TunnelBear: Secure VPN & Wifi for Positive User Reviews
✓ Completely stopped internet accessSo for the past day I was completely without internet access, even with WiFi. I was really confused, so I tried deleting TunnelBear and that’s exactly what it was. The app only allows you to use 500MB of VPN use per month, which lasted me less than a day. The app does not even notify you when you have ran out. Even when you have the VPN disconnected on the phone it still doesn’t allow internet use, you have to completely delete the app. This VPN is useless, the free version only allows you 500MB which lasts less than a day and then it forces you to put in your password to purchase the premium version. I will never use this app again and I recommend it to no one..Version: 2.11.1
✓ Very simple working VPNTunnelBear has to be the first VPN I downloaded on my phone that actually works. It stays connected, and unlike the other ones I tried it has a option to connect the VPN on demand instead of having to reconnect it yourself when it disconnects. It never disconnects, and when it does it turns its self back on, it has fast service, and doesn’t take awhile to connect unlike some others I tried, actually has more than a few options to choose from when you want to connect than just 3-4. I currently have been using it for only a few days, but I am loving it so far, and I am going to continue to use it..Version: 4.1.8
✓ SO AMAZING!!This is by far the best vpn I’ve ever used. Its fast, easy and works so well. I love the idea of having a free option with an understandable amount of use per month rather than having to annoyingly switch from free to money after a certain amount of time like other apps. Awesome!.Version: 2.14.4
✓ A well made VPNA good VPN but with bears.Version: 4.1
✓ I love my tunnel bearI don’t know why this isn’t the top vpn , they do an amazing job without charging you an arm and a leg.Version: 4.4.2
✓ Why dors it have usage data? My other vpn app doesnt not have itShould not have to need usage data?.Version: 4.4.2
✓ Great VPNThis is my 2nd year/2nd device using TunnelBear VPN & i really do like it. it has an awesome macOS app for my MacBook as well, so that’s great. i pay for the Yearly Unlimited (2nd year now) & i do love it. the only complaints i have is that i can’t use the VPN switch inside the Settings app, i have to open the TunnelBear app. there isn’t even a widget for the Today View to easily turn it on. also, it doesn’t offer any type of ad blocker at all. it has BlockBear as a little brother, but that’s more of a content blocker that works only within Safari. i would give it 5 stars & recommend it 100% , *IF they added an Ad Blocker (iOS-wide/all apps, not just in Safari) feature within TunnelBear like other VPN’s have. we pretty much have to chose whether we want privacy or want to block ads. why can’t we just have both? TunnelBear doesn’t seem to work simultaneously with other adblocker VPN’s like AdBlock by FutureMind for example. only one at a time. please consider adding this, so we don’t have to choose anymore. that aside, i really would recommend it. it’s pretty great otherwise. 4stars for now!.Version: 3.5.3
✓ Nice and speedyI first tried TunnelBear because The New York Times Wirecutter recommended it and I appreciated the strong privacy policies and security audits. After a few days of trying it, I’m loving it. I’ve gone through a handful of VPN apps and none have been perfect. Some get slow or disconnect after using them a bit. With my TunnelBear app, it can sometimes take a bit long to connect when I turn it on… several seconds to several minutes. Another drawback for me is the kill switch not being compatible with WireGuard. Also, there’s an issue I’ve encountered is if I activate airplane mode on my iPad, and later turn it off, Tunnel Bear seems to break and never reconnect. I tried switching it on and off, even force-quitting the app. No luck. The only solution was deleting the app and reinstalling. So if you use airplane mode, you may want to turn Tunnel Bear off first..Version: 4.4.2
✓ VPN for the non-technicalI’m a technical person, but if I was setting up a VPN for someone who wasn’t, this is what I would use. Everything that CAN be put into Grandma-friendly language is, and it Just Works. The feature that I probably use the most on iOS and macOS is the option to automatically connect on anything that isn’t your home WiFi. (On iOS, you can even connect automatically on cellular.) It’s literally the “set it and forget it” option. I wouldn’t mind if the app supported larger font sizes, but that’s about it. I also use ProtonVPN for when I need more granular control, but this is a good option for 99% of the population..Version: 3.1.2
✓ Nice app which does what it says on the tinI’ve been using tunnel bear for awhile now across multiple devices and I find it a very straight forward app. Haven’t explored the features fully but the basics which I have been using such as multiple device support, I’ve been more than happy with. I also like that you get 1gb incentives each month for tweeting. That is a great way to a) get the word out and b) get some free data. Keep up the good work guys..Version: 2.14.2
✓ TunnelBearHi there , I’m from Wisconsin and I have tried lots of VPNS lots of which cost money , well TunnelBear does, it works great because you have the 2gb or space and as long as you’re not on your phone / iPad (tablet) 24/7 it works really good for what I need it for. Also when you run out of the 2gb it refills within a month which is nice since a lot of apps only give your a limit too use and make you pay for it but this one doesn’t you just have to wait a bit. Highly recommended this VPN service if your looking for a good free VPN or a good VPN in general because this one has pretty good prices in my opinion. Great service!.Version: 4.4.3
✓ Poor coverageI paid for a 12 month subscription and to begin with it worked fine and allowed me to connect to my uk Sky tv account from Kuala Lumpur, and I thought it was great. however after a couple of hours it then decided to stop working and after uninstalling, re installing, playing with settings and trying everything else I could think of, it still doesn’t work and won’t connect..... I feel that this is not worth the money I have paid..Version: 4.1.14
✓ Seems to work wellEasy to use - the only issue is it defaults to my own country on auto as that has the best bandwidth but that makes sense....Version: 2.11.1
✓ Easy to useI haven’t noticed any difference in speed and have been really happy with how Easy it was to set up and how simple it is to use..Version: 2.11.1
✓ Best vpn in the worldThis app is very helpful for me tysm for making such an app, there’s no problem with me using it. Keep it up!.Version: 4.2.1
✓ Best free offerThis vpn is one of the best!! I personally used it to play Warzone mobile because it is not available where I live and when I connected the vpn to Chile it worked flawless!!! Recommended!! You get two Gb sadly for the free version but I think it is worth it purchasing this vpn!!!.Version: 4.4.2
✓ Massive thanks to great services providedI’ve been used TunnelBear for about 5 years or more and am so pleased with it! Amazing Privacy Statement, no IP leaks during connection (turning off location helps), stable connections, great download speeds. Worth every dime spent! Keep up the great work guys, thank you for the service!.Version: 4.1.17
✓ Best VPN ever!It gives me free VPN, and even data! 1GB every month! This is the best..Version: 2.7.1
✓ AwesomeI love this app i have it on my phone, i pad and both my windows laptops because it works well and works consistently.Version: 2.1.2
✓ Great VPNVigilant Bear on iOS would be appreciated for added security. Otherwise as expected with this VPN..Version: 4.3.2
✓ Incredible app!Fast and easy sign up and great for it’s purpose. A free vpn that has all the capabilities as a payed one and still runs really smoothly.Version: 4.1.6
✓ Honestly The Best [FREE] VPNBeen using this VPN for almost 4 months now and they’ve only gotten better. Started at 5GB a month for free (which never seemed to run out or go down for that matter) and then they’ve recently upped it to 15GB a month….STILL free. Connects instantly and has a ton of spots for free that others will normally charge for. Doesn’t have every spot but it’s more than worth it for what they offer. Beyond solid app, if you’re looking for something that doesn’t charge you after a 3 day trial period..Version: 4.4.1
✓ Perfect for Warzone!!!Genuinely a good ahh app to play the beta version of Warzone, but I highly recommend you only play like 2-3 battle royale modes, and 4-8 multiplayer mode, because you start with free 2.0B and Warzone will slowly but surely take some away, and the cool thing about this app is that if you don’t use it after like 1-2 weeks your 2.0B comes back!! It’s worth the wait if you get bored of the same and then suddenly wanna play again, but it’s better to make a new account and not log into a new tunnel bear one because the new one starts with free 2.0 obviously, so overall in my opinion it’s a really good VPN, even better then nordVPN because they charge you money for the first time and that’s just dumb. A whole subscription is useless, tunnel bear is just better because you start off with free gigabytes 💯💯💯, so it’s a 5 star for me.Version: 4.4.3
✓ Auto connecting unreliableTunnelBear offers at least 50/20 speeds in Australia, can’t speak for high speeds or elsewhere. Great, user friendly interface. Wish more tech firms were so relatable & approachable instead of using meaningless tech jargon. Only thing that could be improved is the service’s automatic engagement of VPN when connecting through untrusted connections..Version: 4.1.17
✓ ExcellentDoes just what it says....works 😄👍.Version: 2.4.2
✓ Impressive appVery impressive app have to say, attracts my attention. Compared a lot of vpns, and this one kept me the longest. I don’t usually come up and do reviews for random apps.Version: 4.0.10
✓ Exceptional VPNI’ve been using this VPN since the early and it really has come a long way. Easy, dependable and simple to use, highly recommended..Version: 4.1.18
✓ Legit great serviceI’m honestly impressed how many countries and how it can fool site regarding which country you are in..Version: 4.3.2
✓ HelpIt’s very easy and good and FREE! But does it work on Apple Music and if it does how to I change it because it still says I’m in Australia, and does it work on Netflix if there are accounts in Australia?.Version: 4.1.6
✓ Simple, fast and secureI've tried dozens of vpns but tunnel bear makes using a vpn quick and easy. I'm able to use my account across multiple devices and have never run into an issue with anything software related yet. The interface is polished and clean which I like. The performance is what I like best: I get the security of a vpn without any compromise in wifi or data speed. I appreciate that they share how they're audited and very throughout in their description of how and what they collect data wise (which btw is not a whole lot) from users. I bought the $10 a month plan and have zero regrets. Well done tunnel bear 🐻!.Version: 2.14.2
✓ Very poor technical help responseIn the beginning tunnel bear was great but then it stopped allowing me access to certain sites . I sent four different messages to technical support and never received a response so now cancelled my subscription. Just noticed another years subscription has been taken out . Not happy and no idea how to get in touch..Version: 2.12
✓ Simple & FastPure VPN experience :D easy to use, Fast, simple, No Ads ❤️❤️❤️❤️.Version: 2.7.1
✓ Simple & works!Easy to use & hassle free. Would recommend to everyone..Version: 2.4.2
✓ Works, very goodEverything is great..Version: 2.7.1
✓ Great but.. please readGreat app. Number 1 VPN that I use & will always go be my go to. I do not pay for the app though, oddly enough because that it is so essential to my daily. The reason being that there isn’t enough features. There are free VPNs with more features, why would I pay for less accessibility? I would love to subscribe annually to an app I use as often as this one but for the price. The app does not meet $50 worth of goods. (Not to compare) essentially the thought is - I can buy a video game for $60 that can be bad & you can get a free game that is amazing. In the sense that getting your customers to pay shouldn’t be the focus, it should be what’s actually available for purchase. ( right now there only being one feature, the VPN) That is the only reason I won’t pay as of right now. I will be looking to in the future! As a wise man said. “If you’re not innovating, get out!”.Version: 4.3.1
✓ Easy to follow but...Great app but when making the account it asked to verify it (as it should), on opening the website link it was blocked, would it be possible to verify the account on the app instead of the website? Overall a good app..Version: 4.1.16
✓ ReviewOverall a decent app, however, will often take a lengthy amount of time to connect or require multiple attempts. Sometimes it will DC mid use, often it will connect to a very slow server making things not load and requiring me to turn it on and off. It doesnt let you download torrents with it on..Version: 3.3.1
✓ Works fine.Still using free version but as it's working well I'll probably go for paid. Using it to watch OZ shows from overseas. Try it free to see if it does what you need..Version: 4.0.5
✓ Great protectionI loved the fact that you can add up to 5 devices who doesn’t have just a cell or computer and cheaper than others..Version: 2.10
✓ Easy to use and reliableIf you’re a budget user then look no further, this vpn is simple to use and rarely has any issues. You get a decent amount of data to use a month and is pretty much impossible to run out of, at the very least I haven’t managed it yet..Version: 4.2.1
✓ Perfect valueThe app works 100% and allow me to connect Spanish radio with no trouble at all.Version: 4.3.2
✓ My VPN of choice, eventuallyI’ve been trying a number of VPN apps across my devices and have finally settled on this one for its constant reliability and performance. I have iMac, MacBookPro and iPhones across the family and TunnelBear seems to work perfectly for me on all of them. The ability to automatically stand down when on my home network yet spring to life when I am out and about is great and perfect on the MacBookPro. I’ve also been able to use it to obtain other services not available to UK-based people. It’s rare that I pay for annual subscriptions but this service has been worth every penny. I will almost certainly be renewing when my year comes up in April. Fully recommended..Version: 2.8
✓ Everyone should be using a VPN!!I work in the technology sector. When I talk with people about using a VPN on their mobile device or computer, I get a naive response that they aren’t doing anything that requires privacy. So does that mean you are willing to have cameras installed in your house where people can see what you are doing 24/7? I understand the leap in that logic but EVERYONE should be concerned about their privacy and do everything they can to protect it. Once information is “out there”, you don’t get to take it back. TunnelBear is so easy to use and there service is fairly priced. Their service is great. Please get this app and use it..Version: 2.9
✓ Good - does what it should.Great app. Nothing to fault here..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Great app, very reliableTunnelbear is the best VPN app that I have used so far, also reliable and very fast connection.Version: 2.8.1
✓ Easy to use but periodic connection issuesHave had this VPN for couple of years and overall satisfied. Easy to use but at times does not always automatically connect when open iPads or iPhones. Have all the correct settings on. More an issue with iPads. Wish it was more seamless as have to double check that VPN on especially when traveling and many times have to go into app and manually connect. Gets to be a pain as we have 5 devices using the Bear. Have reinstalled but still have periodic issue. Did contact customer service but not great response. Looking at other VPN options though appears none are perfect and have other problems. Hope this can be resolved as prefer not to change..Version: 4.1.17
✓ 🐻 is thee BEST For VNP’s 🤲🏻⬇️😉I’ll keep this short an sweet as that’s all this needs to be. This truly is THEE BEST VPN there is out there. I’ve tried all the main/well known ones and don’t get me wrong I like most of the well known ones but as good as they are. TunnelBear is just that much better. 1000% highly recommended to anyone thinking of downloading. 👍🏼👍🏼.Version: 4.1.5
✓ Amazing love itWonderful experience.Version: 4.4
✓ Awesome VPN but…Tunnel bear is by far my favourite VPN because it is so reliable, Lightning fast (in Australia) and easy to use. The only problem with is that it is to expensive to commit to over its competitors such as nord VPN etc. Even though it has a free version, that is not enough for a month so if it was made a little bit more affordable I would definitely commit to it over its competitors. Also I would like to ask why people think it doesn’t work with Netflix and other streaming services because it works perfectly for me..Version: 4.3.2
✓ Most carefree/reliable VPNI’ve tried a few VPNs (Norton, Nord, Windscribe). TunnelBear fits my needs best. I’m using it to secure my data on public WiFi and to have a US connection when traveling abroad. I like that it connects automatically on unknown networks and I can choose safe networks when it isn’t needed at home, etc. I’m currently at a resort roaming from WiFi hotspot to hotspot. It does a great job connecting with each move from access point to access point. This is where the Norton product failed me in the past. I’ve been using the pay version for several months. It does its job without much fuss..Version: 2.14.4
✓ Works better than any I have triedI have used a bunch of vpn servers. TunnelBear has worked better for me. I am usually out of the country and most of the others really don’t totally disguise that I am out of the country. Problem is that a lot of sites will not allow connections from outside the USA. I have not had the problem with TunnelBear. I have used Norton Vpn and the sites often realize I am on a vpn and block me. It also happens when you try to log into local tv channels you pay for in the states, no problem with TunnelBear..Version: 4.2.1
✓ Best VPN app I’ve ever used on mobileI download so much apps on the AppStore and none of them ever worked. They claim to be “VPN”s but don’t do a thing! TunnelBear however, is very different! I’ve tried it out and so far it’s been very user-friendly and easy to use. Lots of different locations to connect to without any problems. You don’t have to pay for any subscription service as it is free, unless you want more data. However, some issues I have is it does slows down my internet speed a bit, and some third-party connections can still sense I’m using a VPN. For example Netflix, I can’t watch anything if I am using TunnelBear because it just blocks everything..Version: 3.3.2
✓ Great App, works as expectedGreat app. It’s a pretty decent VPN. Loving the art style you guys have going on. Really makes the whole experience of encrypting my data much more enjoyable. That being said, I’m yet to see any data leaks from them which is comforting (unlike another unnamed VPN 🤨). It’s easier to have data leaks happen than one would expect, so I feel like my data is pretty safe with them. Pricing is reasonable, it not a little premium, but you really do get what you pay for here so it’s fair. Devs gimme a shout if you see this. I would love to know if you have anything on planned on the roadmap..Version: 3.4.3
✓ GreatThis is awesome but it would be nice if it gave you more data from the beginning. However it is completely free so I’ll give it that..Version: 2.12
✓ Thank you tunnelbear ❤️🌸✌🏽I use tunnelbear a lot and was confused by the new icon- I came here to read the reviews after seeing it was for BLM and honestly I love you guys, whoever decided on this and whoever has been writing reviews thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’m a black woman and the ALM stuff in the reviews truly disheartened me but the responses were so supportive to BLM that I wanted to finally give you the five stars you guys deserve. I’ll support this app until the end of time. Even IF this was a stunt, the responses mean so much and I wanted to day thank you. I love you guys so much, thank you for this wonderful app!.Version: 3.5.2
✓ PolishedGreat quality, fast and easy to use VPN with decent pricing. The whole bear element is heavily integrated and the app has clean and fluid animations along with a simple yet elegant GUI really drive the purchase into that quality/polished product market. Two paws up..Version: 4.0
✓ Great, but doesn’t work well in chinaI know the government censors information and blocks the usage of vpns, but the point of vpns is to bypass that. So I wish you could improve the chances of it being completely unusable (like mine, and I even paid for a month). Other than that, it works great in other regions of the world..Version: 4.4.1
✓ There’s a problemI love this app but there’s one problem I can’t watch Netflix without an error message showing up I’d like to know if there is a fix for this it would be a big help thank you.Version: 2.14.4
✓ Working now!Unfortunately bought a yearly subscription as I had read great reviews. It works on my iPhone that has AT& T, but I don’t get it for my iPhone. I got it for my iPad that is WiFi only so I could use my iPad on public WiFi such as hotels, coffee shops etc. The app either goes wild (on my home WiFi) and the switch starts going on and off every 1/2 seconds or when on a public WiFi, I just can’t do anything on my iPad: can’t check e-mails, can’t get onto ANY websites using Safari etc. I turn it off and immediately I can surf the net. I contacted support and their solution could not even be done on the iPad. Do not bother getting this if u have an iPad or PLEASE only get free one and do a long trial first! Updated review: The technical staff worked with me non-stop till it worked. Moreover, the update so far works well with iOS13. So far TB has worked on public WiFi and at home. Hopefully it will work next time I go to s hotel..Version: 3.2.2
✓ W vpnProbably one if the better if not best free vpn’s i could find.Version: 4.4.3
✓ Best App I've GotTunnelBear is working great for me.Version: 2.8
✓ Strength to strengthServers seem to get faster every few months. I’ve noticed that TunnelBear can often circumvent VPN blocking on a lot of a public wifi services that my other VPNs can’t. Fast, reliable and often times more capable..Version: 2.8
✓ Easy to useGreat for those times when you read an article on a website and the embedded video you just read about and want to watch says you’re not in region..Version: 4.1.5
✓ Works for meI have tried another server, but found it too complicated to set up, and to cancel. This little bear is so easy to do, and it worked perfectly. Only need the service for a few weeks of holidays a year so that we can watch TV/Netflix etc and this little chap does the trick. This year we've used him in Canada and Gran Ganaria and he's been growling for us both times. (Meant we never missed strictly!) the only problems occur when the Internet signal is poor. Definitely recommend..Version: 2.7.1
✓ The best I've found so farDoes what it says on the box, with one exception so far. Tunneling to Australia from NZ has some issues with some tv shows blocked. Disappointing and limiting but not a deal breaker. Happy to recommend. Hopefully Tunnel Bear will sort the problem soon.Version: 2.4
✓ It’s unBEARably amazing!If you are looking for a simple, easy to use VPN, then you have come to the right app. TunnelBear is free, efficient, and simple meaning that you can connect to any network in another country effortlessly. It connects fast, loads fast and you don’t even have to pay to change countries - which most VPN services make you do..Version: 2.14.4
✓ Great app! One thing:I love using TunnelBear, it works consistently and well across all my devices. I love having a bear with an expansive tunnel network around the world protect what I’m doing online. I would like not to be prompted to remove a network from my trusted networks each time I start using my Bear, or alternatively asked if I’d like to add a network to my trusted list when I stop using my Bear; I would prefer to be able to turn TunnelBear on and off at will, depending on what I’m up to at a given time. Does this dialogue prompt have to do with the way Apple sets up a VPN profile, or could the prompt be toggled through the in-app settings depending on their preferences? — A grateful Bear owner.Version: 4.2.5
✓ It's great 😎Works so well, ez interface, and good endpoints (not banned by companies so vids with regional blocking etc work). It would be amazing if you could buy a data block for those months where you only want to look at a few things..Version: 4.2.5
✓ Great Security Access As TravelWe travel overseas for more than two months yearly. Many countries, Asia, South America, Europe and accessing free wifi, airports, coffee shops, pubs, restaurants, hotels and I am so pleased to have the security of Tunnel Bear, works brilliantly. Also enables me to access the Australian sites barred to me when I am away from Home. Try it you you will be pleased..Version: 3.2.3
✓ Love to use itI need South Korea vpn 😭 consider it please!.Version: 3.6
✓ Most of the timeDoes what it says it will do, pretty seamlessly. But HBO and Netflix can still figure out where you are..Version: 2.4
✓ HorriblePaid this for over 2 years, nothing but problems .. rarely connects, otherwise just spins and spins.. their technical support is virtually non existent, you have to email and wait for over 48 hours like a moron. Their help instructions don’t solve the problem either.. they tell you, the same old stupid solutions, reinstall the app, reinstall the vpn configuration, make sure no other vpn is running, and in the end, guess what, it just spins and spins and spins.. randomly one day, it’ll work, and I’ve had the same results on multiple networks and devices.. wanted this to be decent and gave two years of my money for crap..Version: 4.3
✓ SuperI’m using the free version since almost a year now and I really like it. It is super easy to use and work perfectly. I recommend it..Version: 4.0.7
✓ Not workingHas the app "caput" or something. Couldn't get it to work just now as it keep saying I need to reinstall the VPN profile and then when I try it doesn't work. I hve deleted and reinstalled and now an SSL connection problem is the error message I am getting. Can't even log in now. When I try to click on the "contact the developer" link it keep taking me to my network provider home page saying I have blocked the website.??? what's going on? Any ideas?.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Thumbs upEasy to use and great app.Version: 2.8.1
✓ Great AppNow I don’t normally write reviews but this app deserves one. Honestly, as someone who knows absolutely nothing about VPNs I can thankfully say this app is probably one of the best. It’s completely free and makes using a VPN so simple! It’s very easy to use and pretty self explanatory, (it also doesn’t use huge words that I tend to not understand.) On top of this app already being great, it’s also pretty cute, the whole theme is quite adorable and pretty easy to use/understand! I would definitely recommend this app! Good job devs :).Version: 4.3.2
✓ A Must Have VPN!I never leave reviews but I love this app. It’s the only genuine FREE VPN that works. A friend of mine told me about it and I figured I would check it out. I was fully expecting it to not work or for it to somehow try to charge me a monthly subscription. I was surprised that it didn’t even ask me for a credit card and I was even more surprised that it actually works. I highly recommend for everyone! I’ve wanted to have a VPN app for when I need an American IP Address and to say I am pleased with this app is a major understatement. It’s really convenient and simple. Thank you for making such a great app!.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Good VPNFast and cheap. One word, great. Good for gaming on your IOS devices. Do not miss this. Lovely bear.Version: 2.0.3
✓ ExcellentEasy to use. Fast. Works EVERYTIME. Never had an issue while using. Works for streaming!.Version: 4.4.1
✓ EasyIt's probably the easiest and most adorable VPN you can buy. And since it's all done with in app purchases, you don't have to give your credit card number to anyone new. Plus it's very reasonably priced, cheaper than many other popular services. Highly, highly recommended..Version: 2.3
✓ Great performanceI loved the fact that a free trial was available and that by tweeting about it I got more free data. After that was used up I decided to open an account but was suspicious that the speed would throttle back once they had my cash. Well, I am now into my fourth year of using this service ....that says it all. Update it's now six years and service is as reliable as ever. Thanks bears!.Version: 2.8
✓ Every phone should have thisI was literally looking for a free VPN but all of them were scams. I clearly advise that this application shall be in every phone every now and then. Special thanks, Your friendly reviewer,.Version: 2.14.3
✓ Better all the time!Now with auto-connect (among other great features), Tunnel Bear is indeed a very friendly app whose developers and “bears” really seem to care about their product and their customers. Thank you! Re your 3rd party audit: Very impressive and appreciated! Thank you for undertaking this process and sharing the results. I only wish your service was consistently faster than it is, swinging from very slow to very fast. Usually slowest of three VPNs I've tried. Disappointing and frustrating because I want to use TunnelBear exclusively..Version: 2.8
✓ Great vpnTry it it's the best vpn around with a great selection of country's & connects in seconds love it & so will you.Version: 2.6
✓ Better option than VPN ExpressWorks better than VPN Express which does not seem to be able to hide itself from sky tv so definitely won’t protect you. This app however does. It seems not to want to connect to my NAS god knows why that is. If only you were able to purchase data rather than sign up for subscription, then this app would be rated higher..Version: 2.9
✓ Works Fairly Well, But, ... Update, 12 Jan 19... like most VPN’s I’ve tried, if the bandwidth isn’t big enough, it’ll block WiFi access until you turn it off ... But for the most part, very little hesitation experienced for its automatic operation when joining WiFi networks ... Developer has to work on settings access: I have to either turn-on or turn-off VPN operations in order for the settings node to highlight and become available for access ... - don’t know why ... (???) ... it just doesn’t work very well for public WiFi’s. I’m sure it’s a bandwidth problem that prevents VPN activation and internet access ... works great at home, and in other household/private locations. But if I end-up using cellular service - which I trust - then why bother having VPN service ? ....Version: 2.14.2
✓ If you’re angered by a company asking for racial justice...... you need to have a conversation with yourself. Frankly, it’s an issue we should ALL support and even if it’s not really your bag, there’s no need to throw a strop. Incidentally, it’s a good app. Easy to use and powerful. Good to get 1GB free so you can use it in a pinch if you don’t want to spring for a monthly subscription for a VPN service. I’ve had it on all my devices for a while..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Creating an accountTurns out the email was not popping up when it was getting the email everything is good now and thanks for responding..Version: 3.2.1
✓ This is the best VPN app, highly recommend.You can choose from hundreds of different places for free, you can download the app on a computer aswell as your phone, there are great animations and multiple customisation choices. Only problem I would say is that the unlimited data membership is quite expensive, although it is a great app..Version: 4.1.18
✓ Only thing missing is a macos App Store app!Great vpn, I always reccomend it to my non tech friends looking for a vpn recommendation. I personally have stopped using it due to there being no Mac version that can be distributed via App Store, but apart from that I only have good things to say about Tunnelbear..Version: 4.1.19
✓ Best Overall VPN 5 STAR⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I've tried about 10 VPNs and this one connects the fastest never seems to lose connections has servers all over the world that work equally fast and exactly as advertised can't go wrong with this one handsdown A+++++++.Version: 4.4.3
✓ Stop the politics now.Black lives matters is a terrorist organisation and I do not side with your agenda driven political views. Companies and businesses are not an emotional response to human policies. A business Siding with politics and groups is utterly disgusting and abhorrent. It is for monetary gains through immoral practice. Absolutely disgusting and shameful practice. I am reporting you to the App Store now for your political agenda. I find darkening your app for this political reason offensive to myself as I am being alienated for the colour of my skin..Version: 3.5.2
✓ Easy, simple, but not basicEasy & simple to use and works well.Version: 2.4.2
✓ Tunnel bear reviewGreat vpn works anytime and doesn’t slow anything down.Version: 3.5.3
✓ Best VPNI have been using TunnelBear for a number of years now. It has always performed well and seemed to trick my location effectively. Definitely download the app and try for yourself, it is totally free and effective. jhw00 May 2018.Version: 2.10
✓ [update] Love it! Latest update w/iOS 11 stopped auto connectThe company responded to my concern within about 24 hours, very timely, especially over the weekend. They informed me that they were aware of the issue and a fix was already in place, pushed to an update: 2.7.1. I updated and voila! it appears to have been resolved. Thanks for your positive and timely response! Very happy with the performance of the app, as well as the ethics and care from this company so far. I absolutely love TunnelBear. After researching a ton of VPNs and their behaviors and perks, I decided upon TB. No logging. Excellent encryption. Auto connect. No speed loss that I’ve noticed. I only have one gripe with the latest update / move to iOS 11. The VPN never seems to auto connect anymore. Every time either the device loses or sleeps the connection, or switches between cellular and WiFi, TunnelBear disconnects and never attempts to reconnect like it used to. Please fix this. It’s now incredibly frustrating to have to manually go to the app to reconnect to VPN every time this happens. And it happens way more often than I thought or ever noticed. Thanks..Version: 2.7.1
✓ Excellent appSuch a handy app, just a shame it's limited to 500mb. Great work anyway!.Version: 2.5
✓ Best FREE VPN with limited dataI was looking for free VPN online and I came across a few websites the recommended this one. After downloading and making myself familiar, I realised that users have a maximum of about 1.5 GB of data per month however for me this is okay, as i dont really use VPN a lot. Great app, and very stable connection for FREE!.Version: 4.1.14
✓ THIS IS THE BEST APP EVER!!My dad has a block on the wifi, so if i want to use social media i have to buy my own credit. Anyway, i ran out of data today and i wanted to do my streaks so i was googling for like 3 hrs till I came across this app and its like the only free one and it works so dam well!! like this app deadset saved my 200 day streak. THANKYOU!.Version: 2.8.1
✓ Great!Apart from being limited to 500MB, i’ve never had any problems with this app. I only use it to stream music, and I only stream music when doing my homework, so it takes up a few hours a week, but I don’t run out of the 500MB fast. Also, the graphics and bear puns are adorable! Definitely the most adorable app I’ve ever used, and the best and most reliable VPN app I’ve used :).Version: 2.8.1
✓ Tunnel bear does not work on my iPadThis VPN used to be OK although very slow data through put. Now for what ever reason every time I try to run the VPN on my iPad it will not connect and the Tunnel Bear disconnects my WiFi on the iPad. Makes the VPN useless. I’m not impressed..Version: 3.2.2
✓ Voiceover friendlyThis gets a five star because it works excellent. It does exactly what I needed to do. I don’t use it on an ongoing basis but if I did I would gladly pay for a subscription to upgrade beyond the amount of data allowed each month. Also most applications do not tell you whether they are friendly for VoiceOver/or other screen reading technology or not. This one does work with VoiceOver… I am blind and I have an iPhone 7. It works perfectly and is extremely easy. There was no learning curve at all… It just took a couple of minutes to figure out the interface and voilà… Done and working great. I am using iOS 13.1.3 with no problems..Version: 3.2.1
✓ Best vpn!This app is extremely easy to use, and has a wide range of options available for free. Overall, it’s the best free vpn I’ve ever had and tried (out of many, assure me), and I highly recommend it..Version: 3.5.3
✓ GreatIt's a great app, it is the Vpn I use the most, living in China it helped me a lot.Version: 2.3
✓ ReviewPlease keep in mind my review for tunnel bear is a customer who is used it for years. I never rate this high but honestly I feel tunnel bear deserves this high rating, any problem I’ve ever heard with their services has always been resolved. They have the best customer service I’ve ever experience for software product. You can use their services for free however keep in mind the data is limited. It’s not one of these apps where the free service is terrible, it’s actually not bad and their vpn has never doubted me. I hope tunnel bear continues down this path, from what I’m witnessing they are only getting better and better day by day. I strongly believe they deserve far more recognition than they get.Version: 4.0.5
✓ 4 star for easy and simple interfaceI will give 5 stars if I can use it in China, unfortunately I can’t, just tried it a week or two before. Probably will not continue the subscription due to this problem..Version: 2.14.1
✓ Brilliant App, Awesome, tweak each week…Big Raawwrrr! This app’s awesome! It’s a VPN & I find if you want your VPN to be the Bears Nuts for you, you need to tweak every few days. 1. CHECK for updates - don’t ‘Install & Ignore!’ Like many do! 2. Update the ‘VPN Profile’ settings now & then - good admin. 3. CHECK there’s no ‘conflict’ with any other VPN/Security Apps. Basic, easy checks and a little maintainability behaviour will go a long way to ensuring your VPN is the Bears Knackers! To the person moaning about U.K Lottery etc. That is the site - Lotto, and Sky: they detect a VPN and think you are in U.S.A, Japan or TimBukTu! They only want people in the U.K playing their games. That is THEIR thing - NOT the TunnelBear App. So, if you’ve a shred of decency, change the review you left and learn how to beat the U.K Lotto VPN thingy (search it!) Grrrreeeaaaatt App!.Version: 4.4.1
✓ Free and fast 😎The fact that you get 1GB every month is amazing! This VPN is different then the other VPNs I tried using! Also I love the cute bears 🥰.Version: 3.6
✓ Easiest 5Star review in yrs.The VPN bar has been set very high with the exit of Opera VPN. I can wholeheartedly say, TunnelBear, has exceeded my needs and expectations. I started on the free trial, that ‘YES’ does limit the data to 500mb, p/month. A. I have yet to find ANY TRULY FREE, VPN, and I mean free of ads that interfere with my experience directly.{Especially the speed and ease of integration of the VPN client within iOS’s feature utilizing a VPN Service. As well as free as in ,’no cost ever at any point’, so tunnel bear for my needs, is my, highly scrutinized decision, #1 choice. BONUS NOTE:* Spread the Tunnel Bear word on Twitter and receive a Gig, of EXTRA MONTHLY DATA =1500mb!! If you need more, their subscription service is again, priced more competitively than any other “COMPARABLE” VPN. Tunnel Bear, ‘Ballistic VPN’, that is THAT..Version: 2.13.1
✓ Really good vpn!It is a GREAT vpn! i personally use it to set up my display name on roblox, but apart from that, its a really good app for privacy and going to different countries without actually going! however, theres a problem, i hate it where we need data to use it. its kind of like other vpns so i dont blame it! If you need a vpn that is perfect and actually gives you privacy, this is the app for you!.Version: 4.1.8
✓ Great little VPNEasy to employ..Version: 4.4.2
✓ BEST VPN DOWNLOAD NOW! 😊Download this now! An amazing app this is the best VPN app ever it works for everything I have all three bear apps all are amazing I have tunnel bear block bear and RememBear all amazing thank you soo much Thanks 😋.Version: 2.11.1
✓ Not for us but might be perfect for youThis VPN didn’t have the speed we needed, but the customer support, easy user interface, and attractive design make it ideal for most people. I sent in a customer request and had an answer in less than 20 minutes. The program was easy to download, install, and set-up. That said if you need something with more speed, like for online gaming, then this isn’t the VPN for you. Otherwise it’s cute, they have solid ideals, and are very helpful & responsive. Would definitely recommend to most users..Version: 4.3.2
✓ TunnelBearI enjoyed using this app a lot. VPN worked perfectly for what I use it for. Not once did I get the typical ‘IP address hidden ‘ error message from any servers or site unlike majority of VPN apps and nor did I have to put up with lagging either. Definitely 5 star rating & yes it’s worth paying monthly fee to have it at my disposal. 😋.Version: 2.14.4
✓ NiceThe connection was really good but I wish there was more than 2GB for free.Version: 4.4.1
✓ WowSuper et gratuit.Version: 4.4.1
✓ TunnelBearExcellent 5 stars.Version: 3.1.7
✓ Great appFast and steady connection, but please add Indonesia!! ☺️☺️.Version: 2.14.4
✓ BaffledI don’t know if it’s Apple iOS downloads that could be causing problems or this app but I thought the reason to have a VPN was to be protected while using unsecured WiFi; well quiet the opposite is happening when it comes to my iPad Mini. I’ve updated this app and update it whenever it’s needed so I don’t know what else can be done to keep this app from not automatically turning on when I turn my data off and use WiFi. Sometimes it will not turn on when I use data and turn WiFi off as well. This happens all to often. Am so frustrated ..Version: 4.0
✓ AmazingFree vpn.Version: 4.4.3
✓ RobloxI used it for a display name. works if you instal do what you need to do then delete..Version: 4.1.11
✓ NoovoDifficultés à me connecter avec Noovo.Version: 4.4.3
✓ Good AppEasy to use and would recommend to anyone. Like other reviews we can't view some items in NZ or Australia but not a deal breaker as I can watch the golf anywhere in the world and that was the main reason for the purchase.Version: 2.6.2
✓ Great VPNFirst when I saw this on the App Store, I was like another one of those “free VPNs” again? but then I read some of the reviews and decided to download and test it out. Then I googled that if this vpn actually hides your ip and it resulted that this vpn creates a new ip which isn’t your actual IP address and I decided to put that to the test by doing a google search of what is my ip with and without the vpn. And with the vpn, it actually creates a new IP address and with that ip I did an ip lookup and it wasn’t the same location without the vpn.Version: 4.1.17
✓ Working perfectlyI’m in Australia and sending photos to companies in America that by them thinking that I’m living And working in America. I don’t need them to know my real location and this is the perfect totally free app 🧸🧸 that works for me..Version: 3.2.3
✓ Very goodThanks.Version: 4.1.14
✓ Used TunnelBear for 8 years...I found tunnelbear many years ago. Loved the look and feel so much that it was the first vpn I ever payed for! Even though my use for vpn back then was short lived I’ve ultimately come across the need to have a solid trusty vpn handy. Thankfully my old (elegant) bear had no trouble brushing off his fur and getting the job done! Fast and powerful, full privacy and great aesthetic..Version: 4.1.4
✓ Drop outs a dragSometimes drops out when using which can be annoying but otherwise good..Version: 2.12
✓ OutstandingOverall a wonderful service. Affordable, easy to use, and support is available quickly! When I first set up my account I encountered an issue but the support team responded to my help request almost immediately and helped resolve my issue quickly & professionally! So if you need help they’re there to help! The app itself is fun and easy to use! Watching the bear tunnel to a new country is adorable and satisfying. The connection to sites is as fast as without a VPN enabled which is a huge step up from other platforms!.Version: 4.0.6
✓ It just works!Simple, works every time with every service.Version: 2.6.3
✓ Cool design but not greatI moved from NordVPN as it kept logging me out on my MacBook, this seems to be better but I have had issue with getting a secured connection. I had to switch from Auto protocol to IPSec which then worked. Tunnel bear does seem slower with internet speeds and connecting but at least the logging out issue isn’t an issue. Looks good though and I enjoy using it, as much as you can a VPN..Version: 4.3.2
✓ Generally okSometimes the app freezes and I have to re-log-in to see show. Pretty frustrating. Shows freeze. But on a good day when it works, it works.Version: 4.4
✓ Pretty decent VPNThis one is the one that I'd trust and use. I don't need to VPNs a lot so the standard free data is enough. But since it is a paid service that makes it the 4 star rating for ppl that think this is totally free ;).Version: 2.5.4
✓ Convenient, reliable and freeRecommend it :).Version: 2.2.2
✓ Very GreatOnly if it was Unlimited.Version: 2.4.5
✓ Coolest VPN in App StoreTunnel Bear is really easy to use and extremely beautiful designed VPN. Everything works fast and smooth, I’ve never had any problems with this app. Highly recommended!.Version: 3.2.1
✓ Brilliantly ExecutedI’ve been using TunnelBear on both my computer and iPhone now for just over seven months and I am very impressed with how smooth the experience is. It is extremely easy to connect to the free, monthly 500mb of VPN provided by the app and the ability to choose where to tunnel to is fantastic. Weather watching Netflix shows from other countries, streaming Xbox over the cloud or uploading files to iCloud or OneDrive, TunnelBear makes for a beautifully designed, well functioning utility that I couldn’t live without. And hey, you’ve go to love that adorable bear!.Version: 4.0.10
✓ Good range of payment optionsI am very impressed with this app and the helpful team respond to queries very quickly. The app is simple to set up and works well. They offer a good range of payments, including a 3 year deal with a single one off payment and no ongoing subscription for people who don't want to sign up for any recurring payments - a very fair choice of options..Version: 3.4.3
✓ Great speedy free vpnThis’s the one if you just need to do some light browsing.Version: 4.4.1
✓ Great appThis app is awesome helped me play fortnite at school 🤣.Version: 2.14.2
✓ Amazing!Best vpn ive got, 10/10 recommended :).Version: 4.4.2
✓ Trust 🤞So I trust that this, as a VPN, is doing its job. I haven't seen a particular decrease in spam activity or performance (maybe I'm not aware of it), but I also haven't had any issues with fraudulent activity 🤞. Four stars bc the app turns itself off regardless of my device frequently. I glance up and the VPN has been turned off when I switch connections like at home or work, and I have to manually turn it back on multiple times per day. Not a deal breaker for me but also not ideal. Edit june10,21 - hey team, thank you for your initial responsiveness. The same problem above is actually worse now than in my original review. The VPN is disconnecting more frequently and with more difficulty reconnecting..Version: 4.1.14
✓ Very Nice AppTotally worth getting the subscription! Servers are fast and secure. You have a lot of servers to choose from. I love this app and the bear sounds are so cute! 🧸❤️.Version: 4.4.2
✓ Great appLove tunnelbear! Awesome app.Version: 4.4.1
✓ Staying connected on iPadTB keeps dropping out when using iPad at home. Bummer. Don’t understand options.Version: 4.1.14
✓ Was soo :))), then soo :(((, NOW SOOO :)))))Used to be *****, worked splendidly :))), then some issues in iOS 12.4, Customer Support was immediate!!! and successful on first try!!! Would give 10 stars but only found five :))).Version: 3.4.5
✓ Great app and supports BLMI appreciate how you are in support of Black Lives Matter. I read some of the bad reviews and I’m disappointed to see the negativity this app is getting for simply supporting human rights. Regardless of a person’s opinion an app doesn’t deserve a one star rating for supporting human rights. It’s sad that you’re losing revenue over this. Thanks for not backing down after the complaints. With that aside this is a great app and doesn’t make you pay immediately to use anything like most other apps for VPN. Very satisfied and I like the bear theme too, it’s cute..Version: 3.5.2
✓ What have you Done?I have enjoyed Tunnel Bear VPN previously and found the system to work really well. I have come back to Tunnel Bear VPN and oh dear what has happened, it takes 5 minutes to connect to any server, and when in use drops the connection and will not reconnect unless you log out and log back in. Having paid for a full years unlimited subscription yesterday it is most disappointing to receive this level of service with no way of cancelling the subscription and getting ones money back, very disappointing.Version: 4.1.11
✓ By far the best....By far the best free VPN. The only genuine free VPN. Unlike other free VPN’s that have poor privacy policies and are often China based, that hide your IP address but still collect your data and know everything pure doing, Tunnel Bear doesn’t. The only third part audited free VPN that guarantees your privacy. You get 500mb free and can earn more by inviting friends and other schemes. You can also upgrade for unlimited data and pay for a full year and save 56%. I’d argue they are also the best payed VPN too, given their reputation as a free VPN and the very competitive price should you choose to upgrade. Not only that, you can choose what country you connect to even in the free version and it works seamlessly even on an old crappy iPhone 5 that is well past its use by date in terms of battery and memory. It never disconnects and it never crashes and the app loads without fault every time..Version: 3.2.1
✓ Great VPNMakes it look like you are somewhere else in the World. Interesting how different web searches are in different countries. Easy to use on both iPhone and MacBook Pro. The only problem I had on the MBP is the background processes chew thru the free data quickly. I didn’t have this issue on my iPhone. Also, on MBP, at one point I think I forgot to turn it off or I closed the app and it was still running.....I think you have to shut it off in the app on MBP and then quit the app. Great free program. 500mb/month free and 1gb free to put on ur computer and 1gb free monthly for tweeting about Tunnelbear. Frickin’ awesome.Version: 2.14.4
✓ Easy and reliableEasy to set up and works every time. Good range of countries to choose from. Couldn't ask for more from a VPN..Version: 2.5.1
✓ It’s great but one thing!At the start it worked it was okay close to my house but didn’t work a certain distance away, but then it started working and I didn’t realise witch was my fault as I should of turned it off. Though I knew that I was to blame I wasn’t overjoyed to be woken to see I had no data left for the month ,but I’m pretty sure that it reboots at the start of the month. It would be better if they had unlimited data for free, but I understand that would not be fundable for the app as it is the people paying for the unlimited data that contribute to funding the company. Overall I would recommend the app to you and thank you for reading my review I hope it helped all I can say is that turn off the data when your not using it and connect up to the WiFi in settings. 🤗.Version: 3.5.2
😕 TunnelBear: Secure VPN & Wifi Negative Reviews
