What Are the Benefits when You Combine Internet Connections on iPhone?

Most people are OK with their iPhones automatically switching between Wi-Fi and cellular data, as needed. But there’s a problem: this switching takes time, at least a few seconds.

So what can happen during those seconds, you ask? Here are some examples:

  • you may lose an important idea during your video calls
  • you may be required to log in again to a particular platform or work VPN you’re using, because the IP address of your device has changed with the switch. This means additional time.
  • you may be booted from the online game you’re playing
  • you may lose your unsaved work in the cloud

… and the list can go on.

By combining Internet connections on your iPhone, you get more reliable connectivity. Your session will be consistent – meaning that your IP will not change if Wi-Fi should fail, because you’ll still be connected to cellular data. That saves a lot of time and hassles.

Faster Internet is also a benefit when you combine Internet connections on iPhone. You can create a “super-pipe” from your Wi-Fi + cellular data connections.

This will help with bandwidth-intensive apps like live streaming, video calls, online gaming, remote learning, etc.

All of this (and more!) is possible with the Speedify channel bonding app.

Step by Step Guide to Combine Internet Connections on iPhone Using Speedify

Here’s what you have to do to use both Wi-Fi and cellular data simultaneously on your iPhone:

  1. Verify that your cellular data connection is on and working. Go to Settings > Cellular and flip he switch to on.
  2. Connect to Wi-Fi. Verify that your Wi-Fi is enabled on your iPhone or iPad and connected to a network.

    Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and flip the switch to on. You can then select a network from the list that appears. Keep in mind, private networks may require you to enter a password before connecting.
