Overview

SwiftCheck tests your internet speed directly in Chrome — no
websites to visit, no accounts to create, no waiting for a page
to load. Just click the icon and run.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHY MB/s AND NOT Mbps?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Most speed tests report in Mbps (megabits). Your browser
downloads, file manager, and every app on your PC show MB/s
(megabytes). This causes constant confusion — you see "10 Mbps"
on a speed test and wonder why your downloads only show 1.2 MB/s.

SwiftCheck shows MB/s — the real number that matches what you
actually see when downloading a file.

10 Mbps → 1.25 MB/s
50 Mbps → 6.25 MB/s
100 Mbps → 12.5 MB/s

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
FEATURES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- Ping / latency measurement
- Download speed in MB/s
- Upload speed in MB/s
- Connection quality rating (Excellent / Good / Fair / Poor)

Live animated speedometer — needle fluctuates like a real analog meter while the test runs

Dynamic dial scale — probes your speed first, then sets the scale to match your connection. A slow line gets a 0–3 scale with full needle travel. A fast line gets 0–100.

Results persist — close and reopen the popup anytime, your last result is still there with a timestamp

Light and dark theme — toggle in the header, saved across sessions

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
PRIVACY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SwiftCheck collects absolutely nothing. No analytics, no
tracking, no accounts. Test traffic goes only to
speed.cloudflare.com — the same infrastructure used by
Cloudflare's own speed test. Results are stored locally on
your device and never leave it.

Permissions used:
- storage — saves your theme preference and last result locally
- speed.cloudflare.com — download and upload test traffic only

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
OPEN SOURCE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SwiftCheck is fully open source. No build tools, no
dependencies — plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Read the code,
modify it, or contribute on GitHub.
