Our verdict on Passepartout

Passepartout is an open-source VPN client for Apple users who already have server access or a supported provider profile. It imports and connects to OpenVPN and WireGuard profiles across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV. That distinction matters: Passepartout supplies connection tools, not a VPN service with its own network. It is aimed at people who want to configure how their Apple devices connect, rather than buyers looking for a provider to supply servers and subscriptions.

Its feature set goes beyond basic profile import and connection. Users can configure on-demand VPN rules, custom routing, and DNS and HTTP proxy overrides; OpenVPN connections also support XOR obfuscation. Shortcuts automation adds a way to connect VPN actions with Apple workflows, while optional iCloud profile sharing and profile export support moving or sharing configurations. Apple TV support extends the client beyond phones and computers. These options suit users who need control over routing or connection behavior, though they also make Passepartout a more configuration-oriented choice than a turnkey VPN subscription.

Passepartout has a free plan for basic import and connection features, with in-app purchases for additional capabilities. The published plans include Core options for iOS, macOS, or both, an Apple TV plan, and Forever as a permanent purchase option; the official site says the standalone Mac release currently has free features only. The plan names indicate platform-specific feature unlocks, so buyers should match a purchase to the devices they intend to configure. Choose Passepartout if you want a configurable Apple client for your own VPN profiles. Choose a VPN provider instead if you need the service to supply a server network.
