About this app

TRAI MySpeed introduces a new and enhanced framework for measuring network performance using a standardized, regulator-aligned methodology. The application enables users to assess internet performance across mobile and Wi-Fi networks through multiple test modes, while contributing anonymized data to support network performance assessment, analysis, and transparency initiatives by TRAI.

This version of application shifts focus from basic speed testing to a more comprehensive measurement of network quality, stability, and usability under real-world conditions.
Key Features
1. Speed Tests
Speed Tests provide an instant snapshot of internet performance by measuring:
Download speed
Upload speed
Latency
Packet loss
Jitter
Results are generated within seconds and reflect network conditions at the time and location of the test.

2. Video & Browser Tests
Video & Browser Tests evaluate how well the network supports common internet usage scenarios by measuring:
Delay experienced during video streaming simulations
Delay experienced during web browsing simulations
These tests help indicate the network’s suitability for everyday digital activities such as streaming and browsing.

3. Advanced Test Modes
Continuous Test (Speed / Video & Browser Tests)
Enables repeated testing while the user walks or drives
Helps observe variations in network performance across locations
Useful for understanding performance consistency along a route
Continuous Test – Coverage
Measures mobile signal strength while the user walks or drives
Helps visualize signal availability and coverage variations
Scheduled Test –
Allows users to configure tests to run automatically at predefined times
Tests run in the background based on user-defined schedules
Enables long-term trend analysis without manual intervention

4. Results History & Visualization
History Tab
View previously conducted tests in a tabular format
Access detailed results for individual tests
Map View
Visualize aggregated network performance using a location-based map
All map-based views are aggregated and anonymized

5. Settings & Customization
Users can personalize the app experience through the Settings section:
Configure data usage limits for tests
Select preferred application language
Submit feedback directly to TRAI
Rate app on app store directly

6. Network & Test Context Captured
During each test, the application captures relevant technical context required to interpret results, including:
Type of network connection (Mobile Data or Wi-Fi)
Operator / Service Provider information
Network technology (e.g., Wi-Fi, 4G, 5G, where available)
This contextual non-personal information is used exclusively for technical analysis and aggregation by TRAI.

7. Additional Enhancements
New and improved user interface
Additional test protocols
Dedicated History tab for reviewing all test results
Map tab displaying aggregated network performance
Settings tab for managing data limits, language preferences, and feedback

8. Disclaimer
Test results represent network conditions at the time and location of measurement, and may vary based on device-capability, network-load, environmental factors, and signal conditions.
