BufferBeat
Speed tests show what your network could do. BufferBeat shows what it actually does. Real buffering data from real YouTube and TikTok sessions, mapped by location and carrier.
Three steps. Zero guesswork.
Choose YouTube or TikTok, set a test duration (5โ10 minutes), and tap Start. BufferBeat monitors your actual viewing session in the background.
Advanced frame analysis detects every buffer event in real-time, measuring duration, frozen frames, and correlating each event with your cell signal and GPS location.
Your anonymous data joins the public heatmap. See where video quality is great โ and where it breaks โ by carrier, network type, and time of day.
