AnyBridge brings professional-grade SSH tunneling into a refined, fluid experience. Modular dashboard: Arrange and resize cards freely to monitor what matters—real-time speed, latency, connection status—all at a glance. Granular configuration: Supports multiple tunneling modes—from simple direct connections to secure TLS encryption and flexible HTTP payloads. A built-in visual editor makes complex setup easier than ever. High-performance core: A network engine built for speed and reliability, with intelligent reconnection that lets you switch profiles without dropping your connection—all while preserving energy efficiency. End-to-end encrypted sharing: Share profiles via links, QR codes, or files—with support for expiry dates, device binding, and other fine-grained restrictions. Deep system integration: From on-demand automation rules to full IPv4/IPv6 support; from secure DNS via DoH/DoT to seamless iCloud sync across your Apple devices—every detail is built-in, seamlessly. We do not collect your personal data or activity logs. We do not provide tunnel configurations; all profiles must be added manually. Your data is encrypted on-device, and only you hold the keys.
