![]() But some feature-heavy VPNs can have very well-organized apps, as we say in our review of Private Internet Access (PIA).Īny issues with the settings menu are helped by the fact that the default settings are already correct for the average user. To be fair, Windscribe's extensive options give it a better excuse for a clumsy app than we saw in some of our other VPN reviews. Nostalgia is great, but I don’t want it in my VPN app. I love the look of Windscribe on iOS, but the Fire TV app reminds me of a generations-old Nintendo video game. The settings section in the macOS app is cluttered, which is primarily due to the large number of options that Windscribe includes. The Windscribe app is not the prettiest thing you’ll ever see. So if you stream HD or UHD content, you may find the guarantee only lasts for one good movie night.ĭownloading and installing Windscribe was easy on all the devices I tried - Windows, macOS, iOS, and Fire TV Stick - although having to manually enter a password on my Fire TV Stick was a minor inconvenience (most apps on their platform let you log in through a computer). You have up to 3 days or 20 GB of data usage (whichever comes first) before the guarantee period ends. ![]() Windscribe’s money-back guarantee, however, leaves much to be desired. That’s 15+ GB of free VPN usage per month! If you are streaming HD content, that’s still probably only 5 hours, but it’s still impressive for a free tier. Confirming your email address adds 8 GB more, tweeting about the product adds another 5 GB, and each friend you refer adds another 1 GB. That’s already more than most free VPN tiers, but it gets much better. Instead of a free trial, Windscribe offers an entirely free tier of service that starts at 2 GB of data per month. ![]() Windscribe manages to excel at one of these two things. It’s always easier to try a new VPN when they offer a great free trial and a generous money-back guarantee. How It Felt to Use Windscribe Windscribe VPN running on an Amazon Fire TV Stick
