Hi

I don't know if this has been discussed before, apologies in advance, but I was just wondering what in the opinion of others is currently the most reliable/best speed test app on the market. Also what is the worst they have experienced. I have used many over the past 2/3 months, and was wondering what others were using, i have used the below as a guide, interesting to know;

I'm seeing speed but not a usage amount?

Edit: I can see what you've done. The 54 & 17 is the speed of data transfer, you can't add them together to get an amount of data used....

I have only taken a screenshot of the saved test. When the original test was done it showed 71mb as data used. This is what has caused me to query this. Data used in total only shows while the test is conducted, once you leave the screen it doesn't show that information again except for the final speed test results.

OK, can't give any more advice, sorry, as I don't use that app....

Below is a screenshot of what the test screen looks like. As you can see no mobile data has been used due to it been a WiFi test. It is on this screen that it clearly showed 71mb mobile data used, but it had in fact taken approx 120mb.

For balance speedtest.net uses about 99mb of data on bt infinity 2 whereas when I tried one on 3g using the o2 network it only used about 9mb

I think in relation to my original post ookla speedtest is probably the most reliable......
