Connection Rate

Real-time monitoring of network throughput on your active connection.

Overview

Connection Rate focuses on how fast data is flowing right now over Wi-Fi or cellular, helping you spot drops, stalls, and instability.

Download and upload rate (units may vary, commonly Kbps/Mbps)
Short history graph (if available)
Active interface (Wi-Fi vs cellular) and basic connection context (OS dependent)

Overview: Live rates and byte counters for Wi-Fi and Cellular.
Graphs (combined): A combined graph that overlays Wi-Fi and Cellular up/down rates.
Graphs (per interface): One graph per direction and interface.

The Overview tab is split into two cards:

Each card includes:

Unit picker (KB / MB / GB) to control how speeds and totals are formatted.
Download panel:
- Current speed (e.g. 0.52 MB/s)
- Total bytes transferred (formatted + raw bytes)
Upload panel:
- Current speed
- Total bytes transferred
Two block visualizations (download/upload) that "fill" based on recent traffic.

The combined graph shows four lines:

This tab splits the data into four panels:

Each panel includes the current speed and a scrolling history graph.

iOS privacy restrictions can limit what apps can access; fields may vary by OS version.
For end-to-end speed testing, pair this with a dedicated speed test in Safari or a trusted app.

This tool reports device-level transfer counters and computed rates. It is not an internet speed test.
Rates are smoothed and updated frequently; short spikes can be averaged out.
