iPerf for Android

iPerf is a commonly used network testing and performance measurement tool. This app is intended for those who are familiar with the use of iPerf. For details and a tutorial, see my website. This app will not be useful unless you have a second phone or computer to use as an iPerf client/server.
Great for testing Wifi!

Will be great if you add easy accesible help or options button. Pre-defined commands or macros or something like last used iperf server will be usefull too. I'm boring ecery time entering simmilar information for quick speed test specialy on the field

Used this to test wifi transfer rates. Works just as expected. Needs an option to prevent the app from transmitting on cellular data though as in just a few minutes it had used up 500MB (1/4 of my monthly data plan) as it continued transmitting after wifi dropped.

iperf is THE bandwith test tool there is and now there is a good android version. Very nice! Got 60Mbit on a SGS3 over 5.0Ghz. Client works, Server works, duplex test works, setting time duration works. Tested on Galaxy S2 and S3 and on a Asus Transformer all working. Only issue I encountered was a screen update issue that sometimes some text would fail to appear. Further then that, perfect.

Works well on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus running ICS. It tops out at ~20Mbps. Could be limitation of my wifi router because a laptop does the same. Only complaint is that when testing with -r option the second test stops after just 2 seconds. I've seen this happen on PCs as well, so no strikes against this app.

Doesn't work on Nexus Player. Even though it will install and run, trying to enter command line args just crashes the app.

you need to know iperf. I'm sure someone who cared to could put together a more noob friendly interface, but for my purposes it works like a charm (didn't work on Nexus Player, but I blame Google/Asus for that since the device was so utterly useless in every other way!)

Messes up output, clips columns, makes a fairly easy command line tool much harder.

If you know iPerf and use it regularly, you'll love this handy little app on your A/V system. I use it regularly to check out my HSI's performance. And hell, you get big nerd points when guests see the output running on your HDTV.

Installed Jperf 2.0.2 on Windows 10 laptop. Connected laptop to router and disabled WiFi. Use UDP option to avoid TCP window size issues. Measured 80Mbps downlink speed on phone using Xfiniti router.

- If the phone changes orientation, portrait or landscape, it clears the screen. - Sometimes the last line of the results don't show, which is the most important. Other than that, it's ok

But the "i" in "iperf" has nothing to do with the Apple naming convention and as such the case should follow normal rules, e.g. "Iperf for Android"

It all seems to work well except for the -r command which is supposed to allow bidirectional testing. It works in server mode but not client

I use iperf a lot, so this was a nice find. Doesn't seem to play well with iPerf3 on my Linux box at home, but works really well with iperf-2.0.5, which is what i have installed on most of my servers anyway.

I ran this on a slew of android devices and it almost never shows the results for the test. It shows titles for the columns where it should display the results but nothing underneath. I had to look at the server's output to see my results.

This is a great app, but it appears 7.0 breaks it. I can't give it a bad rating get for an OS change. Worked awesome on earlier v Android versions. Hopefully it can be updated. Thnx 😉

Does exactly what you'd expect it to do. My only complaint is that there's nowhere that mentions it's iperf2 (not iperf3); not difficult to figure out though.

Ugly text display that frequently drops parts of the output from the iperf program. App provides no help with setting up the options for iperf.

When traffic runs, If the device is kept in screen rotation, then if we toggle from portrait view to normal mode or vice versa....traffic stops. This is a major problem when I gotta run multiple devices in my IOT setup.

Nice - it works! I can finally see how fast Wireless AC is on my phone... 450Mbit/s sounds good. I'd buy a pro version to support - especially if it had the new lollipop UK :) A list of last servers, as well as checkboxes for usual parameters would be nice.

Stupid app makes you pull your hair out wtf'ing until you try using plain IP instead

Console output is sometimes incomplete. The speeds are not always displayed.

Nice one for those who like GUI. Android should have most GNU utils by default but Google chose another way with retarded toolbox etc.

Joh. R. Dec 12, 2013     

assuming you know the CLI options to iperf, you will find this app very useful.

Iperf on your droid. Nothing more, nothing less.

All. T. L. Sep 13, 2016     

Pinch me I must be dreaming. I can't believe how easy it is to run traffic with this app. Praise be!!!

Works as described, nice tool

Ray. C. Oct 27, 2013     

Not compatible with iperf3; returns null response. Menu::Preferences simply activates the "command line" entry instead of providing a preferences screen. Why is that option there?
