The 'Wehe' app comes as a response to the recent ruling to overturn Net Neutrality by providing users with the ability to track for performance differences when using different services or apps. Developed by a team of researchers at the Northeastern University and The University of Massachusetts Amherst, the app is available for use on both iOS and Android devices.
The 'Wehe' app works by recording the network traffic on apps such as Netflix, YouTube, Amazon and much more to run a comparison with your own experience. By performing the tests, the app is able to provide you with information on whether you're getting the best possible experience or finding yourself being limited by your ISP.
