I was simply looking for a simple WiFi signal strength-meter, either a moving needle or a multi-segment bar. Works with iOS 13.3, and provides useful indication of your WiFi coverage by evaluating data transfer speeds. This doesn't need to be realtime rather it can be generated after the recorded values are saved.īeyond that at face value it appears to do a good job. It would be so much more useful at being able to visualize the results. In addition, it would be useful to take the plotted points using gps data and map them to a google map and connect a line between the points so I can see the path I walked on a map with the corresponding wifi data. Would welcome from the makers of this application an explanation as to how they are measuring the strength of the signal.
That said as far as how exact the measurements are hard to tell. It might also be prudent to keep your finger on the record button and let the app avg the poll data. There is some latency encountered and to get an accurate reading I would suggest spending at least a minute in one location before moving to another. I'm gathering it pings and sends packets to the IP of your router to measure to calculate a result. This app "appears" to give valuable information when attempting to measure the strength of your wifi signal (that is the measurement of strength between your wifi router and your device (phone, computer, iPad, tablet, etc), NOT YOUR ISP.
