How to repeat on your side?
- Open your app and click “Check” just before the coin ping.
- Click “Stop” just after the ping has diminished.
Please note that, the sound quality of video is not always good. Luckily, since our friend youtubers often ping one coin several times, it gives us several chances to try especially when you got “not enought data” or “unstable result”.
Don’t forget: a real test always produces sound with better quality for the test.
