What the iOS app includes
The app shows the full server list, a favorites tab and a single connect button. You can choose WireGuard for everyday use or IKEv2, which iOS handles natively and which holds up well when the signal is weak.
On Plus and Pro, ad and tracker blocking and malicious site blocking also apply inside other apps, because the filtering happens in TVPN's DNS, not in Safari.
Settings we suggest
Turn on the option to reconnect automatically so the tunnel comes back after the phone wakes up or changes network. This matters most on public Wi-Fi in airports and cafes.
If your battery drains faster than usual, stay on WireGuard. It keeps the connection with less background work than the other protocols.
Common problems
If the VPN icon does not appear in the status bar, open Settings, then General, then VPN and Device Management, and check that TVPN is selected. Deleting the profile there and signing in again also helps.
Low Power Mode can delay reconnection after the phone has been asleep for a long time. If you notice the tunnel missing, open the app once and it will connect again.
