On iOS it requires installing a VPN profile. My understanding from their FAQ is that it is to allow DNS proxying in iOS but it’s not clear to me if that’s all it does. Up to this day, seeing the VPN logo in my status bar has always meant my traffic was forwarded to a VPN server which meant it couldn’t be snooped on by my ISP. Is it also the case here?
- elithrar 8y agoVPN profiles in iOS can be used for network-level configuration: despite the label, that doesn’t have to mean just a VPN tunnel. In this case, the profile is ONLY configuring DNS: there is no VPN tunnel being created. The “VPN icon” in the status bar just indicates the profile is active.
