About this app

NetThrottle promises to save your bandwidth and mitigate latency issues on networks, by simulating bandwidth throttling and managing DNS delays. From 3G/4G, Wi-Fi, and Edge data to streaming media traffic, NetThrottle detects and slows down the heaviest users gradually to give everyone plenty of time to get their traffic installed and optimized for optimum performance. Smart insights let you see where your most demanding traffic is coming from and tweak your settings as needed.

features

-Bandwidth simulation and throttling: NetThrottle simulates real-world bandwidth throttling to ensure that your network experiences the same levels of latency and bandwidth as a real-world connection.

-Smart insights: See where your most demanding traffic is coming from and adjust settings as needed.

-Integrated monitoring: Monitor network performance in real-time and identify potential trouble spots.

-Compatibility: Compatible with most popular operating systems and devices.

Ratings and reviews

Does what it says it does, for free. Speed testing indicates selected throttle is accurate (~10% margin of error, expected) and so far no ads or anything like that. Only feedback is ancillary, the choice of font is one that looks kind of handwritten? Odd choice for a productivity/utility app.

Works great to limit the data usage while streaming. If your data plan has a cap/limit, this can help you extend that quota. Some streaming services if you have a good signal will stream at the highest resolution without taking in consideration your data quota limit. Without an option to lower that resolution on the streaming app you will need to throttle your connection to force a lower resolution streaming... this app is the solution. Thanks

I've installed the app to throttle the speed when using hotspot. But after I switched off the hotspot and app, my device's network speed has come down drastically. I've tried uninstalling the app, rebooting the phone, resetting the network settings too. But now I'm left with eternal low speed network..
