To connect to Starlink with a phone, join the Starlink Wi-Fi network in your Android phone’s Wi-Fi settings. For faster uploads and downloads and fewer dropouts, run Starlink Wi-Fi and 4G/5G cellular at the same time.
Speedify is an app that combines two or more internet connections at once, such as Starlink and 4G/5G cellular, so you get faster uploads and downloads and stay online if one connection drops. Speedify needs that cellular connection: on Starlink Wi-Fi alone, it works as an encrypted VPN and cannot stop Starlink itself from dropping.
This guide shows how to combine Starlink Wi-Fi with 4G/5G cellular on Android using Speedify.
Note: Combine internet connections from different sources. Connecting to the same router over both Wi-Fi and Ethernet does not add speed, because both share one internet connection.

Starlink and 4G/5G Cellular on Android: Faster Downloads and Uploads, Fewer Dropouts
3 Steps to Combine Starlink and 4G/5G Cellular on an Android Phone
Step 1: Turn On 4G/5G Cellular on Your Android Phone and Check It Works
Check that 4G/5G cellular is working on your Android phone or tablet.
Swipe down from the top of the screen and check that Mobile data is on. You can also open Settings and go to Connections > Data usage (Samsung Galaxy) or Network & internet > SIMs (Google Pixel) and turn on Mobile data.
Step 2: Connect to Your Starlink Wi-Fi Hotspot
First, set up your Starlink with the instructions that came in the box. This includes your Starlink Wi-Fi network name and password.
On your Android phone or tablet, open Settings and go to Connections > Wi-Fi (Samsung Galaxy) or Network & internet > Internet (Google Pixel). Other Android phones use similar menus. Turn Wi-Fi on, tap your Starlink Wi-Fi network, and enter its password.
Step 3: Download and Install Speedify
Download and install Speedify. Speedify is an app that combines your Starlink with the other internet connections on your device, so your internet is faster, more reliable, and more secure.
Once running, Speedify finds your internet connections on its own and splits your traffic across them. If Starlink drops, Speedify moves your traffic to the internet connections that still work. Video calls and live streams get priority over background downloads and updates.
To see how each internet connection is doing, or to set a data limit on one, click or tap it in Speedify.
Speedify's cellular sharing adds more 4G/5G cellular: phones and computers running Speedify on the same local network share their 4G/5G cellular with each other.
