This app is amazing, but sometimes there are issues. Every now and then there's a problem where it says there's a connection issue, and then I have to restart the app to get it to load. It would be cool if down detector itself was added to the list of sites for when it itself goes down for some, or when glitches happen on mass.
★★★★★
Too bad they are shutting it down in favor of the Speediest app which doesn't have even half of the functionality this app has. It's a disgrace 😞
★★★★★
The simplest and easiest way to check if the trouble you're having with a service is on your end or their end. Allows you to add services to a favorites list for easy tracking. You can also filter the options to show services by their status (how much trouble other users have reported). Plus you can report issues you're having personally with just a few taps. I recommend it for your app collection.
★★☆☆☆
Being told that the app i absolutely need is being shutdown and to install an app that I DON'T need is a bummer. I only wanted to see if sites/platforms are down, not test my speed. There's no excuse to need a speed tester in an app designed to tell me if a network is down or not. Being back down detector and get rid of speed tester.
★★☆☆☆
Less than useless. Won't run on rooted devices for an unknown reason. Removed root and tried to check if a specific server was down and the app just stares at you blankly, never returning results. It seems to only check sites on a specific list.
★★☆☆☆
Integrating this app into Speediest with only three favorites and no more comments is just absolute insanity. PLEASE RECONSIDER!!!!!
