### 2/5 — Perfekt leider nicht auf AppleTv

*2025-11-03*

Hallo die App ist super einfach zu bedienen und das UI ist perfekt. Auf dem iPhone gibt es die Möglichkeit „Customize Arguments“ wo man dann auch —udp testen kann um Packet loss zu finden. Die Option fehlt leider auf dem Apple TV. Deshalb keine volle Punktzahl. Bitte asap auf Apple TV. Danke

### 4/5 — tcp -M not work...

*2022-09-24*

何とか対応して頂けるとありがたいです！
任意コマンドが使用出来るのは非常に有能ですね。

### 4/5 — please upgrade to latest iperf

*2022-09-19*

please upgrade to iperf 3.11 and add more option features.

### 2/5 — No graph

*2020-07-08*

Icon implies that this app creates a graph of the iPerf output, but this app does not do that. Just text based.

### 4/5 — New update

*2019-05-30*

But doesn’t give you the server IP address and you have to look it up another app. It is not like asking for service discovery.

### 5/5 — iOS 12.2, iperf3 on Linux, everything’s perfect

*2019-05-06*

Ran some benchmarks on my local network just fine

### 5/5 — Works perfectly

*2019-03-02*

I installed the iperf3 on centos 7 vm.  From there I use it to regularly test from within my home wifi lan, between my lab servers/IT gear etc.  it’s been a very useful tool to use from my phone

I’m on the latest iOS version, which is currently 12.1.4.  The app has worked perfectly from day one.  No bugs or issues to complain or report.  

Also nice that you can add custom commands to it too.

### 1/5 — Crashes my IPhone XS Max every time!

*2018-12-16*

Crashes my iPhone XS Max every time I try to use the application! Waste of money!

### 1/5 — 不好用！

*2018-11-26*

iso12 根本没法使用 无论是seever还是client 都没法使用！

### 1/5 — Crashes on client runs

*2018-11-20*

Consistently crashes when running as client.

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2025-09-05*

Никуда не коннектится

### 1/5 — Halbfertig

*2025-02-03*

Die Idee ist gut, der Programmierer hat aber nach der ersten Integration aufgehört.

### 1/5 — For IPhone 15 Iperf tool is not working

*2024-08-06*

Tried the tool with IPhone-15 where not able to run any TCP/ UDP traffic’s.
With Iphone14 this issue is not there.
App need to be updated for compatibility with Iphone15 as well immediately

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. Useless.

*2020-12-22*

Paid for it, downloaded it. 

Nothing. Refused to work on latest fully up-to-date iPad.

### 1/5 — Does not work as expected

*2020-11-20*

Cannot connect to the FRITZ!Box iPerf service. Also it is iPerf3 and not iPerf.

### 1/5 — Often crashes on my iPhone XS Max

*2019-04-08*

Very buggy crashes 50% of the time. Will claim a refund

### 1/5 — 垃圾

垃圾，根本用不了。要求退钱

### 1/5 — 垃圾

Zero stars.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Всё работает.

*2025-11-14*

В серверном режиме точно работает, в клиенте не проверял.

### 5/5 — Works great

*2025-07-09*

I was suspicious because the last updated is 2 years ago and all the (very old!) negative ratings. But I gave it a try and didn’t nit regret. Works great with iOS 18.5

Also this is the only app I found for iPhone which is able to start iPerf in server mode.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2024-11-01*

Works as both server and client!

### 5/5 — 终于找到可以在iOS用命令行的了

*2022-07-27*

其它的客户端虽然不要钱UI还漂亮点，但是没有命令行很多功能用不了，不如这个收费的。

### 5/5 — Great tool

*2022-06-19*

Works very well and supports custom clients options. 

Also works ok Apple TV!

### 5/5 — Full command line interface

*2022-02-26*

This iperf app stands out as it has a full command line interface so you can get all iperf details. Most other apps I’ve seen only show summary info

### 5/5 — It’s iperf3

*2021-01-25*

After changing the server to iperf3, everything works fine!
Nice product!!!

### 5/5 — True command based

*2020-07-29*

This is superior to other iPerf 3 tools because this gives a granular control of iPerf command arguments I.e. for those who wants to do various/more precise testing. 

I also like the fact this tool allows iOS device to be server mode.

One suggestion/feature request I have is to make a one option/UI change such that for those who likes to do just quick most basic upload or download test with # of parallel streams, have easy user selectable interface. This way the app covers the need of basic user and also advanced users.

### 5/5 — 国区surge什么时候上架

*2019-09-27*

想买

### 5/5 — Works for now

*2019-05-31*

Seems fun.
