What Betternet's own pages show
Suits
- Casual users who want a free VPN with no sign-up
- People who want to trial an ad-free VPN for 7 days
- Households with many devices under one Premium account
Limits worth knowing
- The free version shows ads and, per the vendor's App Store reply, connects to a US server only; Premium removes the ads.
- The vendor's site did not show a pricing page when read; the prices come from the App Store listing and a promotion notice on the home page.
- The home page still displays a $71.99 first-year promotion whose stated end date, March 24, 2026, has passed; it renews at $95.99 a year.
- Trials convert to paid plans unless cancelled at least 24 hours before they end.
Read from the vendor’s pages, not from reviews. The tool page lists them.
