### 3/5 — Bad Upgrade (not update)

*2025-10-18, version 2.08*

One day, App not work(?) I think I’ll try updating it. I’ve enjoyed App for many years and now it stop completely(   

iPhone: iPhone 15 Pro Max
iOS: 18.7.1

Other family members still have this App and they work with no problems (?)

### 4/5 — Good app

*2021-03-07, version 2.08*

Would like it to be more maniable

### 4/5 — Good product

*2020-02-10, version 2.08*

Works a treat

### 2/5 — Might be a Scam

*2019-12-30, version 2.08*

Worked well for a long time - then the app ceased finding my home network and instead kept assessing the network speed of wireless at a university that is 20 miles from my home. I found in the end that there was simply no way of getting it to recognize my network and it stuck to the afore highlighted erroneous network. Made me worry that either my iPhone is hacked, or the app is hacked. Either way - no longer using.

### 3/5 — Free Utility

*2019-11-19, version 2.08*

Used this for a few years now- completes hundreds of tests, great to see all the history. 

It just looks a bit dated now & could do with a slight refresh. 

Had a few inconsistencies recently, most notably with the star function & readings. 

However still a good app or has been to use & consider against the other freebies.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2017-06-02, version 2.08*

It works great!

### 5/5 — Great!!

*2017-05-03, version 2.07*

Thank to this app, I've been able to prove to a major telco company that their salesman downright lied about the speed of internet I can achieve by paying a substantial amount more and switching to them as a provider. Thumbs up to you!!

### 5/5 — I find it good to check our speed

*2017-02-21, version 2.06*

We have constant problems with broadband speed and find the program a good way to check our speed 
It's also good to be able to see your history and then moan at BT because it's so poor!

### 4/5 — Straightforward

*2017-02-19, version 2.06*

Fast & simple

### 5/5 — Love it

*2016-11-23, version 2.06*

Easy to use

### 2/5 — Good, not great

*2016-11-19, version 2.06*

Too bad this updated version does not include the five star review feature, that I like so much with previous versions. Using an iPhone 6 with the latest updated software from Apple.

### 5/5 — Useful tester

*2016-11-11, version 2.06*

Excellent and clear and useful. Recommended. Using ios10.

### 5/5 — Quite useful

*2016-11-10, version 2.06*

Great when traveling

### 4/5 — Works as advertised

*2016-11-05, version 2.06*

No real problems with it...I use it mostly to check that the wifi is working.

As such, I'd like to see an option to do a very quick version of the test.  But that's only a nice-to-have.

### 5/5 — Excellent and Simple to Use

*2016-10-20, version 2.06*

This app provides a very easy way to test the speed of your internet, both uploads ands downloads.  It is very easy to use, and provides excellent documentation of the various elements of the connection.  Each test is retained in history, and is easily forwarded to your internet provider if you have any speed issues.

*2017-01-12, version 2.06*

Don't use, totally inaccurate.

*2016-10-20, version 2.06*

Probably scam

### 1/5 — Doesn't work anymore

*2016-10-15, version 2.06*

Used to be a great app, but errors every time now. I paid for the ad free version too..

### 1/5 — Doesn't Work.

*2016-10-10, version 2.06*

I can't get this to work after upgrading to iOS 10.  Good when it worked, but not so good now.

### 1/5 — Wants too much access

*2016-07-12, version 2.05*

Served its purpose, but I deleted it when it asked for access to my pictures.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2016-06-24, version 2.05*

Can't give it much of a review because all I get is a test error message.

### 1/5 — Test

*2016-06-11, version 2.03*

It does not work not even an ping!

### 1/5 — No longer saves network name

*2016-03-28, version 1.82*

I have used this app since 2014 and until recently it saved the name of the network bring used during the test.  It now shows the network name when first run, but does not save to the history file and subsequent runs show "unknown" network.  This makes trending and comparing network locations impossible.  Time to find another speed test utility.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2016-02-26, version 1.82*

Tried testing several times.  Unable to test.

### 5/5 — A Must Have App!

*2019-03-14, version 2.08*

I check my internet speeds periodically and especially when things slow up on one of my devices. My internet provider guarantees a certain speed so when it drops significantly I call them. I get great service when I tell them I'm using this app.
