INTERNET SPEED TEST
Internet Speed Test is a macOS utility app that measures your internet connection performance by testing download speed, upload speed, latency (ping), and packet loss. It provides a simple interface for diagnosing network issues and monitoring connection quality over time. The app serves casual users checking their home or office broadband, travelers testing public WiFi, and professionals troubleshooting network problems. It is typically distributed as a standalone Mac app installed directly on the system.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionInternet Speed Test appears to be an Intel-only app with no confirmed native Apple Silicon build currently available. The search results do not indicate that the vendor (DHS or the distributor) has released a native version, although Ookla (the company behind Speedtest) does ship native arm64 builds of their Speedtest CLI tool for developers and command-line users. If you rely on the graphical Internet Speed Test app, contact the vendor to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned before macOS 28 ships in late 2027, since the current Intel-only build will stop launching on that release. As an alternative, you can use Speedtest CLI (installable via Homebrew on native Macs) or the free web-based Speedtest.net in your browser, both of which run natively on Apple Silicon and provide the same core speed measurement functionality.
