Privacy Pro
Privacy Pro is an iOS privacy app from Disconnect that blocks trackers across apps and websites by using an on-device VPN-style filtering setup.
What is Privacy Pro?
Privacy Pro is a privacy and security app designed to reduce tracking across apps and websites on iPhone and iPad. It helps users limit hidden trackers, block malicious sites, and add protection for certain unencrypted connections without routing all traffic through a traditional remote VPN service. This makes it useful for people who want broader mobile privacy controls than a browser-only content blocker can provide. The app is aimed at everyday users who want to cut down on app and web tracking while keeping setup relatively simple inside iOS. Because it works through a VPN-style local configuration, users may notice that it occupies the device VPN slot while active. Disconnect publishes the app as part of its consumer privacy tools.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This is a legitimate privacy tool whose network filtering is normal for its purpose. It uses a VPN-style configuration on iPhone or iPad to block trackers, which can affect how some apps or networks behave and may prevent using another VPN at the same time. Keep it updated, and if you rely on a separate VPN service, check which one should control your device connection.
Recommendation: Keep Privacy Pro if you use it to limit tracking on iPhone or iPad. If you no longer use its filtering features, removing it is usually fine and will stop its tracker blocking and any related network protection it provides.
