Wi-Fi feels slow, but you cannot tell why. Denpa measures what is actually happening, so you can see which side the problem is on. Denpa measures response time, packet loss, download and upload speed, and DNS lookup, and splits your connection into two segments. ■ Two segments, measured separately ・Your device → the first device that responds (your router, or the carrier gateway on a cellular connection) ・The first device → the internet Video stalls. Pages do not open. Experience alone does not tell you whether the cause is inside your home or beyond it. Measuring the two segments separately narrows it down. ■ What it measures ・Response time ・Jitter ・Packet loss ・DNS lookup time ・Download and upload speed (upload requires a server that supports it) ■ It measures only when you tap Nothing is measured until you tap Start diagnostics. There is no background monitoring. ■ Findings come with what to do Issues are listed as Error, Warning, or Information, with why they were flagged and what you can try. ■ Measure how a web page loads Your line is fast, but one page still feels slow. Enter a URL and Denpa loads that page the way a browser does, then reports the load time, the amount transferred, and the speed over that period. The cache is emptied before every run, so measuring the same page twice does not change the conditions. The page stays on screen, and tapping a link in it measures that URL. ■ Save a location, watch it change Name a location and save the result. History shows a chart and a list for each location, and compares the averages. ■ What this app cannot do ・It cannot change your router settings. It narrows down the cause. ・It cannot measure other devices. Everything shown is seen from this iPhone. ・It cannot show signal strength (the bars). Only apps individually approved by Apple can read it. ・It does not make your connection faster. It is a tool for measuring and narrowing down. ■ Privacy ・Results, location names, and notes stay on your device. ・Nothing is sent to the developer or to a third party. There is no analytics, advertising, or tracking. ・Location is never recorded or sent. It is used only to show the name of the Wi-Fi network (SSID), because iOS requires location permission to read it. ・Measuring uses real network traffic. The speed test connects to Cloudflare by default, and you can change the server in Settings. The full list of destinations is in the privacy policy. ■ Requirements iOS 18.0 or later / iPhone, portrait only / Japanese and English Free. No in-app purchases, no ads, no account.

About

音響測定アプリ

Features
Read full description

Measure and analyze the acoustic characteristics of your speakers and room using just your iPhone or iPad. The app supports measurements using AirPlay-compatible speakers, Bluetooth A2DP speakers ,your device’s built-in speakers, and externally connected wired speakers. Sync markers track the timing relationship between playback and recording, correcting time drift when necessary. After verifying measurement quality, you can inspect frequency response, impulse response, and more. Use your results to optimize speaker placement and equalizer settings, or compile prompts, charts, and numerical data packs to consult with your preferred AI assistant. ■ Key Features 【1. Acoustic Measurement】 • Measures speaker and room response using Exponential Sine Sweep (ESS) signals. • Assesses measurement quality through sync markers, clock drift verification, and automated clipping and ambient noise checks. • Supports external USB measurement microphones and compatible calibration files. 【2. Frequency Response & Acoustic Graphs】 • Displays frequency response in relative dB, with selectable 1/3, 1/6, and 1/12 octave smoothing. • Visualizes minimum phase characteristics and measured group delay. • View graphs in full screen and inspect specific frequencies and levels with an interactive cursor. 【3. Spectrogram】 • Displays a color heatmap showing how sound decays over time across frequencies. • Switch display time ranges to evaluate acoustic decay trends from low to high frequencies. 【4. Decay Analysis & Multi-Position PEQ】 • Calculates frequency-dependent decay times (T20 / T30). • Identifies common resonance peaks across multiple measurement positions to generate parametric EQ (PEQ) filter recommendations. • Customize target curve slopes, number of recommended bands, and maximum boost limits. 【5. Stereo L/R Speaker Comparison】 • Compares left and right frequency responses and volume levels to evaluate channel balance across frequency bands. • Analyzes the Energy-Time Curve (ETC) to display arrival times and relative levels of early reflections compared to direct sound, helping identify reflective surfaces. • Generates independent PEQ recommendations for each channel and exports comparison results as a shareable graphic. 【6. Measurement Records & Export】 • Saves measurement records, recorded WAV files, and impulse responses locally on your device. • Manage records easily with multi-selection and batch deletion. • Export measurement results and PEQ settings in image, JSON, and CSV formats. 【7. AI Acoustic Consultation Pack】 • Generates tailored prompts based on your acoustic goals, such as "Bass Management," "Placement & Reflections," "L/R Balance," or "PEQ." • Selects and compiles charts and numerical data packs—including frequency response, ETC, minimum phase, group delay, and spectrograms—directly from your measurement records. • Review and edit prompts before sharing. Data packs can be shared together, with redundant files automatically omitted during batch export. • AI responses are suggestions, not direct measurement data. Always re-measure under identical conditions to verify any adjustments. ■ Privacy All measurements, analyses, and consultation packs are processed entirely on-device. The app never automatically transmits measurement data to external AI services. When sharing materials to external services, you review the contents and share them manually via the standard iOS Share Sheet. The microphone is accessed strictly during user-initiated measurements and sound level checks—it never records continuously in the background. ■ Measurement Tips • Frequency response is displayed in relative dB and does not indicate absolute sound pressure level (dB SPL). • Perform measurements in as quiet an environment as possible. • When using AirPlay, ensure that both your device and playback hardware are connected to a stable Wi-Fi network.

Verdict

The call

Denpa Network Check and 音響測定アプリ are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters — price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
