Disadvantage Of Windscribe

Windscribe is undoubtedly one of the best free VPN services available for various platforms including Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, etc. However, it is not perfect. You should check out the setbacks before opting for this VPN app. Here are few things that an advanced VPN app should have but you cannot find them in Windscribe.

1. It doesn’t have a network kill switch, which is an important factor for security concerned people. Network kill switch is not a physical switch. It lets you cut down the connection between you and the website if there is some issues on the VPN server. Your IP may get leaked if your VPN app doesn’t have this facility.
2. This VPN service doesn’t offer double-layer connection. Double-layer connection helps you beat the network analyzer and attacker from finding your IP address through VPN server. It allows you to connect to a VPN server and the first VPN server would be connected to another VPN server. That way, there is no method to find out your IP address even if the VPN doesn’t offer network kill switch.
3. You cannot apply this VPN for other app since this is a browser extension. If you want to use the same VPN on another application such as Firefox, Opera, Evernote, etc., you need to install the desktop app of Windscribe.
