TrueSignal

TL;DR Your bars lie. TrueSignal measures the connection you ACTUALLY have.

Really. Those bars? They are lying to you. They show SIGNAL STRENGTH, which is almost meaningless to you and your phone. TrueSignal measures YOUR phone's ACTUAL connection, not just the signal your phone sees.

I've been there. I've been frustrated. At the football game. At the airport. On the road while traveling. Restart the phone. Say choice words. Wander around and look for more bars. We've ALL been there! I couldn't find an app that actually gave me my ACTUAL connection, so I created TrueSignal.

This isn't another speed test app. They exist (and are very good). But you actually have to have a connection in order to use those apps. No connection = useless speedtest apps.

TrueSignal shows real connection quality with live latency monitoring, simple green/yellow/red status, event history, and SignalFinder - the compass that points you toward a stronger signal.
