Mobile apps can be fun to use - but during mobile app testing you might need to diagnosing problems and finding bugs can be complicated. At least with Network Info II on your Android you have a pocket-encyclopedia with all the important information you need.

At the basic level - Network Info II reports details on your mobile network connection, IP address, Wi-Fi connection, Bluetooth and details about your device and your sim card.

Powerfully too - you can refresh the info and save it - in recent testing we noticed a bug that some handsets seem to only report 6 digit IMSI’s (sim serial numbers). Thanks to Network Info - we were able to divine the root cause to the device and not a bug in the app.
