- Limited platform support — no native apps for Linux, routers, smart TVs, or browser extensions are available
- No independent third-party security audit has been conducted to verify its no-logs claims, and its privacy policy is described as vague by reviewers
- macOS app lacks a kill switch — a basic privacy safety feature that is available on the Windows version
- Supports only 5–8 simultaneous connections, far fewer than the unlimited connections offered by competitors like Surfshark
- No streaming-optimized servers or SmartDNS, requiring manual server hopping to find working connections for streaming platforms
