Yup, you really are missing the point so no point carrying on. Anyway, refund is pending and review has been left. Hope you treat your customers better in future.@djalix69: Thanks for your insights, but yeah, seems I still miss the point. Where did I say it was customers fault? Where did I upset you? Where did I treat you bad? I clearly came up with a statement, an explanation of why the problem happened, trying to find a solution which unfortunately doesn't exist and how to refund. This was my first response to you and @berno and I repeated it several times explaining it further. This is exactly what you're writing/asking for in your post. I don't know what you expect from me further? Is it because I can't refund it directly to you? Well, it's the App Store, there's Apple in the way, I just don't have the possibility for that... It's not like buying from my own shop where I have control over payment, it goes directly through Apple (who then also take their 30% of it). Otherwise I clearly don't understand the problem.
@BigMcGuire: Enjoy your pizza then! I went with a sandwich

Just submitted version 2.9.8, which should hopefully be better regarding Premium status after updating.
Working great for me!
The connection imitations are a lot faster too! I like how I click on the server and it'll change the connection to the server almost instantly.
Very nice.
Also I am making sure to use the US (Middle) for the unlimited bandwidth
(I am a light user anyway so it works for me).
When I upgraded the app and got the spinning wheel I posted about, I didn't realize you had separated the purchases as I had suggested. I went ahead and purchased the lifetime a few moments ago.@BigMcGuire Thanks for your support. Yeah it's sad, but I knew it will happen, I'm trying to not bother too much. Having a father like that also didn't help much
About the Mac App, I hope that exactly these problems you mention I have fixed in the today's update version 2.9.7. I couldn't reproduce it myself, so maybe it does the trick. But I'm also at a limit here, the iPad to Mac conversion thing in Xcode (called Mac Catalyst) isn't as good as I thought.
About the servers: On the 3 free ones I have unlimited traffic, the others don't. So I have to monitor them.
@Apple_Robert: Yeah but how, if Apple doesn't allow me to gift the In-App Purchase? Should I PayPal them? Through my code it also isn't possible to distinguish.
About the Premium issue, are you also one of them who bought the combined lifetime unlock one?
Even though there are some things that probably could have been handled a little better, I still think you are an honest guy who is trying to make a good app and that is why I made another purchase.
Thank you very much for your support!
I really appreciate it.Yes, I maybe shouldn't have to rush that much with the Mac App, so I could have better thought before to avoid such a mistake… But have to continue now from here.
Glad to hear that! Send me a PM or feedback through App with your PayPal address and the amount, then I'll do.
I have already sent you an email to mail@swizzvpn.ch with my PayPal address and the amount.
Just wanted to report usage:
I had SwizzVPN on for almost 24 hours - and I put it through the paces. I used the US Middle server. I could not tell the difference between my 500/500 FIOS the entire day. And I do World of Warcraft Classic at night with Discord (voice chat). I did calls, loaded webpages, did a little Youtube - it was perfect.
I actually forgot I still had VPN on when I woke up this morning.
That's a win in my book.

Happy to hear that!
If you mind, it would help me to have a review in the App Store.
Thanks for your great reviews @BigMcGuire
In the upcoming version I enabled Light/Dark-Mode depending on system setting.

I think it would be best to remove mention of that entirely. Let people find out second-hand. Otherwise, you will risk rejection of your app.
Yeah.. I'm just calling it „Connect over TCP-443“ now.
The new update for both iOS and Mac is now online. I think that's it for a while, since I didn't receive any bugs/complaints.

Hah very nice - love the dark mode switch on the top right. I like the simplicity of the site.
The Mac app (latest release on M2 MBA Ventura) seems to still have a problem trying to auto reconnect after the Mac has been idle for a while. It is still getting stuck in the yellow connecting loop. Once I wake the Mac, I find I am not connecting to the internet and I have to stop the app from trying to reconnect, and then I manually connect and it works.
Usually it should pick up at least after 10 seconds. How often does it happen? May you test the next time, if it picks up after a minute? Have to look where I can tweak that further, and see if the macOS 13.3 release next week changes something.
It has happened about 4 times now. I don't believe it has happened every time, though.
Found a parameter to enable a disconnect on sleep feature. Will implement that for the next Mac version (3.0.2) to see if it helps.
