It works as a normal functional VPN (via our private servers) but the main idea is traffic classification and reports. It's impossible to get this data on iOS without VPN.

Violated guideline: 5 Performance: Software Requirements. Unapproved use of VPN in this context.

Yes, I agree, the post is emotional, but we do not hiding, selling history or do something related.

Hello, thanks for sharing. We tried to talk with our reviewer (phone and resolution center) but he insists, that VPN is not intended for such use case. In my opinion it depends on the viewpoint. Reviewer's view is that we use VPN for functionality not related to VPN. Our view is that we _are_ VPN that provides extended functionality.

Thank you for this advice, this is really helpful. Unfortunately I don't have any good contacts, but I'm going to WWDC this year. Maybe some advices about how to establish this relationship? Never did this before.
