Description

From the listing uploaded by “catappult”.

Try our NEW Connectivity Assistant feature using the “Connectivity Test” button! Opensignal is a free to use, advert free mobile connectivity and network signal speed test app. Connectivity Test & Assistant Experiencing a network issue? Not sure what to do? Try running the new Connectivity Test. If an issue is discovered, the Connectivity Assistant will give you helpful tips on how to address the problem. Speed test for mobile and Wifi internet Opensignal speed tests measure your mobile connectivity and signal strength. Opensignal runs a 5 second download test, 5 second upload test and a ping test to provide a consistently accurate measurement of the internet speed you will likely experience. The speed test runs on common internet CDN servers. The internet speed result is calculated with the middle range of samples. Video playback test Slow video load time? Video buffering? More time waiting than watching? Opensignal’s video test plays a 15 sec video snippet to test and log load time, buffering, and playback speed issues in real-time to show you exactly what to expect with HD and SD videos on your network. Connectivity and speed test coverage map Always know where to find the best coverage and fastest speeds with Opensignal’s network coverage map. The map shows signal strength down to street level using speed test and signal data from local users. With network stats on local network operators, you can check coverage ahead of a trip, check the internet and download strength in remote areas, compare your network to other providers in the area, arrange the best local SIM. Cell tower compass The cell tower compass allows you to see which direction the closest or strongest signal is coming from, enabling you to more accurately use broadband and signal boosting technology. Note: The cell tower compass uses aggregate data and accuracy issues can occur in certain areas. We’re striving to improve this feature and thank you for your patience. Connection availability stats Opensignal records the time you’ve spent on 3G, 4G, 5G, WiFi or had no signal at all. This allows you to see where you are getting the service you’re paying for from your network provider.
