Speedify Keeps Your iPhone from Getting Stuck on Access-less Wi-Fi Networks

Think of Speedify as your own personal Internet connection manager; it watches your Wi-Fi and cellular data connections to see what's fastest, and also checks to make sure you really have a path out to the Internet.

For example, if you've ever been stung by an open Xfinity Wi-Fi network that doesn't really get you on the Internet, Speedify is a godsend. Instead of needing to jump into Settings on your iPhone to forget the Xfinity network, or disable Wi-Fi to force an LTE or 4G connection, Speedify automatically makes the switch for you.

To use Speedify Mobile for iOS, one first needs to download the free Speedify iOS app. The first time you run the app, you’ll be asked to install a Speedify VPN Configuration. This is part of the magic that allows Speedify to measure the quality of your connections,  and to utilize both Cellular and Wi-Fi data if possible. You then create or login to your account, select a Speedify server to connect to, and you’re done. Before you connect, be sure to enable Wi-Fi and connect to a nearby access point.

The app shows the status and reliability of your connection(s) and will constantly monitor them to make sure at least one of them is reliable, without the user having to fiddle with their iOS settings.  Under the best of conditions, if both are reliable, then they will be bonded, which will offer a speed boost by combining your Cellular and Wi-Fi bandwidth.  Speedify can be used for free with up to 1 GB/month of data, as well as various pricing plans for data above that.
