Speedify 16.5: Customize the Dashboard With Cards, Plus IP Leak Protection on iOS

Speedify 16.5 Adds a Customizable Dashboard

The Speedify dashboard holds a lot: graphs for traffic, latency and packet loss, active streams, Bypass suggestions, paired devices, statistics and ISP stats. Different people watch different parts of the dashboard, and on a large screen a fixed layout leaves space unused.

The short version: Speedify 16.5, released on 1 April 2026 for Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, Linux and OpenWrt, makes the Speedify dashboard customizable. The dashboard is now made of information cards that you can drag and drop into your own order, the interface responds faster, and the layout makes better use of large screens with dynamic sizing. Speedify 16.5 also makes bonding faster, uses less of your device’s processor, improves failover, shares speed more evenly between several downloads, calls or streams running at once, adds IP Leak Protection on iOS to force WebRTC and FaceTime calls through Speedify, fixes captive portal handling on iOS, and improves stability and performance of the Performance Enhancing Proxy (PEP) on OpenWrt.

In this release:

  • A dashboard built from cards you can rearrange
  • Faster bonding, lower processor use and better failover
  • iOS: IP Leak Protection for WebRTC and FaceTime calls
  • iOS: a captive portal fix
  • OpenWrt: PEP stability and performance improvements

How to Customize the Speedify Dashboard With Cards

Each part of the dashboard is now a card: Paired Devices, Streams, Bypass, Bonding Mode, the Networks, Traffic, Latency, Loss and Local graphs, Statistics, News & Events, and Advanced ISP Stats. Pick the cards you care about and put the most useful cards at the top.

To customize the dashboard, open the ≡ menu in the top left of the Speedify dashboard and, under Preferences, open Dashboard. Use the toggle next to a card to show or hide the card. To reorder, press and hold the drag handle (the dotted grid icon on the left of a card) and drag the card up or down. Cards higher in the list appear first.

The layout follows the screen. On small screens the cards stack in a single column in your chosen order. On a tablet or desktop the dashboard switches to several columns side by side.

A limit to know: some cards appear only when the cards have data to show. Advanced ISP Stats appears only when Speedify detects a supported internet connection such as Starlink, and the Bypass card appears only when you have apps or domains set to bypass Speedify.

IP Leak Protection for WebRTC and FaceTime Calls on iOS

Speedify routes your internet traffic through Speedify servers, so websites see a Speedify IP address instead of your own. IP Leak Protection keeps the Speedify address in place even for requests that could otherwise go around Speedify and reveal your real IP address and location. On iOS, Speedify 16.5 adds IP Leak Protection that forces WebRTC and FaceTime calls through Speedify. WebRTC is the technology many browsers and apps use for voice and video calls.

The setting lives in the Privacy section of the Speedify settings. Speedify recommends keeping IP Leak Protection on. If devices on your local network, such as a Chromecast, a camera or a printer, stop working with your device, turning IP Leak Protection off may fix the problem, because apps can then send traffic around Speedify.

Faster Bonding, Lower Processor Use and Better Failover

Speedify 16.5 makes bonding faster, uses less of your device’s processor and improves failover. Failover is Speedify moving your traffic to your remaining internet connections when an internet connection drops. Speedify 16.5 also shares speed more evenly between several things running at the same time, such as a download and a video call.

Other Fixes and Changes in Speedify 16.5

  • On iOS, fixed an issue with handling captive portals, the sign-in or terms pages that hotel, airport and café Wi-Fi networks show before granting internet access.
  • On OpenWrt, stability and performance improvements with the Performance Enhancing Proxy (PEP) feature, which speeds up web pages and downloads.
