User reviews

Does this work anymore?

I have had this app about 6 months and in the beginning it worked great but now it tells me to please try again continuously. Could be my internet is really that bad! I have tested in good internet areas and get the same reply. Have deleted/reloaded app a couple of times.

Inaccurate

Definitely is under reporting speed of my internet connection. Upload seems accurate, but download is not even close.

Worked for me

Worked for me! It changes slightly depending on what part of the house I’m in and how far I am from my WiFi setup, which makes sense to me.

Runs Correctly

I read a few reviews expressing concern about the app’s accuracy. I compared it against two other speed tests and both displayed slower results within .26-.32 mbps. While there may be some margin of error, I would still recommend using this app.

About %15 too low

Compared to Speedtest.net this app reads about %15-%30 lower

18.4 Mbps down, 1.78 up: Speedtest.net
14.8 Mbps down, 1.16 up: This app

Cannot say who is actually more accurate
Paying for 20/1.7 Mbps with dual DSL line in rural Maine
