Does not work with Android 10. Edit:. They updated the app to work some time ago, but the speed readout drops to two characters even though there are three. For instance, it read 231, and then reads 23. Interestingly, this ses to happen only on the initial start, if you stop and restart or task switch away and restart it's fine.
It only works for 5Ghz networks and also the feedback option from within the up doesn't work. (I wouldn't jave left de review here if that feedback form was working)
So, this is more of a heads up for the developers. I've been using WiFi sweetspots as a casual tool for a few years now - Untill recently with no issues! Running the app with an Asus GT-AX6000, no problem. Add an Asus RP-AX56 AiMesh node (even when not connecting though it), and the reported speeds fall through the floor. But it seems this is the reported speeds and not the actual speed. So I don't know if it's some kind of weird routing or management that's kicking in, but its odd! xxx
