VPN and mobile app

I just found out that the SimpliSafe app no longer works on my iPhone when the VPN is on! That isn't right. Doesn't make sense that a security based company, would eliminate another, product engaged in security and internet problems.

Please listen and change this decision.

That's a problem with your VPN, not the simplisafe app.  Mine works fine through a VPN.

iOS 13.5.1, SimpliSafe app Version 2074.31.0.  No issues using the VPN.  Check with your VPN provider, as all VPNs are not created equal.

The issue is that something changed. I've had the same VPN that worked for 3 years. Nothing changed publicly with my VPN, but I did get an update with Simplisafe 3 days ago that made it stop working....

Yes You have to eliminate the VPN in your Mobile phone to using the SimpliSafe . Because VPN has to something blocked your IP address so that why you don't use SimpliSafe properly on your mobile phone.
