Help us distribute free IVPN accounts for people in Ukraine and Russia
I was mistaken about the lack of workaround though. There is an option for iOS users to get connected - they can download the WireGuard app for example and set up a manual connection as described on the bottom of this page: https://www.ivpn.net/apps-ios/ This is a hoop non-technical folks might not be able to jump through. This is the best we can do now.
