Coverage Map helps you find the #1 cell phone carrier in your area. It is a crowdsourced map of cellular networks in the US, Canada, United Kingdom, and Puerto Rico with more countries launching soon.
SPEED TEST MAP (All Countries)
• Highly accurate: see real-world performance reported by users
• Real-time: map updates in real-time as new data comes in
• Rich detail: tap any square to see download speeds, upload speeds, and latency for all carriers in that area
• Powerful filters: filter by carrier, LTE/5G, download speeds, upload speeds, or see your speed tests only
• Helpful color profiles: default, heat map, and best carrier help you visualize and understand the data
• Easy to understand: see what carrier performs best in an area at a glance with the Best Carrier color profile
BUILT-IN SPEED TEST (All Countries)
• Test your speeds: see how fast your LTE or 5G connection is by running a speed test
• Accurate results: get accurate results for download speed, upload speed, and latency
• Recurring tests: run up to 500 recurring tests automatically and customize the pause duration between tests
• Set a data limit: limit how much data the app can use
• Tag your tests: tag a test as indoor, outdoor, driving, or other
• Improve the Speed Map: running a speed test automatically contributes to the fastest-growing crowdsourced map of cellular networks (note: if your country is not currently supported, when we do launch in your country all of your tests will instantly be mapped and will show up on the map)
SIGNAL STRENGTH MAP (US only)
• Check reception: see where each carrier has great, good, or poor coverage
• Compare coverage footprints: toggle between carriers to see how coverage footprints compare in different areas
• Data for every location: the Signal Strength Map uses data from the FCC Broadband Collection, which has coverage data for the continental U.S., Alaska, and Hawaii
COVERAGE REPORT MAP (US only)
• Data-driven reports: the Coverage Report Map aggregates all available data points to generate detailed reports of cellular coverage & performance in every state, county, city, and ZIP code
• Percentage covered: see what percentage of an area each carrier covers
• Weighted median: see weighted median values for download speed, upload speeds, and latency for a better picture of real-world cellular performance
• Carrier rankings: see what carrier ranks best for coverage, speed, reliability, and overall performance in every area
• Distribution graphs: see the distribution graphs for download speeds, upload speeds, and latency
• Performance by time of day: see how data speeds vary over the course of day as network traffic picks up

Does a good job. Would like to see an option for a low data mode. Google and Netflix manage to get tests run without hitting GB of usage.The maps seem to have a “pink” bias. I have mapped one neighborhood with Boost only but when I check it using All networks, those squares are pink not orange. When I filter for just Boost they are orange.
Best app to find out good phone providers

With this app, I found out that my provider was the slowest with the most expensive plans. I would always use this app to find the best phone provider data for your location. It’s gonna save you money and make you more happier.

The app is amazing and everything works as intended. If possible can you make an update to the app so that it can work in the background. Currently if you start a speed test and open another app “coverage map” will pause until you reopen the app which defeats the purpose of features such as “smart” due to the fact that the app has to be open for all 500 tests.
Great app but could be improved on iPad
Bryson H.
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.
Developer Response
Hi Bryson, thank you for the great feedback. We have recently switched to squares and improved the resolution when zoomed out! You now get more granular detail of coverage areas when you're zoomed out on the map. And appreciate your other suggestions!
