Lanished VPN: one-click VPN with a no-logs policy
By Kelvin Ooi
Security and privacy editor
- Encryption for traffic on public networks, per the developer
- One-click connection with no settings to configure
- Tunnel set up in seconds, according to the developer
- No-logs policy: browsing data not recorded or shared
- Access to geographically restricted content, as advertised
What the VPN is for and who it suits
The listing describes Lanished VPN as a VPN proxy for people who want to protect their online activity. It asks very little of the user: the description states there is nothing complex to set up, only a single tap to connect.
The developer, RAMESH WEP, presents the app for two main purposes: private browsing on shared connections and reaching content that is blocked by location. The rest of the listing is brief, so those two uses are what the app is advertised for.
Connecting with a single tap
Opening the app and tapping once is the whole connection process, according to the listing. There is no configuration screen described for choosing servers, protocols or options.
The developer says a secure tunnel is established within seconds of that tap. Anyone who wants a VPN they do not have to manage will find this the core of the app.
Encryption on public Wi-Fi and networks
The developer says data is encrypted immediately when it is used in public places. The listing presents this as the main protection the app offers.
On paper, that means traffic leaving the device on an unfamiliar network is encrypted before it reaches that network. The listing does not say how the encryption works, so this is a description of the claim rather than of the mechanism.
The no-logs policy and what happens to your data
The listing states a no-logs policy that the developer describes as strictly enforced. It says user data will not be recorded or shared.
That statement is the developer's own. A reader who cares most about this point should treat the no-logs policy as a written commitment from the developer, since the listing offers no further detail on how it is kept.
