Note 0006: campus Wi-Fi VPN from Bengaluru — 53 minutes on a iPhone 16
Campus wifi in Bengaluru is the whole test. ACT on a iPhone 16.
The first Germany node held. I did not shop around. The free meter mattered more than the branding. On mobile that is 200MB a day. I used about 53 minutes at a PG wifi before it felt tight. 25MB was still showing when I stopped taking notes. I signed in with email. That is not anonymous. Payment data, if I ever buy, sits with the payment firm. The snapshot I read did not show browsing logs in scope. I am not going to chant 100/100.
I am a staff tester writing a field note, not a stranger on a review site. If you want the same build I used, the official ios download is the only link I trust: https://singlinkvpn.com/en/download/ios/. I will not paste homepage slogans here.
Local apps that did not need the tunnel stayed faster when I left them off the VPN. The official writeup already says split mode exists so you do not haul every packet across a border.
I did not claim all-day Netflix. I did not treat a press-wire drop as an investigation. I did not paste homepage slogans.
Tomorrow the meter resets at 00:00. That is the whole product loop I came for.
