Speedtest by Ookla

Speedtest by Ookla is a network testing app that helps you quickly understand what’s happening with your connection. With it, you can check your current status, measure download and upload speeds, and view latency (ping). It also provides tools to check network coverage, so you can better judge overall signal conditions.

The app can monitor the status of apps and games running on your device, along with network usage in real time. It also includes 2GB of free data each month. Speedtest is continuously updated with additional fun testing options to make checking your internet feel more enjoyable and convenient.

Key Features

Accurate speed tests for download, upload, and latency

Run an Internet speed test with one tap. Speedtest shows clear results for download, upload, and ping whether you’re on Wi‑Fi or cellular. The output is easy to read, helping you understand how your connection performs for everyday tasks like web browsing, video calls, and online gaming. A large global server network supports stable measurements for quick checks and direct comparisons.

Real-time outage checks with Downdetector

Speedtest includes an integrated view powered by Downdetector so you can test while also checking service health. You can follow favorite apps and providers, view live outage maps, and submit reports if services appear to be down. This helps you tell the difference between a local connection problem and a wider service disruption—so your results have more context.

Coverage maps and 5G availability

Use Mobile Coverage Maps to see areas where your carrier’s signal is strong or weak. You can explore nearby places and common routes to get a clearer picture of where your phone may perform better, including where 5G is available. This makes it easier to compare carriers in your area before switching plans or troubleshooting reception issues.

Video test to check streaming readiness

The video test evaluates current streaming performance and highlights the risk of buffering. It then recommends practical next steps—such as running another test on a different network or moving closer to your router—to help you confirm whether your connection is ready for the resolution you want before you press play.

User Reviews

• “Great app. You can test your phone speed and even choose different test servers in different locations to get a fuller picture of your speed—what works best for watching videos, searching the internet, and more. It also shows the maximum resolution you’re getting at the time. The Down Detector feature is awesome—it tells you which apps are having issues and possible reasons why.”

• “I’ve used Speedtest for years and compared it with other options. I’ve found it to be the most reliable and accurate Wi‑Fi testing app. I’ve always used the free Play Store version and never paid, and I’ve had zero issues. I even saw installation technicians using it.”

  

• “You can view your Wi‑Fi speeds throughout the day, which helps me plan around peak times. There’s also a history page showing each test with the date, time, and speed—so you can spot when your Wi‑Fi performs best.”
