I was still running two different versions on two boxes which were both downloaded through the Playstore this morning. I updated the .apk through the website as well.
Now that I know that this stabilized with update as it’s been running great again, I put Windscribe on one box to see how well it works
If you’re simply using a VPN for encryption purposes I can’t say for sure which is the best and I’ve honestly had only used two in my life, Nord and Express. What I can tell you is if you’re using one to bypass geo restricted content I believe Express is the best. It’s a hit and miss even with them at times and some servers are recognized as a proxy but they have many to choose from. In my experience, for example, if you want to use a server based in LA it’s always best to choose one followed by a number such as Los Angeles 2 or 3. That’s just an example but applies to most servers that the option is available for.
I recently went back to Nord and find it to be faster than Surfshark I’ve been using.
