For the first time ever, you can protect your personal data with Proton VPN on your iOS device with our official application. Users with Plus and Visionary accounts can begin testing our beta app and enjoying all our advanced security features — including our Secure Core servers, Kill Switch feature, and Secure Streaming.
We would like to thank the entire Proton VPN community for your patience and continued support. Over the past year, we received hundreds of messages asking about the iOS application, so the pressure was real.
There were friendly reminders:
Yesterday I completed my Protonization process started with @protonmail on 2014: PLUS subscription to @protonvpn! Now I am waiting for the iOS official app!

And sad ones:
Dear @ProtonVPN when will native iOS App be released? I am paying for your great service but have to use that workaround on my mobile devices ?

And many of you were… eager.
Pressuring for @ProtonVPN to be ready for iOS.
