## Key features

- **Channel bonding:** Combines Wi-Fi, cellular, Ethernet, tethered phones and satellite into a single connection so traffic keeps flowing if one link drops.
- **Streaming priority:** Livestreams on the major platforms are given priority automatically, and the vendor lists support for OBS, Streamlabs, StreamYard and others.
- **Encrypted traffic:** Traffic is encrypted, and the vendor says this also stops an ISP from telling browsing from streaming or gaming.
- **Premium servers:** Paid plans include extra servers in more than 50 locations. Dedicated and self-hosted servers are optional add-ons.
- **Wide platform coverage:** Apps for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and iPadOS, Android and OpenWrt routers, with Router plans that cover a whole network.

## Good for

- Streamers and remote workers who want to bond several connections
- Travelers combining campground Wi-Fi, cellular and Starlink
- Teams that need a central dashboard and an API

## Worth knowing

- The free allowance is 5 GB a month, so regular use needs a paid plan.
- Each account works on up to 5 devices at once; the Family plan has 5 accounts.
- Dedicated Server add-ons start at $75 a month billed yearly ($120 billed monthly); self-hosted servers start at $25 a month billed yearly ($40 monthly).
- Router plans are priced by monthly prioritized data, from 100GB at $129 a year to 3TB at $450 a year, and are not listed in the plan table above.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.8 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. Speedify joins Wi-Fi, cellular, Ethernet and other links into one encrypted connection, which suits streaming and calls on shaky networks. The free allowance is 5 GB a month, one account covers only 5 devices, and the cheap price needs a 3-year commitment.

- **Value for money: C.** $4.99 a month needs 3 years paid up front ($179.99). A year is $89.99 ($7.49 a month) and monthly is $14.99, which sits in the dearest tenth.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** 5 GB of data a month on any platform. It's a cap a regular user will hit, and then it's the paid plan.
- **Features: B.** Channel bonding, automatic priority for livestreams, encryption, premium servers in 50+ locations, plus teams features and an API. Nothing core is missing for the job it does.
- **Ease of use: B.** No store rating on record. It's an app you install and connect, though bonding several links takes some setup.
- **Platforms and integrations: A.** Windows, Mac, Linux, iOS, Android and OpenWrt routers, with OBS, Streamlabs, StreamYard, Twitch and Zoom listed, and a CLI and API on Teams.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Speedify you would be making servers in dozens of countries, kept fast and private. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 20 of the 27 other VPNs we grade. It costs $59.88 a year.

- You could not: Servers in dozens of countries, kept fast and private.
- You could not: Apps for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, OBS, Streamlabs and StreamYard among them, and has an API.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
