Once you are signed into UltraVPN on iOS. You can easily navigate the settings by tapping on the gear icon, which will show in-depth the VPN settings you can toggle.
Here is the list of settings you will have available, and we will go through each one.
General
Connect on app launch
When you initially launch your iOS device, UltraVPN will be already activated in the background.
Disconnect on sleep
If this is toggled, the VPN will automatically disconnect when you put your device into sleep mode.
Always-on VPN
This feature cannot turn off, and for your security, it stays on. This setting will help reestablish the VPN connection automatically if the VPN somehow gets disconnected.
Kill Switch
This setting will help make everything more secure with you as it will automatically disable the connection to the internet if the VPN connection drops out of nowhere when you are connected.
Network Management
Secured WiFi:
enable secured Wi-Fi in the event you connect to a more private network, such as your home.
Unsecured WiFi:
Enable unsecured WiFi when you connect to a public network such as Starbucks.
Rules for Wifi Networks
Toggle this setting to route the VPN connection when you join certain Wifi networks. The VPN will recognize the Wifi you put in as a priority network to connect to.
Split-Tunneling (New)
Ultra on iOS has a Bypass feature that can bypass specific websites. Once you manually add a site to this feature, the VPN will automatically connect to that app once it has been opened. To add an app or site, click the check mark next to bypass and click the add option. (Note: This only works with Hydra Protocol enabled.)
You can also Route VPN access which will exclusively connect to the VPN always when the VPN is on. You can add apps to this feature by toggling it on via the check box and clicking add next. (Note: This only works with Hydra Protocol enabled.)
To disconnect the VPN once you have closed that site, you will need to go back into the UltraVPN application and disconnect it manually for both Bypass VPN and Route VPN.
VPN Protocol
Automatic (Recommended)
This is automatically turned on when you connect to a virtual location. When this protocol is selected, we will pick the fastest and most secure protocol to connect to for your network or area.
Hydra
This is our company-developed protocol. It only can be found with us. This unique protocol is the fastest in the VPN industry and faster than our other protocols. It is the most secure of our protocols, so whenever you have a technical problem, please try changing to Hydra.
IKEv2 (IPSec)
While being less secure than the other protocols, this is one of our very fast protocols under our belt. If not at par with Hydra, this is still a reliable protocol that may help with certain technical issues.
