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..
