So you can check the speed of your Internet from your mobile
Do you want to know why it takes so long to download that photo that was sent to you by WhatsApp even while connected to WiFi of home? Or know the real speed offered by your mobile operator in 3G and 4G connections? Users of Android devices have a new option thanks to the application Advanced Speed Test A tool able to shed some light on these questions in a simple and fast way, checking both the download and upload speeds , plus other details.
It is an application very easy to use Thanks to its simple but colorful design it is possible to check in just a few seconds all the general data of the Internet connection that reaches the mobile from which it is being checked. Of course, always taking into account if you are connected to a WiFi network or to the data rate , since the conditions are usually different, and therefore, also the results. In addition, when performing the test through the user's data connection it is possible to generate a small spike in consumption during the test Small issues to consider before testing perform the speed test, along with the idea that it is not possible to check the real speed of a connection if you do not use a cable to the router
With all this in mind, all you have to do is press the big central button on the main screen. That's when the test begins, checking three key points of the connection you're on, either WiFi or data The first of these points is the Ping or time of response between the device and the server, also checking the quality of the connection. After a few seconds, it goes to the next point, generally the most important: the download speed Thus, an indicator checks the maximum amount of bits or data that can be downloaded per second through that connection. Finally, there is the upload speed, which is usually less than the download speed, and which is especially important for those users who publish content such as videos on social networks.
After a few seconds the speed test endsAt that moment the main screen gives way to the results of the three key points of the connection The good thing is that all this data remains registered in a history, which can be visited from the bottom tab of the application. In this list, the type of connection (WiFi or data) is clearly marked, as well as the datein which the test was launched, the Ping, the speed of Download and also that of Upload Everything well ordered so that it is recorded and the user can review and compare at all times.
As extra points, this application allows you to access its Settings section and choose the unit of measurement between Mbps and Kbps It also allows you to reduce the analysis to Ping, the speed of Download or Raise when selecting which parameters to measure from the lateral menu
In short, a very simple and quite agile application to know the speed of the connection that is being used. A tool that can be used by any user, whether or not they have advanced knowledge. The good news is that Advanced Speed Test is fully available free, but only for Android Downloadable from Google Play
