Find Nearby Cell Towers &
Improve Your Mobile Signal

Simply open the app and allow location access. The app will automatically display all nearby cell towers on an interactive map. You can see the distance, signal strength, and network type (5G, 4G, 3G) for each tower. Use the filter feature to find towers by specific network types.

Yes! The app helps you find the best location for optimal signal strength. By locating the nearest tower and understanding signal direction, you can position yourself or your signal booster antenna for maximum reception. The AR mode is particularly useful for aligning signal boosters.

Our app uses a comprehensive database of over 50 million cell towers worldwide, combined with real-time signal measurements from your device. Tower locations are accurate to within a few meters, and signal strength readings are updated in real-time based on your current position.

The app uses a combination of public tower databases, regulatory filings, and crowd-sourced data from millions of users worldwide. Our database is continuously updated to ensure accuracy and includes information about tower locations, operators, network types, and coverage areas.

MCC (Mobile Country Code) is a unique three-digit country code used in mobile networks. It serves to identify the country of the mobile network operator and is used in conjunction with the mobile network operator's code (MNC) to create a unique network identifier.

MNC (Mobile Network Code) is a unique code for a mobile network operator within a country. Together with MCC, it forms a unique identifier for each mobile network. The MNC consists of 2-3 digits and allows for the identification of the operator within a single country.

LAC (Location Area Code) is used in GSM and UMTS networks and represents an identifier defining a group of base stations forming a service area in the network. It allows the system to track subscriber locations.

TAC (Tracking Area Code) is used in LTE networks for similar purposes as LAC in older technologies, identifying a group of cells for tracking a device.

NID (Network ID) is used in CDMA networks and denotes a unique network identifier within a certain area.

Samples in the context of cell towers refer to data or measurements collected from cell towers and mobile devices. These data may include information on signal strength, connection quality, network load, and other parameters. They are used for analyzing and improving network performance, planning network expansion, and optimizing coverage.

TADIG (Transferred Account Data Interchange Group) is an international standard for mobile roaming data exchange between operators. The TADIG code is used to identify operators in the exchange of billing and service usage data in roaming, ensuring the correct calculation of service costs and their billing between operators.

Dynamic Spectrum Sharing (DSS): Some mobile operators use Dynamic Spectrum Sharing technology, allowing the same frequency bands for both 4G and 5G networks. This means your device can receive a 5G signal from a tower officially registered as 4G/LTE, as DSS enables operators to efficiently allocate the spectrum to provide both 4G and 5G services without the need for complete reinstallation or new equipment.

Using Existing Infrastructure: Many operators deploy 5G by upgrading existing 4G/LTE towers with new equipment. In such cases, a tower might not be marked as 5G on the map, even if it provides 5G coverage, because operators can update the tower's equipment to support 5G using the existing infrastructure, allowing for faster and more efficient 5G network deployment.

Low-Power Nodes and Femtocells: To improve coverage and capacity inside buildings and in dense urban areas, 5G networks use low-power nodes and femtocells, which may not be as noticeable on public tower maps. These low-power stations can provide 5G signal in a limited area and might not be listed in the database as separate 5G towers due to their scale and deployment method.

These are different generations and technologies of mobile networks, each with their own technical names:

5G (NR - New Radio): The latest generation of mobile networks, providing the fastest speeds and lowest latency. NR stands for "New Radio" and refers to the 5G radio access technology.

4G (LTE - Long Term Evolution): The fourth generation of mobile networks, offering high-speed internet. LTE is the technical standard for 4G networks that most carriers use today.

3G (UMTS - Universal Mobile Telecommunications System): The third generation of mobile networks, providing basic data services. UMTS is the 3G standard used by most GSM-based carriers.

You may also see other technologies like GSM (2G - Global System for Mobile Communications) or CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) depending on your carrier. The app displays both the generation number (5G, 4G, 3G) and the technical standard name (NR, LTE, UMTS) to help you better understand what type of network you're connecting to.
