Rescue Tests 3.0.0.0

A cool app for checking your phone's operational condition, with some neat extra tools inside
Verifying periodically if the mobile phone is in good working order is a good idea as it can give you a hint about possible issues before some component starts having trouble functioning properly.

For Windows Phone users who want to carry out this kind of testing on their handset there is a pretty neat app that can help them and it goes by the name of Rescue Tests.

Well designed GUI, with a practical layout

This application will greet you with a nice appearance that includes some cool graphics that are consistent throughout the utility and are accompanied by a high-quality background.

Going through the numerous sections and menus of the app is smooth and glitch-free, as there are no lags or other similar flaws. The convenient placement of all the features and commands is also a plus.

Less pleasant are the encounters you will have with the advertisements that come in the form of animated banners or in full screen. More so, there are some occasional prompts to rate and review the app that appear here and there.

Hardware tests and detailed system info

Rescue Tests enables you to carry through some assessments for the phone's camera, microphone and display. There is also a useful module for checking out the connected headphones for possible issues by executing several tests.

Inside the area dedicated to the system details you will be able to view a lot of information about everything form the screen resolution and device memory up to the sensors that are fitted to the handset and the current firmware version.

Supplementary verifications and useful tools at hand

With this app you can test the touch screen, GPS and location tracking as well as the other sensors your phone is equipped with. There is a thorough battery test at your disposal and if you can spare 20 minutes or so, it is worth taking it to learn if this important component of your phone is in good health or not.

Rescue Tests provides you with a set of handy utilities like the tip calculator, stopwatch or the ruler and protractor, while also allowing you to pin to the Start screen a variety of system shortcuts.

If you want to keep some text onto the lock screen, choose the utility as the app to show its detailed status under the "Notifications" area of the system settings, then write down the text and press the button that sends it to the lock screen.
