Very useful. would like export functionality

The IMCP time feedback and roam time output are great. It would be awesome if the text data could be exported (other than a screenshot).
A good start, but needs improvement

The app attempts to provide useful information about your iOS device's roaming behavior. What it does well: 1. It shows you the BSSID your device is associated to at the moment. It updates this as you roam. 2. Shows a continious ping to a host of your choice, while you roam. What needs improvement: 1. It comes up with impossible roam times (4ms, 5ms, etc.), when in reality it's more like 40-80 ms. The method it is using to calculate roam times is flawed, and misleading. Doing a over-the-air 802.11 frame capture your iOS device's roaming behavior with a professional tool on a laptop will give far more accurate results. If accurate results can't be done, the roam time measurement should be removed from the app. It's completely misleading as it is. 2. The BSSID is displayed incorrectly if there is a zero in the first digit of the octet. For example, if the actual BSSID was "00:1a:1b:1c:1d:0e", it would display it as "0:1a:1b:1c1d:e". This should be simple to fix. Just don't drop the leading zero. 3. The UI doesn't appear to follow Apple's design guidelines. It looks like an Android app that was ported to iOS, with little though to how it should look. Summary: It's great to see what BSSID you are associated to, and when you roam. The rest is less useful, or just plain misleading.
Useful for checking AP deployment

This is very close to what I was looking for to verify connectivity and roaming through my Ubiquiti installation. The one change that I would like to see is to replace the running timer, which has no value to me, with the current RSSI. That’s what the iPhone uses to determine when to roam, and I’d like to monitor that along with BSSID and pinging. There’s another app that shows RSSI, ping, and BSSID on different tabs, so this is slightly more convenient, but is missing RSSI.
Report and Graph functions fail

The app does not work as advertised on iOS 12.1.1. Don’t buy w/o seeing a vendor update announcement.
Quick and dirty

As a wireless engineer I’ve found this a great quick and dirty tool to have remote users give me stats. It’s not Cape, Ekahau, or Airmagnet, but it gives quick useful info!
The Graph is useless

Doesn’t graph live, only when completed. The graph only shows three data points. The only redeeming quality for this $10 ping tool is that it shows the BSSID on the screen alongside the ping responses. Does some math to show transition time in a text dump at the end of the run.
