Review summary

Users appreciate the app's potential usefulness in WiFi troubleshooting and its accuracy. However, the overwhelming amount of intrusive ads greatly hinders usability, leading to frustration and uninstalls. Additionally, the app provides limited network details and may not meet expectations for advanced functions like hotspot mapping. Some users also mention slow test runs and cumbersome navigation. Overall, despite its helpful features, the excessive advertising and limited capabilities negatively impact the user experience.

Pros

App can be helpful in troubleshooting WiFi issues, such as assisting with WiFi not turning on.
Some users find the app reliable, accurate, and helpful for network testing.
Good service and communication noted by a user.

Cons

Excessive and intrusive advertising throughout the app, including ads covering results and frequent pop-ups.
App performance issues like long testing times and multiple menu layers which prolong use.
Limited functionality in detecting multiple networks or providing detailed WiFi information like speeds or signal strength of other networks.
Non-matching app description to actual app experience; some find the app not very useful for mapping WiFi hotspots or detailed network analysis.

2021-09-06	Jo*****	I really thought this app was going to help but unfortunately it really doesn't do much. I'm trying to map WiFi hotspots in my home and areas where WiFi is weak so that way I can build a better network but unfortunately not only does this just give me the general signal strength but it doesn't actually see the other networks in my home or the speeds or signal strength on them

2021-08-26	Re*****	App helped me fix wifi not turning on. Followed The Droid Guy's instructions but was reluctant to finally do a factory reset so looked for testing app. This app tested then asked if i wanted wifi on, i said yes and it asked for my modem password and up came the wifi icon and it all worked ok. THANKS guys.
