I got the dreaded message that the app will stop monitoring about an hour & a quarter after updating. Opened the app & turned it back on & still worked till i shutdown a few hours later.

So I actually subscribed early this morning and some validation of my card was going on still when I got home 11 hours later!
They removed money from my debit card, which failed a manual review somehow at Paddle. Angry letter sent to Paddle and developer who is losing sales because the card processor is rejecting valid cards!!
There are archive versions of the old apk out there and it does have intents to ācall homeā but I may see if I can work around (sinkhole) them if the dot means anything to others. For some reason it always gave a message at startup like the service was down - I added in my firewall a closer āresolution spotā for the IP, fixed it.

it looks like vpn monitoring is part of the free version again. at least I havenāt received a message for a good day now.
the other features are still premium. Iām currently still using the free version but if there are more premium features coming then I might buy soon.

Itās a shame, its comforting to see the green dot, but Iām reluctant to give card details, so will be uninstalled.

Also, when you are using SS on a tablet or phone. The SS icon will appear up in the lefthand corner as an indicator that you are protected. This icon does not appear on my nVidia, or my laptop, but as you stated SS has a few safeguards you can use to make sure your vpn is activated for all apps, or specific ones of your choosing, or even disconnecting your internet connecting if the vpn is dropped.
Just a quick note here, I am sure most of you know that SS with a kill switch is much less expensive than the dot. They need to seriously re-evaluate the market, adjust the prices and perhaps sell it for a few dollars in the app stores. I personally believe they are setup to fail with this at this price point.

Is there something else we can us
Nothing like the dot at this time.
I wonder if the Tech Doc is working on something?
Mine is still working as usualā¦see the āactivate premiumā box above the on/off button, but I just click it to on & Iāve been good to goā¦so farā¦but Iām sure I just jinxed it & itāll go south on me anytime 
I uninstalled mine and then tried an experiment. I thought maybe I could install an older APK. So I picked one from sept. lat year. No good. It locked my system up and I had to hit my āhomeā button to get out and delete it. So definitely gone for me. oooops.

The strange thing is, it seems to be working in basic mode. I just used it over 4 hours. Then I shut it off. Not sure what they are doing.

Well I have V202 on my 4k and 204 on my 4kmax. The 202 added a button to upgrade but does not have the new ones for added benefits if you subscribe. I used 204 last night for about 5 hours and this morning there was a notification about the free trial has expired. I dismissed it and immediately turned the dot on again.
For users that donāt need it 24/7 and that is probably many of you, itās only a restart for now so itās still as useful as it was to me before. I do have SS and a kill switch so either way I am ok but true, itās nice to see that dot.

I used to have an app that could change the VPN Safety Dot Icon to whatever you wish, but I canāt remember what it is called. Do any of you know?
