Rocket VPN
Rocket VPN is a virtual private network utility for macOS that encrypts network traffic and masks the user's IP address. VPN apps are used to protect privacy on public Wi-Fi, bypass geographical restrictions on content, secure remote connections, and prevent ISPs or network administrators from monitoring browsing activity. Rocket VPN typically runs as a menu-bar application and offers a list of server locations to connect through.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find current information about Rocket VPN's Apple Silicon support status. The app runs under Rosetta 2 today if it is Intel-only, but that will no longer work when Apple removes Rosetta in macOS 28 (September 2028) — approximately 28 months from now. Contact the developer directly to confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned. If the developer is unresponsive or inactive, consider switching to a well-maintained alternative such as Mullvad VPN, ProtonVPN, or Windscribe, all of which offer free or freemium tiers, run natively on Apple Silicon, and are actively maintained. Check the developer's website or contact support to get a clear timeline for native support before deciding to migrate.
