Speedtest by Ookla App Reviews

I use the app all the time to check the speed of my Internet if the speed is throttle down I call optimum and then usually right after the phone call its back up

Always accurate and helpful. Definitely the best.

I use it regularly and it has help me to diagnose issues and help my provider honest. Great App.

Such a small app, but so useful! Make sure your internet speeds are as fast as you are paying for.

Simple to use. Works perfectly.

When I upgraded to iPadPeo 9.7, speedtest got stuck in a "waiting" mode. I cant get it to continue loading, and cant delete it hitting the X when the icon is shaking does nothing. Very Frustrated.

Lately it takes two tries before Speedtest readings show up in the results listing. I didnt notice and lost a week or so of results.

Love the app, been using it for years. I really wish that when logged in, a user could create a note to attach to that result for reference later.

Very useful tool in holding cable company accountable for their speed claims. Thank you.

Our router works in both the 2.4 Ghz and 5Ghz ranges. With over 200 units in our building, the 2.4 Ghz range essentially gets crowded and has interference (Ive forgotten the technical name for it) causing the effective Mbps rate to slow. With Speedtest, Ive verified that the 5Ghz band is effectively twice as fast as the 2.4.

I use it to test places for dead zones.

I have used this app for years. It is the best app to test your internet speed there is!

It does almost everything you can do on their website. But you cant log into your account and save your stats.

I cant think of a single flaw with this app. The best way to test connections I know. Ive used them for years.

First let me say I love the speed test and have been using it for a long time. After the last app update or the last Apple iPad update (not sure which), the test will no longer show or store test results. I have tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling but get the same results. Only because of this and the fact support is minimal to none I dropped my rating down to 3 stars.

Great program. My son n law swears by it for testing speed of Internet Thanks

Its some kind of fantastic software but it will be much more awesome if it will troubleshoot network or improve wifi/data connection

This one is the gold standard. The best. The only one. Even Time Warner uses it as the engine for the speed test on their website. Having it as an app is better as it saves the results as a list of all the days, times, and Types of connections. The only suggestions I would make would be to be able to add a note to each record. For instance, I would want to add a note as to where in my apartment I did the test. Also I would want to export all the results as a tabbed delimited file to merge in a spreadsheet. I can currently "share" each test as an email. But its not all of them at once. Perhaps Ookla would make this a paid upgrade version. These suggestions are luxury features. They dont take away from my 5 stars.

Speedtest.net is my go-to broadband test app! Its the best one up there That Ive discovered. AAAAA+++++

The only provider in my building is Spectrum Charter, in Fort Worth TX, who claims that my download speed is 60mbs. I measure it with your App almost everyday at different times. Only once in the evening during the last six months it measured 62Mbps and another time 52, but the usual reading is between 15 and 20 Mbps, more or less. Right now, it was 12.
