In addition to measuring up- and download speed and the delay time resulting from the network, you can also express your opinion via the app: evaluate your network quality and, if necessary, point out problems such as poor voice quality or frequent connections. On a Germany card, you can see the averaged results of all users on a few kilometers and learn how good the quality of the providers in Germany is.
In cooperation with the network specialist NCQA and the Floq network test, Chip evaluates the measurement results anonymously and will always publish the results. The pressure on the network operators is growing to repair the weak points in their nets. For the future, it is also intended that the network operators can buy detailed technical information on problems in their network at NCQA. Of course, no personal data is passed on, but only network -relevant information such as the location and time of the measurement, measured data rate and other technical parameters for data connection.
The most important features at a glance:
★ Measure the download and uplocadrates as well as the delay time of your network

Note: The network test consumes data volume and can cause costs if you have no flat rate. The amount of data cannot be determined in advance because it depends on the pace of the network connection. In the setting menu of your device below the "Data consumption" point, you can see how much data has been incurred by you.
Finally, the explanation of the necessary authorizations for the app:
-Telefan status and identity call up-
It is required so that the app can determine whether a telephone call was held during a measurement, as this can affect the measurement result.
-Genau location/approximate location
Serves to determine the position in the measurement to display it on the map
-Access additional service provider commands for the location
Helps with the position determination if GPS is not available
-USB storage contents change, delete, read-
Serves the storage of temporary data and the measurement data
-Google Service Configurations read-
Is required for card display in the app
-General network access-
Is necessary for the test itself and to transfer the test results
-Fle-state deactivating-
Prevents the processor from going "sleeping" during the test - that would also falsify the measurement results
