  • There needs to be options to transmit the data automatically or manually. The data is collected, but it is not clear what the user should do with the data! Needs to be clarified! The app is very efficient in collecting the data. Transmitting needs to be efficient too! Thank you.

  • This is a wonky terribly designed app. Not sure if the data is correct & how it's being used. I don't have unlimited data, so I'm uninstalling this. Wanted to help the FCC out to keep internet providers & phone companies honest. I really don't see this app doing anything. No real incentive for the user to keep this on phone. Bad design. Bad explanation of app. Uninstalling it.

  • Dropping this to two stars. The concept of fantastic but the execution is not great. The app does a great job running but then gets stuck in my notification section showing that's it's still running. I always have to force stop it.

  • Works great! I just wish they didn't remove the feature that put your tests on a map. It was very interesting to see the map and how data speeds varied by location, using your own data. Please bring that back!

  • New update is worse then original. My internet provider doesn't consistently provide the speed and quality, and previous version app had charts, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly averages. This new update is harder to use and no data of averages. Deleting.

  • Runs tests all the time, which is nice to keep my cell phone company in check. With the last update though, it keeps a notification saying it's running tests. It never goes away, even after it finishes a test. I have to restart my phone in order to get it to clear the notification.
