Xamarin.Forms - Mobile Network Speed Check(Slow or Fast) in Android

In this blog post, you will learn how to check you mobile network speed(slow or speed) using android native in Xamarin.Forms.

Introduction

Xamarin.Forms code runs on multiple platforms - each of which has its own filesystem. This means that reading and writing files is most easily done using the native file APIs on each platform. Alternatively, embedded resources are a simpler solution to distribute data files with an app.

Prerequisites

• Visual Studio 2017 or later (Windows or Mac)
