### 4/5 — Fast app but limited info

*2023-05-03, version 1.5.3*

Hi the speed test was faster than Ookla but it only listed the up and download speeds. No network info.

### 4/5 — Does what it says.

*2023-02-15, version 1.5.3*

Works well enough and can’t really do much more than it says.

### 4/5 — Quick and effective

*2022-09-13, version 1.5.3*

Great app with a simplistic interface and ease of use.

### 4/5 — Speedtest by My Broadband

*2021-05-27, version 1.5.0*

Seems to be a more true reflection of realtime download/upload speeds (compared to the other speedtest apps I’ve used regularly; they seem quite a bit more optimistic.)

### 5/5 — David

*2021-02-02, version 1.5.0*

Awesome highly recommend

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2021-02-02, version 1.5.0*

Works like a charm

### 5/5 — Speedtest

*2020-12-10, version 1.5.0*

Useful app for tracking supplier speeds and changes over time. Thanks MyBB.

### 5/5 — Best go-to app for speed test

This app is quick, accurate and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Solid Application

*2020-09-10, version 1.5.0*

Does exactly what it is supposed to do :) Does it well.

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2020-06-04, version 1.5.0*

Always accurate tests. My go-to app whenever I need to know the download speed of whichever network I’m on. Works great.

### 5/5 — Best App to test your network speed

*2020-01-20, version 1.5.0*

I find the app easy to use with no annoying adverts so it is the best app out there to test your network speed.

### 5/5 — Fastest working app

*2020-01-17, version 1.5.0*

This app gives you the information you need in a great amount of time.. no ads. Great! 😁

### 5/5 — Perfect for local tests

*2020-01-15, version 1.5.0*

Works perfectly and shows a history of different tests which is extremely useful for tracking fluctuations. Works great for mobile data and wifi.

### 5/5 — Reliable small app

*2020-01-14, version 1.5.0*

Reliable and easy to check your download speed and being able to see past runs.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2023-04-06, version 1.5.3*

This app keeps crashing

### 1/5 — Rating Your ISP

*2019-03-12, version 1.5.0*

Apparently it’s suppose to allow me to rate my internet service providers but it doesn’t at all

### 1/5 — App results flawed

*2018-04-15, version 1.4.0*

The App results are flawed on both iPhone and iPad. Doing the test only seconds apart from same device using the App and the web site (through Safari) shows the website test always being significantly faster with regards to latency and download.

### 1/5 — Slow featureless and outdated

*2018-02-04, version 1.4.0*

Feels like the great grandfather of Ookla Speedtest 
The only thing less imaginative and sloppier then this app is the mybroadband writing.

### 1/5 — No point

*2017-07-04, version 1.1.0*

What's the point of only having two locations? At the very least add a U.K. and US test. 
Just as useless as the website speed test and offers nothing over any other stock standard speed testing app.

### 2/5 — Has this been abandoned

*2024-12-15, version 1.5.3*

I can't say there is anything specifically wrong with app, but that in 2 years it has never had or needed an update, gives the impression that the app has been abandoned, and for that reason question the security and integrity

### 2/5 — Fails at its core function

*2021-04-08, version 1.5.0*

Results are wildly inconsistent with 150Mbps difference between tests run within seconds of each other.

### 3/5 — Dark app icon missing

*2025-12-13, version 1.5.3*

Please support dark mode

### 3/5 — Reliable

*2021-11-08, version 1.5.1*

Useful.

### 3/5 — Inconsistent speedtest results with iOS app

*2017-10-16, version 1.2.0*

Getting inconsistent speed results with app. Live website for example gives 8mb down and straight away use app 4mb result. Back to live website and result 8mb again. Somehow not adding up. Please investigate.

### 5/5 — Highly Recommended

*2023-02-28, version 1.5.3*

Only app I use to check connection speeds. Highly recommended:)

### 5/5 — Nice…

*2023-02-13, version 1.5.3*

Works really well accurate results… clean interface, no ads and result history

### 5/5 — High quality speed test app

*2022-11-05, version 1.5.3*

Loads quickly, results are accurate, and the past results in map view is super nice. Great work MyBroadBand.

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2022-02-21, version 1.5.2*

A great app to use, no hiccups.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2021-11-09, version 1.5.1*

It’s quick, easy and gives accurate results.

### 5/5 — Good and efficient

*2021-11-08, version 1.5.1*

Just what we need👍

### 5/5 — 👌

*2021-07-03, version 1.5.0*

Great app , no ads

### 5/5 — Easy and add free

*2021-05-25, version 1.5.0*

Nice clean interface and it does exactly what it should. I'm assuming this is used when analysis and rating service providers and it's great to be able to contribute. I see the app has the ability to limit data use. On my uncapped connection at home, I really don't mind the app using any amount of data. With the continued data theft of very expensive data from our cell phone networks and taking into account that 5G is starting to become available, it would be great if the app limited data use on a cellular connection automatically.

### 5/5 — Best tester for your network speeds locally

*2021-05-17, version 1.5.0*

Used quite a bit of apps to test the network speed and MyBroadband is by far the best. bonus for not having annoying ads like other apps

### 5/5 — Easy and informative.

*2021-02-07, version 1.5.0*

The app was super simple and easy to use, showing the details of your network. It also holds records for previous speed tests so you can compare different days and times.
