Speed Test SpeedSmart Internet 4+

Living in a rural community in Montana, we have no fiber optics capabilities. Our link to the outside world through the web is done primarily by landlines dedicated originally for telephones. Also, there is only one ISP provider here; proprietary. While it’s much cheaper than a satellite service, it’s also extremely slow. Following a recent outage, my smart tv was all but incapacitated after the internet was restored. My son advised me to establish a personal hotspot. Ha also told me to download the the “SpeedSmart” app and check the speed of Verizon’s LTE versus that of our wi-fi. SpeedSmart showed very little difference in the two “snail-speed” options. Looks like I’m plunging into the expensive world of Satellite internet. What have I got to loose-except money. Thanks SpeedSmart! It’s awesome to check my own speeds instead of wading through countless menu options trying to speak with an actual human being who works for our ISP provider! I’d strongly recommend this app. I plan to use it frequently to checkup on whatever ISP provider we settle with.

Speedtest — all for the low low cost of nothing, is the reason I could say for certain, while being armed with objective and reliable data, that my ISP, Centurylink in the Phoenix, Arizona market specifically, is so woefully underperforming on “high speed” for their overcharged customers that it should be criminal. For all I know if enough people raised hell about their service, it might come to light that what they’re doing is criminal. I’m in a very unfortunate market of AZ east of Phoenix where cable modem service is NOT available for some confounding, maddening reason. But for 6 months plus now I’ve been testing my ISP’s performance and they’re going to hear from me at least. I’ve literally been at an average download speed of less than 6-7 mbps, with uploads in the 2’s at best! That’s RIDICULOUS! Nobody in the country is suffering these speeds unless they’re still somehow on dialup. This must get fixed ASAP! Thanks Speedtest!

First, I have never written a review on an app or even thought an app deserved a review. However, I have literally relied on this app for years to diagnose connectivity issues early on, and I have tried a few others along the way.
With the latest face lift I will say that the app looks better than it ever has. But more importantly, it just does what it says it does. Simply test your connection speed, whether 3g, 4g, now 5g, and as always WiFi. Open the app and test speed. Look back at all previous speed tests you’ve taken.
You can also export your test history if needed.
Because this app is so perfect, after 4 years using it, I very recently upgraded to the advertisement free version to show my support. Great app. Transparent and honest app makers. And an actual ad free, ad free version available on all my iOS devices.
Just wish I could extend the ad free version across all my other devices as well somehow.
Other than that, thanks guys for an amazing app. I will continue to use your service as long as it is available to me.
Highly recommend this app to anyone in the market for a simple speed test app. Download it ASAP!
