What is a VPN in iPhone terms

If you have found the VPN row in Settings and wondered what is the VPN in iPhone for, it is a system switch that sends all the phone's traffic through an encrypted tunnel, once an app has supplied the details. A small badge in the status bar shows when it is on. People who type VPN what is it iPhone have usually just noticed that row. It does nothing until an app fills it in. With Royal Key, that app is a free open source client, and the service is a key that you scan into it.

The App Store's expensive habit

Look up free VPNs for iPhone in the App Store, and scroll down to In-App Purchases on the top results. A good many of them charge by the week after a three day trial, and over a year that comes to far more than any reputable service costs. The best free VPNs for iPhone, judged honestly, are a handful of capped tiers from known companies. Lists of the best iPhone VPNs rarely mention the weekly billing, because the apps that do it advertise heavily.

Setup

1Install Streisand or V2Box from the App Store. Both are free. Shadowrocket is a paid alternative.
2Open @royalkey_club_bot in Telegram and ask for the free days.
3In the client, tap the plus sign and scan the QR code.
4iOS asks to add VPN configurations. Allow it, and confirm with Face ID or your passcode.
5Tap connect, and choose London or Manchester.

Things that iPhone owners ask

What VPN iPhone apps need: the VPN permission and nothing more.
iPhone VPNs on an iPad: the same client and the same key work, and the iPad counts as one of your five devices.
VPNs iPhone battery cost: slight, and mostly while data is moving.
iCloud Private Relay can stay switched on. The VPN carries the traffic while it is connected.
Your network's content lock, such as EE's or O2's, acts on mobile data. It cannot see inside the tunnel.

Before you subscribe to anything

✓Check In-App Purchases for weekly plans.
✓Open App Privacy and look at Data Used to Track You.
✓Tap the developer's name and see whether a real company stands behind it.
✓To cancel a subscription, go to Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions.
✓Try the service for a few days on your own network before you commit to anything.

Vpns for iPhone, without the theatre

A general purpose client has no account system, no adverts and no subscription. Its maker is not the company that sells you the connection, so neither side can quietly change the deal. If Streisand ever vanished from the store, the same key would work in V2Box or in Hiddify. We think that is how it ought to work.

The ledger

We keep no ledger of you, only of the key

Royal Key holds three things: a Telegram chat, the key sent to it and the date that key expires. No account sits behind them, so there is nothing for a log to attach to, and we never ask for a name, an email address or a phone number. It is a modest claim, and we prefer it to pretending that no jurisdiction could ever reach us.

Nothing on file
  • No account, email address or phone number
  • No record of the sites you visit
  • No connection times or IP addresses kept
  • No card details: you pay inside Telegram
  • No renewal and no charge you did not choose
