Opensignal Internet Speed Test 5.69.0

Opensignal is a comprehensive tool for testing mobile connectivity and network signal speed. With its range of features, it allows users to conduct speed tests for 3G, 4G/LTE, 5G, and WiFi connections. Additionally, it helps users find the best network provider in their area by comparing coverage from Sprint, T-Mobile, AT&T, and Verizon.

One valuable feature provided by Opensignal is video streaming testing. This feature allows users to check their streaming experience for platforms such as Netflix and YouTube. By measuring connection quality on an Apple map with a database of signal and speed test results, users can compare the quality they are paying for to the actual experience they are receiving.

Opensignal stands apart from other similar tools as it is completely free and doesn't display any advertisements. The mission of Opensignal is to create an open-source map of connectivity that benefits everyone in the world, ensuring they can enjoy the best available mobile connection.

• The Test tab provides users with a speed test feature and video streaming quality analysis. It displays results for the time spent buffering, loading, and playback.
• The Signal dashboard and ping test allow users to test latency response.
• There is a Connectivity map that shows the locations of 3G and 4G/LTE tests.
• The Network stats feature provides average speeds for download, upload, and latency, as well as network strength for major providers.
• Users can review their historical log of WiFi and 3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G speed tests to check connectivity over time.

Opensignal's speed tests provide users with a realistic view of their mobile connectivity and signal experience. These tests include a 10-second download test, a 10-second upload test, and a ping test to determine the likely speed users will experience. The tests run on common internet CDN servers, with the result calculated based on the middle range of samples.

The video speed tests offered by Opensignal are particularly helpful in evaluating network performance for video streaming. Users can determine if slow video load times, buffering, or long waiting periods occur more frequently than actual viewing time. Opensignal's video tests provide insights into network performance with HD and SD videos.

The coverage maps provided by Opensignal are a valuable resource for users who want to assess signal strength at a local level. Drawing on speed test and signal data from local users, these maps unveil signal strength down to the street level. Users can access network stats for local network operators, allowing them to check speeds before planning a trip or ensuring signal availability in remote areas. Comparing signal strength with other users in the same area helps users determine if they are receiving optimal service. Finally, the coverage maps can aid in selecting the best local SIM and evaluating signal strength while traveling.

As an independent source of truth in mobile network experience, Opensignal collects data on signal strength, network performance, location, and other device sensors. This data is shared with global network operators and industry stakeholders to drive improvements in connectivity worldwide. Users can choose to stop data collection at any time through the settings.
