### 3/5 — To many scam style adds

*2025-09-09, version 1.5*

Every time you open the app, there’s an ad pretending to be your iPhone settings app saying that you visited a compromised website or something like that to cheat you into buying some stupid app or something like that by making click a button that supposedly protects your phone but actually makes you get this stupid app. Other than that it is fine.

### 3/5 — iPhone 12pro

*2024-05-30, version 1.5*

It’s not a iPhone 6 lol

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No

*2023-10-04, version 1.5*

This app claims to take away ads. If you write a review this is my second review and there are still ads. Cannot recommend this app.

### 1/5 — What does this app really do?

*2023-07-05, version 1.5*

It just gives me numbers 891 at the end of test. What does the numbers mean. My phone has 6 cores and it doesn’t tell me how much processor is used or in use and how many gigahertz or megahertz it’s using. The ads are so ridiculous. Every 2 seconds ads pop up. Then on my experience it had a endless loop of ads. Close that ad and bam not even 1 millisecond another ad and close that one bam another one. This app is totally useless!

### 1/5 — Not Very Useful

*2021-10-03, version 1.5*

This app is not too helpful.  Gives results for what I don’t know really.  Also, it detects my IPhone SX Max as an IPhone 6.  So if that’s wrong than I’m skeptical about the other things it reads off the phone (even if it was clear on what the readings
Were for)

### 1/5 — Inaccurate, Don’t bother

*2020-04-25, version 1.5*

what a joke lists my phone as an iPhone 6 lol 😝 when its really an iPhone XR. Processor rating way off

### 1/5 — Not good

*2020-04-14, version 1.5*

Test this in my IPHONE 10 and it show it as an IPHONE 6

### 1/5 — Im not sure  what it actually does?

*2019-10-23, version 1.5*

Im not sure  what it actually does, it looks cool but says Right OS but wrong phone, I have iphone X it read i6.....?

### 1/5 — Nice to look at

*2019-06-29, version 1.5*

I’m not sure this does anything useful that I can use to fix “something.” I’ve read all the reviews and still I got nothing. There is no help or any information that will help you interpret the tests or the results with the numbers it derived from ?/? = ?. I’m glad they only want to steal from you is $0.99. Maybe I should’ve gone for it, but I have so many $0.99 apps it isn’t funny. You would think I hat if keep buying apps at $0.99 that the results would be different.

### 1/5 — Pretty much unusable

*2018-05-29, version 1.5*

I was excited to give this app a try.  After downloading and opening it, there were endless pop up advertisements which wouldn't allow me to proceed without signing up for services like Audible, etc.  

I was never able to use the app as I was overwhelmed with ads.

Just deleted it.

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2018-03-11, version 1.4*

App crashes when you try to launch it. Installed app and uninstalled app within 5 mins.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2018-02-15, version 1.4*

App doesn’t work

### 5/5 — Old ui but works perfectly fine and gets your data speeds up!

*2024-05-14, version 1.5*

I’ve had countless apps all handy that all seem to of disappeared from the AppStore so finding an oldie that works well is always a good result and this is one such app. Logs my speeds on all bands 3-5G 

Thanks for keeping it up and keeping it simple. The others tried getting to clever imo resulting in their demise. Rootmetrics etc this does what is says it’ll do…sold! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2021-08-06, version 1.5*
