    I have been updating this review consistently over the past few months, while I'm glad for the privacy Proton offers, their service is terrible, and their customer service is condescending and unhelpful. I will not pay for this service again. On mobile specifically I find myself opening the app dozens of times a day to reconnect to a server because it hasn't been usable. --it just crashed while I was coming to update my complaints in this review. Quality remains inconsistent, crashes often.

    That doesn’t sound right. Could you share some more details about the issue? Are you receiving any error messages? Have you tried switching protocols? Are you using any other VPNs on the same device? Are you using any firewall or antivirus? Contact us through the 'Report an issue' option in the app menu so we can help you troubleshoot.
