Coverage Map

When zoomed in the resolution is great. However, when you zoom out the hexagons quickly get grouped together into larger averaged hexagons. This can leave the impression of service in areas when there is clearly no service once you zoom in. It would be nice if the averaging is not performed until you zoom out much further. This is especially the case on iPads where you have so much more useable screen than a phone. Downloading the FCC coverage map for offline use would also be great. Typically I want to see coverage when I am road tripping and when I am trying to see when or where I will get coverage back, there is already no coverage so I can’t see the map.

Ever since ookla gobbled up root metrics and canceled their amazing app I’ve been looking for a replacement. I don’t want to just do speed tests. I wanted a map where I could see real speed test data instead of the fake coverage maps carriers provide. Want to know if your vacation rental will have service and what the service will be like? This is the app for you. And it even has a multiple speed test mode so I can help fill out the map while driving hands free. Wow best app I’ve seen in a long time.

I’m so proud of the team that started this whole thing. They had an idea, and despite their small group in the beginning they have grown and was able to make this amazing app. It’s flawless IMO, and I love that I can help contribute data to help others make a better decision on which carrier works the best in their area. There’s VERY few paid features (like two, I think. Seriously.). You have nothing to lose to try it out! But if you’re going to contribute, make sure you’re on an unlimited data plan! Doing a bunch of speed tests on your cell phone can quickly add up on your data usage!
