Since the SDK update, if the iOS system is set for dark mode, then F5Access trys to respond to that. Appears that F5Access was not tested with dark mode, and now you can't read a bunch of text. So....fix dark mode?

There is no internet connection whenever I connect to the VPN. I’ve tried restarting the client, my phone, and reinstalling F5Access with no success. I triple checked my credentials, my phone’s up to date, and notifications are enabled. I’ve toggled WiFi on and off with no success. I have a good mobile connection otherwise when the client is off. This VPN client just doesn’t seem to work.

It will no longer establish a VPN connection to go through a tunnel. The website has some ridiculous explanation about a split between iPad and iPhone but I only have it on my iPad. It claims it does not recognize the browser or connection. This needs to be fixed. It does not work and is currently useless

Please add support for Touch ID and Face ID. This will make using F5Access more efficient.

I don’t want F5Access, yet it continues to try to download multiple times per day. Make it stop!

It need to be updated to be use on the iOS 12

It would be super awesome if this new app would work on all networks. Currently the only consistent thing I can make it work on is Verizon LTE. F5Access doesn’t seem to bind to any Wi-Fi network or any LTE other than Verizon. Fix this one or upgrade the legacy app please!
Update 10/22/2018
Updated iOS app to new version and yes now the vpn does not disconnect anymore but it still isn’t allowing access from random Wi-Fi networks and only verzion LTE. Sprint LTE is a no go. Don’t know if it’s related to a specific device but I’m using a sprint iPhone XS and a Verizon iPad Pro. Please fix it already!!!! The old app version had none of these issues.....

Client is awesome. Works well over inconsistent networks, including airplane WiFi. Was able to do FaceTime 35k feet in the air over a satellite link!
