I have used and enjoyed SpeedTest for quite a long time now, but they now have combined Downdetector into SpeedTest and we have lost functions of Down Detector. You can now only save 3 favorites. I hope they change it to allow saving more favorites. After more review, the Downdetector portion of Speedtest has lost many more features like map of area reporting the outage. I hope they include all the features of Downdetector app into the SpeedTest app. It is almost useless now.

It's good, but wish I could add more than 3 favorites to Down detector like I had with the actual app. I could at least know when more of my favorites being down quicker than scrolling through the entire list. I get that the one having trouble will be at the top, but can you by chance make it where we can add more than 3? Is there a subscription to do in order to do more than 3 favorites?
