I'm trying to test my iPhone and Android application with poor internet. I remember there was a program I read about a while back that would fake different types of poor internet. Does anyone remember what this program was called or if there is something similar I can use to accomplish this task?

Logical speed can be modified to any value, at any time, simply by a change in the configuration of one or more devices.
Spyware and viruses can definitely cause problems, but your Internet connection speed can also be affected by add-on programs, the amount of memory the computer has, hard disk space and condition, and the programs that are running. Two of the most frequent causes of poor Internet performance are spyware and viruses.
The one that I use and recommend is Charles Proxy. You set it up so that your iPhone or Android uses it as the proxy. Then it can throttle your connection to simulate poor network conditions like 3G.
It has a lot of other useful features like being able to track and inspect all your HTTP requests and responses which is really helpful when writing apps that access web services.

For iOS, as others have said, use the Network Link Conditioner settings under Settings > Developer > Network Link Conditioner.
For Android, just because nobody mentioned this...
Since the Android device is tunneling through the iOS device's network, it'll be effected by the iOS device's network link conditioner settings.
Super easy, super awesome, and configurable.
