Independent audits like this are crucial for VPN trust. I’ve been using app store vpn to change region mainly for accessing region-locked content and it works pretty well overall. Successfully unblocked Netflix libraries from different countries, connection is stable most of the time, and the interface is user-friendly. Occasionally speeds drop during peak hours and had one instance where certain streaming sites detected it, but those are minor issues. For the price and ease of use, I’m quite satisfied with it for region switching.
