Very helpful app, I didn't know how much I truly needed it until I had it! Definitely worth the purchase!

Totally worth it! This app is a game changer. I can instantly see everything about my USB devices right from the menu bar.

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2025-06-27, version 25.0*

This app is great, it does exactly what it says it’s going to, and does it really well. It sits in the menu bar and provides the info as soon as any USB is plugged in. Doesn’t get in the way, and love that no subscription is required. Totally worth it

### 1/5 — Unfortunately not working - here

*2025-07-25*

I downloaded the program and installed it.
It is listed in my programs.
However when I double click on it nothing happens.

**Developer response:** Thanks for trying out our app. I am sorry for the confusion!

Our app lives in your menu bar at the very top of the screen, so it won't open a separate window when you click it. Please look for our icon up there, near your Wi-Fi and clock icons.

Sometimes, if you have too many icons, the menu bar runs out of room. You might need to hide a few other items or use a free app like "Hidden Bar" to manage them.

Hope that helps you find it! Contact support at "dan@usbconnectioninformation.com" if you're still stuck.

### 2/5 — Kind of a scam

*2025-10-10, version 26.0*

You can find the same info in the system report. They also use the dropdown to link to an amazon affiliate link.

### 3/5 — Promising but needs refinement

*2025-07-24*

I like the concept, shows all my current cable connections, however they all look greyed out, very difficult to read any of the information. No way of exporting the information to notes to act upon them.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! To fix the readability issue, you can enable "Increase Contrast Mode" in the "Menu Details" section. I appreciate the suggestion for an export feature and will consider it for a future update.

### 4/5 — why not a window?

*2026-04-04, version 26.26*

Does a great job at displaying all your devices’ connection speeds, but crams it all into a dropdown menu for some reason. This would be a much better fit for display in a window.

### 4/5 — Works fine but …

*2025-07-22*

… at MacBook Pro 14“ M4 the output is shown as „unknown device“. Rest of the devices are fine …

**Developer response:** Thanks for the report! I am constantly adding new hardware to our database. Support for the MacBook Pro 14" M4 was included in a recent update. Please make sure your app is updated to the latest version from the App Store to correctly identify the device. If the issue persists after updating, please do not hesitate to contact support.

### 5/5 — Works as described

*2026-07-08, version 26.1*

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.

### 5/5 — 👍👍👍

*2026-07-01, version 26.0*

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

### 5/5 — Very Handy!

*2026-04-28, version 26.29*

Do you have a bunch of USB-C power bricks lying around, and you’re not sure which ones will supply enough power to quick charge your MBP? This is the app. Sure, you can look in system information every time you plug something in, but this is faster.

### 5/5 — Great :)

*2026-04-04, version 26.26*

Very useful. Sometimes when I connect my iPhone 16 pro max and my Samsung T9 SSD it only shows the slow speed for one of them like 480 so I need to verify using this app and make sure they both show 10 for the speed which is a fast USB 3 speed so if it’s not i just disconnect and reconnect.   I use that especially with the great local backup program that backs up the iPhone to the mac called iMazing.  It’s like Time Machine for the iPhone. it can do so much.

### 5/5 — Perfect for finding slow drives

*2026-03-16*

It took a few apps before I found the right one and I’m pretty happy with this one.
Task bar drop down gives the full list of connected volumes and the speed they are connected at. This helps troubleshoot why copying files across different volumes can vary so much (480mbps vs 5gbps). Thankyou.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the great review! I am glad the app is helping you easily spot those 480 Mbps bottlenecks among your connected volumes. I really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and for choosing this as the best USB app!

### 5/5 — FINALLY!  All the USBC Power Delivery info I’ve wanted!

*2026-03-16, version 26.22*

So many times I’ve just wanted to know what Voltage and Amperage the charger I’m connected to is capable of.  Normally I’d have to remember to have my USBC PD Multimeter with me.  THANK YOU SO MUCH.  You are an International Treasure.

### 5/5 — Incredibly useful

*2026-03-16*

Finally I can know the charging speed of my cable without needed a tester. Love the app

**Developer response:** I am glad to hear the app is saving you from having to dig out a hardware tester. Thank you for the wonderful review!

### 5/5 — Perfect utility

*2025-12-09, version 26.4*

I can finally see what my cables and chargers are actually doing. Fast updates, clear info, and lightweight. Totally worth it!

### 5/5 — Works perfectly fine

*2025-11-24*

No idea what these other people’s issues are, but this app works flawlessly.

**Developer response:** I'm really glad you're finding the app useful. Feedback like this keeps me motivated. If you ever do have a feature request or question, please do not hesitate to reach out!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2025-08-28, version 25.11*

This app is so simple to use, I love it. I would love to see an option to let it fallback to the icon when no power source is connected, rather than having text saying “Connected/Not Connected” as I’d love to see it only for wattage when connected.
