I was finding my wifi speeds too slow so I used this app to analyze both the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands. I found 2.4 to be overloaded, but found some unused channels on 5Ghz. After adjusting my channels I am getting great speeds again. After installing this app I would get random Google play pop ups about once an hour. After uninstalling the ads went away. App developer: I'd be okay with an add popping up when I open the app, but not hourly. Uninstalled.

Works well. Helps me choose the best channel for my router to avoid clashing with the neighbors. 2023 updated to a new Android phone, and it didn't work until I enabled the location and rebooted the phone. Seems to work now. Would be nice if signal list included channel or band and which satellite on my mesh I am connecting to. Also need a little more contrast to read network names on crowded channels.
