Release history and developer statement

Both released versions included a visible Network Source feature for importing node records from preset third-party public subscriptions. Their App Store descriptions were not updated to disclose it. We acknowledge the disclosure mismatch and inadequate control of changing third-party content. This is distinct from the free VPN XX release-history statement.

Status clarification · September 13, 2026

Before the September 2 Pending Termination Notice, EasyTallys was In Review. The other six listings — VPN XX, VPN XX PRO, SpellVPN Tool, SpellVPN Ultra, ArtCut and ArtCut Pro — were shown as Distributable.

The developer now reports that all seven apps have been removed from the public App Store, while their status records remain visible in App Store Connect. Storefront removal does not mean that the app records or platform/version statuses have disappeared. A visible status is not evidence of restored distribution or membership.

This clarification was supplied by the developer on September 13. It is not an independent live check of App Store Connect, an Apple receipt, or a change to the preserved September 12 source evidence.

What the inspected material supports

The catalog excerpt confirms fixed public-source entries in the current source. Public URL values are explicitly redacted; no working routes or credentials are distributed in this evidence package. A local Mac listing excerpt shows the user-supplied-only wording that required correction. This draft excerpt is not an export of the exact historical App Store listing; the released-version facts were separately confirmed by the developer.

Next steps / not yet verified as complete

Before a replacement submission, we will remove preset public sources and catalog references, retain user-supplied imports, use new version/build numbers, preserve the archive, and align descriptions, screenshots, privacy, endpoints, and Review Notes. Updating this website does not remove the feature from installed iOS 1.0.7 or Mac 1.0.1. We seek a fresh review, not automatic restoration of these binaries.

VPN XX shared source: preset catalog (URLs redacted)

Exactly three URL values are replaced with [REDACTED PUBLIC SUBSCRIPTION URL]. All other selected lines are preserved. This catalog is also present in the current shared free-edition development tree; it is not evidence of the historical free iOS 1.0.8 binary. PRO release facts are separately developer-confirmed.

VPN XX PRO: earlier local Mac listing wording

This local draft illustrates the user-supplied-only wording that required correction. It is not an export of the historical App Store listing.

Selected excerpt

Source: VPNAccountManager/MacAppStore/en-US.md · 15–31

Numbered source excerpt; selected lines preserved.

   15 | ## Description

   19 | Key features:
   20 | 
   21 | • Subscription management: Add, refresh, group, and organize multiple subscription links.
   22 | • Multi-protocol parsing: VLESS, VMess, Trojan, Shadowsocks, ShadowsocksR, SOCKS5, HTTP, WireGuard, Hysteria, Hysteria2, TUIC, Clash/Mihomo YAML, and sing-box JSON.
   23 | • Organized node list: View nodes by subscription group, with search, filtering, and expand/collapse controls.
   24 | • Latency testing: Measure reachability and connection latency through real TCP connections. Results are not simulated.
   25 | • QR import: Import subscription links or node configurations from QR codes.
   26 | • Flexible sharing: Copy links, use the system share sheet, or create QR codes in VLESS, Clash, URI, and other supported formats.

How to read this evidence

The record combines developer-confirmed release history, current local source excerpts, local metadata drafts, and two original developer-supplied form screenshots. These are different evidence types. No exact historical upload archives, Apple upload receipts, production service authorization documents, or new App Store approvals are included. A SHA-256 digest identifies the captured bytes; it does not certify that Apple reviewed or received them. Selected excerpts are not an exhaustive code or binary audit.

This is a public, sanitized record with identical content for all readers. It omits personal account identifiers, private correspondence, node credentials and working public subscription URLs. It is not password protected. Original materials can be provided privately to Apple through an appropriate channel if requested. Search-engine noindex is a preference, not access control.

Explanatory pages are available in English, Chinese and Russian. Source excerpts and original screenshots remain unchanged in their original languages; translations are not original evidence.
