REVIEW SPEEDIFY FREE
You don't have to register, hand over your email address or anything else, and the app doesn't have any restrictions, so the free plan is an ideal way to test the service basics (whether it is fast enough for you, or it can unblock a particular site or service, and so on). We say 'apparently' because although it says that on the website, and it's the allowance we saw on a mobile device, a Windows setup claimed we had 5GB available.Įven at 2GB, that's just about enough to be useful. Speedify offers a free plan (opens in new tab), which apparently limits you to 2GB of data a month and use on a single device. You can fire off emails as required, though, and we've generally received helpful replies within an hour or two. Support is available if you need it, but the support website is weak (the ' Using Speedify (opens in new tab)' section has articles on such technical topics as following the company on Twitter and buying new products at its store) and there's no live chat. Smart header compression automatically shrinks the headers on data packets, and an iPerf3-powered integrated speed test tracks performance over time. The new Speedify 11 apps use multiple TCP transport mode to optimize speeds even with a single internet connection. Support for DNS over HTTPS may allow you to get connected in more places, even if they're actively blocking VPNs.Ī Streaming Mode automatically identifies and prioritizes audio and video streams, reducing the chance that they'll be affected by downloads, browsing and anything else you're doing. The company warns that P2P 'is not allowed on most of our Speed Servers', but torrents are permitted on 'select servers.' For 'select', read 'not enough' – we tried three times to connect to a P2P-friendly server, and each time got a 'this server is at capacity' message, something we don't recall happening with any other P2P-supporting VPN.Įlsewhere, features include the ability to set your VPN DNS to several popular services: Cloudflare, AdGuard, OpenDNS, Google DNS and more.
