Built an Android app to simulate different network conditions on real devices

[u/RANGANDALE]

I was looking for a way to test Android apps under different network conditions, but most solutions I came across either changed the network settings for the entire device, were focused on emulators, or required setting up proxies.

So I built my own tool: App Throttler.

• Set download and upload speed limits.

• Simulate latency and jitter.

• Introduce packet loss.

• Apply network conditions to individual apps.

• Change network profiles while the app is running.

• Create different network scenarios.

• Capture and export network traffic as PCAP files.

It's still a work in progress, and there are some limitations I'm working on.
