What is Kill-Switch?

VPN conceals your original IP address. When you connect to the Internet through a VPN application, a new IP address is allocated instead of the original. But if you change your geographic connecting location, for example, from the UK to France, or if the Internet drops, the VPN service may become inactive, and your original IP might show. The KillSwitch feature solves this issue. Upon the VPN service reconnecting, in cases of Internet connection loss or changes in connecting location, KillSwitch prevents the original IP showing up. Thus, if you enable KillSwitch in our application, you can be sure that your original IP will never show. To enable KillSwitch, press menu Settings on the left bottom corner and tick Enable KillSwitch. If you use such streaming devices as Chromecast, DLNA, AirPlay etc, make sure that Allow Local Network Connections is switched on.
