Speedtest by Ookla 4+

Loved this app but latest Speedtest update when signing into my account I removed all my Speedtests

I’ve loved this app over the past few years and I saw the latest Speedtest app update and I thought that it would be a great idea to update and sign in to my account to sync all of my speedtests but nooo that was a horrible idea. Once updating the app, and signing in, all of my Speedtest were gone, over two years worth of speedtests taken on Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T and Wi-Fi, but for some reason all my video tests are still there. I really need your help to re-add all my speed tests back to the app, it would mean a lot if you could reply to this, I loved Speedtest so much but now I feel like it’s a little pointless if all of my speed tests are now gone. Maybe I should’ve created a new account? Your account creation process has been confusing and buggy so maybe it’s just a glitch? Hopefully the next app update might fix this issue, I can’t be the only one having this issue, there should also be an option to sync your speed tests with iCloud like Shazam and allow us to import our CSV files that we exported prior to our tests disappearing.

Sorry for the trouble! This issue should now be fixed in the most recent update, 5.0.2. Sorry again, and thanks for using Speedtest!

Ookla Makes the Best Speedtest App Available

Wow, has this app come a long way. Just realized the last time I left a review I was begging for an iPad version, and I can’t even think of what year that was because I’ve used the iPad app for so long. The app is so well designed and never ever has it crashed on me. There’s so many servers to test from, but you can also choose a favorite to default to for testing. I’ve been able to use this app for more than claiming bragging rights about the network speeds I get on 5G and my Home WiFi. It’s just so reliable and truly useful. On trips I can quickly get a read on whether a backup of my photos is going to take forever and I should just wait to get to the airport, find the best spot to install my security cameras, oh and there’s quite a bit of free VPN usage included. It’s impossible to overstate how useful this Speedtest app is. There’s even a dark mode that I have just kept on and really the team behind this app is really thoughtful for bothering to carry support for nuance features like that. There’s even a way to skip the almost non-existent ads by paying, which I haven’t done but I appreciate the option.

New Tools Are Great, But ...

The latest update introducing separate “multi” and “single” connections testing was a dandy. Just a great idea that provides very, very useful information in terms of gauging in-the-moment download/upload bandwidth capacity. On top of that, the app continues to run as reliably and smoothly as ever.

All that being said, however, I’ve found the “Notes” option for results less and less useful because of the inability to filter test results so that those with notes can be viewed separately. Scrolling through dozens and dozens of test results to find those with tagged with note icons so that they can be analyzed and cross-referenced while tracking long term connectivity performance is far too cumbersome and time-consuming. Call it nitpicking, but it voids the usefulness of the “Notes” feature as an analytical tool. With a simple filter option, though, that issue vanishes. If/when that happens, I’ll gladly bump my rating up to five stars and send due praise in an updated review.
