Description
Tailscale is a mesh VPN alternative that makes it easy to connect your devices, wherever they are. No more fighting configuration or firewall ports. Built on WireGuard®, Tailscale enables an incremental shift to zero-trust networking by implementing “always-on” remote access. This guarantees a consistent, portable, and secure experience independent of physical location.
WireGuard is a registered trademark of Jason A. Donenfeld.

Ratings and Reviews
Fantastic!
This saves me a ton of hassle. This allows me to access WhatsApp while on work Wi-Fi by routing through my home network. I’m also able to benefit from my Pihole server as a result. I tried a diy wireguard setup and just couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong. This was super easy to setup and performance seems great. One nice feature to add would be the ability to have a timer set so that I disconnect from the vpn automatically by a certain time. I sometimes forget to disconnect and this can cause issues when I’m moving between Wi-Fi and cell data.
Great on Vision Pro but Missing Dark Mode User Setting
Feature request: Add an app settings for theme with three options: Light, Dark, System Setting. Tailscale uses system preferences to toggle dark mode. Unfortunately, visionOS doesn’t have this setting so the app defaults to light mode.
Other than this minor gripe, Tailscale is amazing. I use it to remote into my home computers from anywhere in the world and with an exit node, I can access all of my favorite streaming apps.
Getting better, but battery life is still a HUGE issue
App has definitely gotten better with updates and so I’m thankful for that. Not that long ago I had to force quit the app a few times to finally get it to connect and not give me re-auth errors. However, battery life and management is still a very very big deterrent to using this how I originally wanted to, which is always-on, using my pi-hole server for DNS and ad blocking. I’m following the issue in GitHub. Please please fix! Many users seeing the same thing and providing dumps. If you guys can get the battery usage under control then the app will be UNSTOPPABLE.
