App Exactly As Described.

Works exactly as described WITHOUT any ads or prompts. Thank you for this app it works well on my Mac. I was after a decent Wi Fi ongoing speed meter and it does this well and much more . You are prompted to create an account but it seems to work well without one. Thank you very much.

Great on computer

On IOS and Android good for monitoring your computer if always on. However, not very good on your phones

Неплохое приложение

Требует небольшого привыкания после SpeedTest, в общем и целом работает хорошо, но два момента, первое не понятно на каком сервере тестируется, второе лично у меня не получается аккаунт создать, вероятно по этой же причине тест скорости тоже не запускается

Не понятно что измеряет

Но точно не скорость соединения….
