Hotel WiFi Test Launches Mobile App for iPhone and iPad
NEW YORK, December 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
iOS is by far the most popular operating system for travelers interested in fast hotel
WiFi. To meet that demand, Hotel WiFi Test is releasing an iOS mobile app to make it even
easier to find hotels with fast WiFi or perform a speed test at a hotel.
The new free Hotel WiFi Test mobile app
[https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hotel-wifi-test/id943477589?ls=1&mt=8 ] for iPhone and
iPad contains two main parts: hotel search and speed test.

In the search part, along with the standard hotel search feature, the app adds
criteria related to WiFi quality, such as expected WiFi speed, WiFi Happiness rating (how
happy travelers are with WiFi in a given hotel), and the location of free WiFi. These
criteria can be used to filter your hotel options, or to color code the hotel markers on
the map.
The speed test part makes it easy to perform a speed test for the hotel you are
staying at and then share it in a single tap. Your test result, together with other speed
tests performed at that hotel, is used to calculate the estimated WiFi speed and other
WiFi related parameters.
The usage stats of hotelwifitest.com reveal quite an interesting fact: travelers that
are interested in fast WiFi are twice as likely to use iOS devices than average Internet
users. It makes iOS the most popular mobile platform for such travelers, even though
Android is much more popular with regular Internet users.
June-November Usage share at General usage share according to StatCounter
2014 hotelwifitest.com
iOS 24.13% 11.82%
Android 12.81% 17.9%
Experienced travelers know that the quality of hotel WiFi can be very poor, even in
expensive hotels, despite numerous studies confirming that it is an essential hotel
amenity. With this new app
[https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hotel-wifi-test/id943477589?ls=1&mt=8 ], it is easier than
ever to find a hotel with fast high-quality WiFi or to simply do a confidence check for
your chosen hotel before booking.
Hotel WiFi Test is the most efficient and popular tool for searching hotels by WiFi
quality. 228 hotels have been tested in New York
[http://www.hotelwifitest.com/hotels/us/new-york ] alone. The recently announced hotel WiFi
monitoring and certification program will provide extremely detailed and reliable
information concerning WiFi quality by monitoring hotel WiFi networks 24/7.
