User Reviews

Users praise accuracy, lightness, and easy UI, plus developer responsiveness. Major downsides are intrusive ads, update-induced reliability problems (status bar speeds and rotation popups), weak visualization (no vertical axis, current speeds sometimes missing), flaky notification updates, and limited widget customization (finicky positioning, no direct size/offset input).

Pros

Accurate and reliable speed readings
Lightweight and efficient performance
Easy to use with a clean UI
Responsive developer who replies to feature requests

Cons

Intrusive fullscreen ads and monetization model; removal via paid option requested
Update-related reliability issues breaking the status bar speed indicator or causing rotation popups
Unreliable visualization: histogram/graph lacks current speeds and vertical axis
Notification shade reliability issues: inconsistent speed updates and high-priority notification options not working
Limited customization: finicky positioning sliders and lack of direct size/offset input (no dp-based option or text alignment controls)

Gr8 tool for monitoring the network (both WiFi and mobile) but I would prefer to choose what to see in notifications, preferring Data over WiFi.. Then, five stars ☝️
