Outstanding App & Developer Support!

Was having a charging issue on my MacBook Pro M5. Installed this app and noticed that “live power” was stuck at 6.6W. Thought it might just be this app, so I reached out to support on a Saturday afternoon and heard back in less than 15 mins! We chatted back and forth and Dan gave me some troubleshooting advice that not only resolved the charging rate issue, but confirmed that the app was right all along! Definitely worth the purchase, I’m glad I went for the whole suite :)

Pity about the popups

Great app but I do not tolerate apps that interrupt my work to ask me to rate them. Please do not.

Response from developer

Thanks for the kind words, and fair point. The rating request is Apple's standard system prompt, and macOS shows it at most three times a year. If you'd rather never see it from any app, you can turn it off in System Settings, App Store, the In-App Ratings & Reviews. I'll also look at asking less often. Thanks for taking the time to write this.

Full-featured, accurate, useful!

Even though the UI is a bit basic, this is a super useful and surprisingly full-featured app. It can easily replace $10 worth of HW, and now I don’t need any extra devices. Really helpful in debugging why something might be charging slowly or transferring slowly. I particularly like the “notify me if a cable is limiting transfer speed” feature. So cool!

Thanks for taking the time to review! If you haven't gotten the chance yet, try out the mobile app too. If you need anything or have any recommendations, please feel free to reach out. I love to drive the app's direction with feedback from customers.

Works as described

Now I can test if my attached storage is working at USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 speeds. Thanks! I also like the image export option.

👍👍👍

I had no idea this was possible on the iPhone! Love this app, easy to use. Really cool to be able to run USB tests on iPhone. Worth the download
