All plansEvery guide has a date, versions and sources
What we do not promise
We do not promise that the VPN will work everywhere and always, and we do not set up devices for you. We write step-by-step guides, put an update date on each one, and say plainly where a step will not work. Сверчок is an independent service: the key apps are made by third-party developers.
How we write the guides- Updated
- System
- iOS 15 и новее
- Apps
- INCY 2.6.2, Happ 5.9.0
- Sources
- App Store, Happ release notes, INCY and Happ documentation, Apple Support article 102281
- Checked on a device
- not carried out
What we do not do
We do not write that the steps were tested on a device until someone has gone through them there. If we start testing the guides on phones, it will show in a line with the date, the model and the versions.
We do not publish screenshots of other people’s apps. Where it cannot be understood without a picture, we use a scheme captioned “scheme, not a screenshot”.
We do not rank or rate apps. We compare by facts: the device, the way to add the key, where the app will not work.
We do not pose as the developers of the apps. INCY, Happ and other apps are made by third-party teams; we are an independent service and are not affiliated with them.
Сверчок guides: how to connect a VPN

- Whether the app connects on another network, if the key and the device are fine.
Before you pay
All questionsWho takes out the subscription if the VPN is for my mom?
You do, with your own email. The personal account, payment and automatic payment stay with you, and you add the key to the app on her phone. You can forward her the guide for her device.
Guides by deviceWhich devices are the guides ready for?
iPhone and Android for now. For Mac there is a comparison of apps; for Windows, TV and router there are no guides yet. What is ready today is shown on the home page, in the section “What will work for your family”.
GuidesWhere can I see the prices of a key?
On the pricing page. The price depends on the subscription period, and the same page shows before payment when and how much will be charged on renewal.
To subscription periodsCan I get my money back if it does not suit me?
Yes. If you change your mind within the first 7 days after payment, we refund the full amount, and you do not need to give a reason. Later, we refund part of the amount, in proportion to the unused days.
Refund PolicyAre you affiliated with the developers of Happ?
No. Сверчок is an independent VPN service. Happ is a third-party app: it is made by another team, and our key is added to it the same way as a key from any other seller. We are not affiliated with the developers of INCY either.
Which app to chooseConnect yourself first, then your family.
First the key and the guide for your device. Once the VPN works for you, send the guide to the person you are setting it up for.
