I retired from IBM in 2008 with 30 years of working with computers/networks Speedtest has been my go to network test for as long as I can remember. I have been a longtime Ookla Speedtest user for many moons…. Just notice that you had a Mac Desktop app!! Let's hope it to be temporary so I can dump the speedtest I don't like. BUT IF YOU HAVE AN IPHONE 12 THERE MAY WELL BE A SERIOUS PROBLEM.
Note I have given this app 4 stars as I really love it and have used it for years and years. I hope that the Ookla team will touch base with Apple and fix this. I think this shows the problem is in something Ookla is not allowing for as to some sort of change in the iPhone 12. Measurements all pretty much match the Mac's Ookla results at 300. That app works fine on both the 12 Max and the 12 Mini. But two iPhones doing the exact same thing? So I dwonloaded a competing speedtest app which I do not usually like as much as Ookla. Had I only bought the one iPhone I would likely have put on my mask and gone to the Apple Store.
I take care to match the chosen server to the one the Mac is using and it is an incredible difference. Sometime measures under 100, usually around 150. But when I run the app on both my new iPhone 12s I get the exact same results of very low speeds shown. It shows my Mbps speed to be at or even over the 300 Mbps line I pay for. The Ookla app on my iMac (2019) works great. But both show a disappointing incompatibility with the Ookla Speedtest app. A few days ago we upgraded to my iPhone 12 Pro Max and she loves her new iPhone 12 Mini. And it worked fine on my wife's iPhone 8 and on my iPhone 11 ProMax. I have used it on iPhones for years and years.
