1.1.1.1 and Warp+ silently removed from the App Store

I am based in India and have been a warp+ customer for over two years and have been heavily reliant on them as a VPN. Really it’s the best mix of speed and stability for me.

I just woke up today to realise that my subscription has been cancelled and there is no way to make an in-app purchase from the 1.1.1.1 app anymore. Also, the 1.1.1.1 app has been removed from the Indian app store altogether.

This seems very unannounced and frantic. Is this something that was deliberate or some error on CF’s part? Does anyone have any idea?

I think this might be due to the rules against anonymous VPNs in India and why the team accounts are working.

To my understanding VPNs with full logging are allowed under the law, but not the anonymous ones. Not sure how this may impact iCloud+ Private Browsing (if at all).

Cloudflare have addressed this before, but this isn’t them. This is the VPN being banned by the Indian government, it’s been in sway of the App Store and Play Store for a little while now

Most of the time when I’ve seen these situations, the decision was made on the Apple Store side of the equation, usually for pedantic or competitive reasons. I’d still suggest opening a ticket with CloudFlare even though they don’t have the speediest customer service. They may point blame at Apple, but CF is really the only place you have the option to start asking questions. Good luck!

You need an Apple ID that region isn’t India
