4.2 out of 5
Cannot Open (Updated)

When I open OutlineApp , all I see is a white screen. Uninstalled then reinstalled, same result.

Running the latest possible iOS (9) on an iPad2.

UPDATE: A week after my review, the team released an update that "fixed" the issue. Now OutlineApp is "not compatible with [my] device". Highly disappointing.

Sidebar support

Your application is amazing but doesn't support of sidebar and multitasking that is very annoying.

Easy to use

OutlineApp is a very clean and easy-to-use shadowsocks app. I wish there will be support for shadowsocksr also.

Need landscape mode support

Landscape mode is required when using with magic keyboard. Hope Outline can support it.

Feature request

Thanks for your fantastic app.
Please consider to add 2 new features:
1. Kill Switch
2. Ability to change connections order

Could you please tell me how to set the proxy rules?

Like bypassing mainland ip etc.

App is crashing recently

Everything was fine but I couldnโ€™t open OutlineApp anymore, even after reinstalling

Add share feature

It would be neat if a share feature existed so we could share the addresses of the servers with other PCs and phones with QR scanning or anything else

Great but needs more functionalities

I will give it 5 starts if it supports the switch between Auto Mode and Global Mode.

Good but not yet.

OutlineApp only supports shadowsocks VPN
and I cannot use shadowsocksR,v2ray in it,so this is the bad things.

Fast & Easy

All VPN protocols blocked in iran but i create a outline proxy server, it's work fine.
Thanks

Fantastic turnkey VPN solution

Works really well and seems to connect even when others wonโ€™t.

One suggestion to the awesome dev folks - any chance of a mobile version of Outline Manager can come to iOS? Would be quicker when in the trenches and need to create a new account ASAP.

Thanks for all the amazing work, very polished application!

Awesome!

Useful in Iran, China, UAE & all other heavy restricted countries.
Hope to see some more improvments.
Thank you

So far so good!

Iโ€™ve been up and running on Digital Oceanโ€™s droplet for 2 weeks now and everything is very smooth so far and super fast from China. Iโ€™m having some problems on my windows computer that appear to be isolated to my network drivers. However both Mac and iOS apps appear to be working fine.

This is definitely a necessity when doing business in China and you have more control over who is watching your data because you never know if the VPN providers are logging your actions.

Phenomenal VPN

Fantastic app with an unbelievably easy setup process. Highly recommend.

Excellent

A non brainer VPN solution. Outline Manager will allow you to get a Shadowsocks server running fast, and OutlineApp will allow you to connect to it. Very, very good.

Great but need some improvements

This is the most powerful VPN I've ever used. But it has issues with FTPs and also with some Apps like Instagram. Sometimes prevents receiving Push Notifications most from WhatsApp.

does what it should

Itโ€™s doing what itโ€™s supposed to do, no problem. Following the setup recipe was easy enough, and itโ€™s got a nice user interface on both iOS and MacOS.

So far it has been working well

This is my first time to have installed this on my iPad, it is quite easy to get to the open Internet with purchasing a server. Anyway, I will still watch how it would help me with the access to open Internet.

Fantastic app!

Well built with stylish designing features! Very good user experience!

Good app for networks

possible to have a notification control and 3D Touch quick action? That would be amazing if so!
