Common Questions (FAQ)

How do I turn Ghosty on?
Open Ghosty and tap Enable Ghosty. iOS asks to add a VPN configuration — tap Allow and confirm with Face ID or your passcode. There is no VPN server: the configuration is how iOS lets Ghosty inspect your device's own connections. It appears in Settings → General → VPN & Device Management as “Ghosty”.
Free vs Premium?
Free: all five curated categories, today's blocked lookups and Insights, and up to 10 domains on your own blocklist.
Premium: every lookup (allowed as well as blocked), 7-day and 30-day Insights, real-time protection for tracker-looking domains that aren't on any list, an unlimited blocklist, and your choice of DNS resolver. Monthly, yearly, or a family plan for up to six people.
Restore purchases from the Premium screen.
Nothing is blocking?
Check that protection is on from Home, that Ghosty isn't paused, and that at least one category is switched on under Protection → Categories.
Can I turn it off for a while?
Yes. Switch protection off from Home and choose 15 minutes, 1 hour, or until tomorrow morning. Ghosty turns itself back on at the deadline, and you can remove the configuration any time in iOS Settings.
The configuration won’t install?
Ghosty needs iOS 18 or later. If you tapped Don't Allow, tap Enable Ghosty again. Restart your device if the prompt never appears.
