t randomly shut off when your phone is locked. And that you can add trusted networks..Version: 1.18.0
✓ This is what OpenVPN should beSome of the instructions are confusing, and was hard for me to find, but worth it. I had been waiting for some way to do a quick push button on for a VPN so I didn’t have to navigate menus and everything. The instructions seemed to indicate that this wasn’t possible. However, as long as you have a Siri shortcut, you can use Shortcuts to put a button on your Home Screen to turn it on. I couldn’t get my NordVPN working, but with a little scripting, I can turn off my home VPN and start Nord without a hassle. I wish more developers would update good apps like this to use new Apple API’s. Keep up the good work. I have pretty much chucked the OpenVPN app. It was hard for me to import my ovpn files, but once I got them in iCloud, I was able to figure it out..Version: 1.15.2
✓ Happy but not happy...Update: It works now. I’s been “stuck” on LA for a while (I still don’t understand what was wrong), but now I’m back in NY. Thanks for the answer, I’ll contact you if needed. Orig: Safe open VPN...was happy with it! The problem is, it always connects to Los Angeles servers. I opted for Eastern US configuration, but the “automatic” Endpoint within the app always connects me to LA. If I chose the “manual” Endpoint and link it to my VPN provider’s US Eastern configuration, it fails to connect (it keeps trying but it never succeeds). I’m thinking to delete it..Version: 1.14.0
✓ Can’t believe it!I downloaded this a year ago but didnt really look into it, and this has been the solution I have been looking for. Having Openvpn client on my iPhone which uses DoT as DNS resolver! Thank you! Will definitely make some donations. Keep up the good work..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Great app so far!Open source, transparent about data collection (there is none), connect on demand and the option to keep wifi (and hence the vpn tunnel) up during sleep. It seems even better than the official OpenVPN Connect app (which, for some unknown reason, cannot keep wifi up during sleep). Great stuff!.Version: 1.0
✓ Works wellApplication is completely free if you configure the vpn profiles manually. Would be nicer if there is a kill switch..Version: 1.18.0
✓ Great way to manage VPN profilesThis is a great way to manage multiple VPN providers and personal VPN profiles. However it only supports OpenVPN. **To the Developers** As a feature request I would highly suggest adding WireGuard support in as well, which would make this the perfect one-ring-to-rule-them-all of VPN clients. Thanks!.Version: 1.11.3
✓ PerfectThis is the best OpenVPN app in the App Store. I hope the developer keeps updating the app despite the failed Kickstarter campaign..Version: 1.11.5
✓ Awesome VPN appReally intuitive and easy to use interface. Only downside is that .ovpn files aren’t detected by the file picker, but changing the extension worked fine for me..Version: 1.11.2
✓ Solid VPN app!Using a raspberry pi for a VPN/DNS server I was searching for anything that worked better than openvpn connect and found this. Having used it since about a month after it came out I’ve been very pleased and the only feature I wish it had has already been added. Solid app and works great! - the feature added was the ability to have a password for the VPN profile. I’ve worked in the “cyber” domain for 6 years and love the ease of use. I’ve recommended Passepartout to quite a few people at work..Version: 1.11.4
✓ Almost thereVery good app that allows the connection to latch even if the device is sleeping. Only issue is that VPN throughput is a lot slower than with OpenVPN Connect. I hope the developer fixes this soon. MY RESPONSE BELOW —> Response to Developer’s Response: It is slower on both private server and popular providers. I noticed that with Open PN connect, a tun interface is created with a standard MTU of 1500. With Passepartout, it always weirdly picks 1250 and doesn’t even pass any tun-mtu or related values back to the server. Since Passepartout completely ignores tun-mtu and it’s related settings, there is no way to fix the bad throughput on the client end. Fixing it on server end is not an option for a lot of us since it will mess up lots of other clients or we may not be in control of the OpenVPN server. Please can you add the capability to manually change MTU or please pass the mtu values to the server and use standard MTU of 1500? Thanks..Version: 1.12.0
✓ Best OVPN client.Worth the in-app purchase. OpenVPN Connect forces you to import profiles one by one which is time consuming for providers with multiple server locations. This allows for integration of VPN providers and importing custom .ovpn configuration files..Version: 1.15.2
✓ Great VPN appGot it for trusted wifi setting and works very well.Version: 1.8.1
✓ Great Lightweight VPN appExcellent on battery life, turning itself off if I accidentally leave it running..Version: 1.0
✓ FantasticSuch a great app using my own ovpn file connected to my home network the ability to auto connect when I disconnect from my home WiFi is fantastic. Keeps me secured at all times..Version: 1.0
✓ Sublime. No more openvpn disconnectionsUsing this app with Windscribe has actually fixed my vpn disconnection problems on sleep or network change. It gives me advanced options to manage my connection and debug logs. And it’s an open-source project. Respect to the dev.Version: 1.8.1
✓ Disables VPN on home networkWorks GREAT. Went looking for a different app to use with my PiHole and PiVPN. I wanted the VPN to turn off on my home network (the official app doesn’t do this). This one does and it works perfect..Version: 1.3.0
✓ The Gold StandardThere’s really no comparison between this app and the official OpenVPN app, or really many individual VPN providers’ apps. This “just works,” and does so reliably. My only suggestion would be to look into including more VPN providers (e.g., ExpressVPN) in the template list. Also, maybe just me, but I’d be more so interested in a subscription-based (yearly) model to always have new features versus the pay-per-feature model..Version: 1.16.0
✓ Go From Secure - to - BulletproofYes. It’s that good. Some many of the best VPNs all utilize an open VPN model, it’s simply more secure. iOS/Apple has always been a system where a complex application/program that require a lot of time to setup and access openVPN servers. If you have an application like VyprVPN, or ProtonVPN, bring your iOS application to its full potential make the chameleon protocol actually work the way it’s supposed to. Take the secure core technology of ProtonVPN to another level. Simple to get started, with all the right features, and none if the weight/fluff. I imagine I’ll be using this on any iOS device I have, for a really long time. Sometimes I have some connections issues, and wonder if the app utilizes the killswitch features of say VyprVPN. It seems that the worst thing could be a 10 second window w/ a tunnel up. Still love this app! Great job.Version: 1.10.1
✓ Better than the official clientSiri shortcut integration makes this infinitely more useful than the official client. Thanks for such a well made and easy to use app!.Version: 1.3.0
✓ Very Good!I was looking for a VPN client that would work with both Wireguard and OpenVPN with on demand functionality based on the WiFi I was connected to. This checked all the boxes! Great client app for most of your VPN needs!.Version: 2.1.1
✓ One VPN app to rule them allI was looking for something that could consolidate my personal home VPN connection and my paid-for VPN service (Nord), AND supported autoconnect and whitelisting... and this one is it! I use to juggle between two apps (openVPN and nord’s own app) but this one covers everything I need and allows for easier switching between the two without me having to switch between multiple vpn profiles in iOS settings..Version: 1.11.3
✓ Best OVPN managerConnects faster than OpenVPN client, gives you more control and allows 2 OVPN configurations without asking for a penny. Best of all, it integrates with the Files app so no messing about emailing yourself OVPN files. So user friendly - just select ’host’ and add. Best app I ever installed..Version: 1.10.1
✓ PerfectWas looking for an OpenVPN app that would disconnect the VPN to my home network when already connected to my home WiFi, and this does that seamlessly..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Exactly what I was looking for.I was looking for an app that would run open on profiles but have trusted networks disable profile. This app does that. Then I found out I can change the DNS of profiles different from the config file. This I great because it allows me to change my VPN providers DNS to an ad blocking one but still have VON for all other traffic. Thanks. One suggestion. If we could chose which profiles would be used for which networks, that would be great. I would have a profile for cellular different than one for public WiFi. But other than that this app works great..Version: 1.8.0
✓ Why does the shortcut execution require opening the App?Why does the shortcut prompt to open the App when enabling VPN? This prevents the shortcut from running automatically when the screen is locked. Could you please help upgrade this feature? I really love this Passepartout! I hope you won't disregard the users' needs!.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Best VPN Experience AvailableLoads of great features and support for all the common 3rd-party VPNs like OpenVPN and Wireguard. I can't tell you how great this app is! You won't regret the download!.Version: 2.2.1
✓ This app offers everything the official OpenVPN app doesn’tI host my own vpn server at home. This app allows me to keep the vpn connection always on for any network I connect to but automatically disconnects when I connect to my trusted home network and reconnects when I leave home. The fact that I can just set it and forget it is amazing and it’s very weird that this isn’t built into the official OpenVPN app. Please consider buying this application as there is quite literally no alternative and this app should be considered just as viable if not it more viable then the official OpenVPN app..Version: 1.11.5
✓ The go toWorks with ovpn and wireguard on all devices wow. Very stable and fast, love the UI and simple enough for the less tech savvy to easily navigate A.Version: 2.2.1
✓ Has features that don’t exist in the OpenVPN appWhen I saw this app, I wanted to give it a shot because of its simplistic look. Not overall fancy and close to the style guide of IOS. The feature that I love the most is the ability to conditionally turn on VPN connections based on the network your phone is currently using. For instance I want to be connected to my vpn when on my cell network but not when I’m home. Being able to conditionally do that is great. It has a nice ability to stay connected and continues to work well. Due to my poor vpn profile configuration, it was able to tell me what features it could not use which is convenient. The reddit community for support has been great and continues to help assist me when I have questions..Version: 1.0
✓ Excellent Multi-VPN App!I had previously been using both OpenVPN and the NordVPN apps to manage access to my home network. When I discovered Passepartout, it solved two problems with one app. Pro Tip: Setup shortcuts, it'll save you the time from manually going into the app when you want to swtich VPNs..Version: 1.17.2
✓ Much nicer OpenVPN client for home routers with VPN serversIf you want better than iOS’s built-in PPTP VPN you might be looking at the OpenVPN client but it’s missing features you’re used to for consumer friendly commercial VPNs, like auto joining based on where you are. This supports those while also letting you connect to your own OpenVPN server..Version: 1.0
✓ Thank you!This is an amazing and very useful openvpn client. Support for obfuscated connections is the only missing feature which I’m very much looking forward to in this app..Version: 1.0
✓ Works great with PiVPNI have a raspberry Pi 3 running PiVPN on my home network and this app works great with the .opvn profile generated by the Pi right out of the box. I especially appreciate how the app automatically enables and disables the vpn when it disconnects and reconnects to my home’s WiFi network..Version: 1.12.1
✓ It just worksNot much to say really. I’d given up on the OpenVPN client which wouldn’t work on iOS for me and came across this which worked straight off..Version: 1.8.0
✓ New to iPhone...App solved my biggest issue!I just moved to an iPhone 12 from nothing but Google pixels and nexus before that...On all these devices I ran open VPN client which would automatically connect to my personal VPN based on Wi-Fi trusted networks. I was considering switching back purely for that function until I found this app. Within a few minutes I had it up and running and tested multiple times successfully! Works great using OpenVPN!.Version: 1.12.0
✓ Great VPN client!This app is fantastic! I’ve used the built in VPN client in iOS for years. I always had to remember to turn the VPN on, even if my device went to sleep briefly. I set up Passepartout with an exception for my home network. It just works! Often when I’m connected to wifi network outside my home, I think, “Oh I need to turn on VPN”, and it’s already connected. I love this app!.Version: 1.6.0
✓ Fantastic OpenVPN alternative.Passepartout trims off the fat of OpenVPN's stock iOS client, focusing on being efficient, lightweight, and secure, while still packing in robust configuration settings and useful features. One unique feature of note to me is trusted networks: Passepartout can automatically disconnect you from your VPN upon connecting to trusted network(s) of your choice. For example, your VPN could automatically disconnect anytime you connect to your home network, and automatically reconnect upon disconnecting from it. This is extremely useful for anyone who has a VPN configured on a network level at home, but wants to be protected when on the go without any manual work. Passepartout can achieve this! Not to be cliché here, but overall, it just works. And without any added fluff! I reckon I'll be using Passepartout for a long time to come..Version: 1.0
✓ Great butHow about Wireguard protocol support?.Version: 1.16.0
✓ One suggestion, otherwise awesome.Although its interface isn’t as snazzy as that of OpenVPN’s official app, Passepartout excels where it really counts: functionality. Lots of great features, and works better than the official app. Also, nice name. One suggestion: Allow the user to edit all aspects of the VPN configuration. Right now, the user must choose from options in a list for some parts of the config. Also allow easier viewing and copying of info about the configuration (sometimes info is cut off with a “...”) With these minor tweaks, this app deserves six stars..Version: 1.11.5
✓ AwesomeExactly what I was looking for to setup my Pi-hole over LTE and OpenVPN. Allows manual dns intervention which is needed for Apple devices that don’t respect what the server tells them..Version: 1.11.5
✓ Best OVPN App For iOS. Hands Down.I was searching for a way for my Mullvad VPN connection to persist even while my device was locked and came across a post on reddit by the developer of Passepartout mentioning that very feature. I’ve been using this app for over a year now with zero complaints, and it keeps getting better. It functions like native iOS menus and is super user friendly while still maintaining advanced functionality. And now I can log directly into my Mullvad account without having to bother with ovpn config files. Skip OpenVPN and just get this instead. Keep up the great work!.Version: 1.10.1
✓ Great interface but missing killswitch?Just bought it after found great reviews. I am using okayvpn private server and somehow its keeps disconnecting which means ip is leaked. Also, most essential feature Killswitch, is that missing or i just cant locate/see it?.Version: 2.2.0
✓ Just here to add another 5 STAR!I love clean apps that just work perfectly! I can't pay the developer fast enough! Love WireGuard, but not the WireGuard apps....Version: 2.2.1
✓ Great app!Does exactly what it sets out to do. Setup is extremely easy. It’s easy on the battery as well. About the only thing missing a kill switch for all network connections if VPN is lost but I’m certain Apple prevents this function..Version: 1.15.1
✓ Amazing!I have been using this app for quite a while now and had not had to use any other VPN app. As soon as I leave my home the VPN kicks in, once I get home VPN disconnects and I do not have to do anything! I can now take my home adblocking everywhere I go!.Version: 1.11.4
✓ Great app with great functionality.Great app with great functionality. Very stable in my experience. One request. Add (specifically) a passcode setting (not necessarily tied to Face ID. I would like to add this to my child’s device and lock them out of it to prevent changes. Thanks for the great app.Version: 1.18.0
✓ Exactly what I was looking forThis VPN client is exactly what I’ve been looking for. The ability to designate trusted networks and automatically connect to VPN otherwise is great! App functions well and has a good FAQ for a problem I encountered with my .ovpn file and external files which cleared the issue up quickly and easily..Version: 1.9.0
✓ Great appIt's a really good app, and the fact that you can have all you VPN from different providers all in one place is superb..Version: 1.12.0
✓ Great UI butWhere's the Wireguard protocol for providers that have it?.Version: 2.0.0
✓ Definitely the best VPN Client for iOSUI is very clean and straightforward. It does provide trusted connections to disable VPN in known wifi's..Version: 1.5.0
✓ Truly excellentFinally something the blows OpenVPN Connect straight into the bin where it belongs..Version: 1.8.1
✓ Fast and handyThis is a great app for OpenVPN and the said/cellular filtering actually works..Version: 1.15.2
✓ Need IVPN And Torguard As ProvidersLook fine and does the job but as title says.Version: 1.8.1
✓ This is all you needBrilliant app, makes life easy compared to the alternatives.Version: 1.11.4
✓ Better than official wireguard appThe official wireguard app was having problems connecting every time. Switched to passepartout and the problem resolved instantly. Only gripe I have is I newly installed the app on my iPad, and the configs I had on my iPhone were automatically present on the iPad. Can’t connect both at the same time, as it is the same config. I wonder if I changed the config on iPad would it update to the phone and simple never allow both to connect simultaneously. For now, I just don’t connect both at the same time. I’m guessing it has to do with iCloud..Version: 2.1.1
✓ If you care about WireGuard…Easily the best client for connecting to WireGuard! Easy switch on/off, no weird hidden background tasks or startup items that you can’t disable (like on the official WireGuard app). Nearly perfect app!.Version: 2.0.0
✓ Refreshingly thoughtful and well designed app!I was kinda anxious about how difficult it would be to setup an openVPN client on my phone. My VPN provider provides their own app with everything set up, but I needed to add a new home VPN I set up myself. Was I going to have to fiddle with endless configuration options? Was I going to have to do a bunch of in-app payments to make it do both? The answers turned out to be nope and nope. Really dig this developers style: it's clear they’re committed to quality and community engagement. More developers like this please. Well done..Version: 1.6.0
✓ It is one of the best…I went for both the iOS and Mac purchase. I was disappointed to find out it doesn’t allow for SOCKS configuration with WireGuard. Not sure why that has not been implemented. I hope it is soon. I’ll definitely use the ‘Tip’ in-app purchase for it. Additionally, while not a big deal for me personally, the server lists for the providers could really use some updating. While I am on the subject of “wish list” requests, the ability to edit the entire conf. file inside the app would be fantastic rather than having to edit outside and then import and setup a new connection in-app and apply preferences again. I’ve tried A LOT of VPN apps to use with my provider of choice though and this app falls in the top three. Big thanks to the developer for their time and dedication to working on it, especially since I am guessing it is a side-project..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Excellent!Between work and personal setups I was using OpenVPN, TunnelBlick, and a custom app from my VPN provider (I think it was an electron app 🤮). I was looking for a WireShark client for iOS and stumbled accross this. When I saw the capabilities I instantly paid the in app purchase for both iOS and macOS. Now I can seemlessly switch between work and personal VPNs in a single app. If you have to manage multiple VPNs I can't recommend this enough!.Version: 2.1.2
✓ Great!I’m a long time user of OpenVPN Connect, but after installing iOS 14, I had the need to look for an alternative. This app is amazing. It does everything the official app does, plus adds capability they said was impossible with iOS. Restart on demand after reboot, keep alive, etc. Having the same app for 3rd party VPN is awesome. The only issue I have is that NordVPN doesn’t work at all. PIA works great. Please refresh the add host screen so that adding ovpn files through iTunes shows up. I needed to force close the app to get them to be processed..Version: 1.11.5
✓ LawdkratosIt’s a very good app my only complain is that it’s slower than the regular openvpn client. Can you please work in the speed?.Version: 2.2.1
✓ ImpressiveLove how this works on ios and macos and syncs the VPN configurations - something i've never seen before. speeds seem to be great too. will update as i use further and explore shortcut support, etc..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Works fantastically!!UPDATE: The app now allows comp-lzo (see below) and has started integrating VPN providers directly into the app. There is now no need for multiple VPN apps - this one it all - perfectly and quickly. Very impressed with the developer. Totally five stars!!! It does everything it says it will, quickly and efficiently. Not heavy on battery use. Only current issue is that many VPN providers use “compression framing” (comp-lzo) in their protocol which causes the app to connect but not transfer any data. Until VPN providers change that, they won’t work with this app. I can confirm that Mullvad VPN works great with this app..Version: 1.4.0
✓ Pretty interface with fine tune controlLove it! Only thing is I wish there was an explicit killswitch mode to prevent internet when disconnected from the VPN..Version: 1.12.0
😕 Passepartout, VPN Client Negative Reviews
