  • Auto-connect can be used on its own.

  • Kill Switch depends on Auto-connect.

  • When you enable Kill Switch, it automatically turns on Auto-connect.

  • When you turn off Auto-connect, Kill Switch automatically turns off.

Important warning

  • While Kill Switch is on, internet access can be blocked when VPN is not actively connected.

  • If you lose network access unexpectedly, reconnect VPN or turn off Kill Switch from Profile.

  • The in-app warning also notes that iOS may route some Apple service traffic outside the VPN regardless of this setting.
