Cellular Tower Reviews

Says it’s free but it’s free to see nothing but a gps map of your area

Advertises 5G but shows no 5G. Worthless App. Makes you wonder. By the way, I’m not interested in expanding my cellular network. Get ready. Deleting app faster than I installed it.

It crush hen i start the application

Shows non-existing towers. Doesn’t show which tower I connect to. No way am I paying to find out it’s useless and expensive. Incredible lack of instructions.
Avoid.

Shows tons of towers on the screen. I have 5G service but shows no 5G towers near me in k own 5G service areas.
Also no way to identify where my cell service is connecting to.

I was just trying to figure out why my cell phone service is so limited at my home. CellularTower didn’t help at all!

I canceled CellularTower on March 22. March 25 they charged me again for another month. Want to see how long it’s gonna take to get this taken off my bill?

CellularTower is almost useless unless you pay and the data isn’t even accurate. I’m connected to 5G UW yet it shows no 5G towers. Can’t filter by “NR” unless you pay. Junk app.

So, what’s an average consumer supposed to do when he/she finds what looks like an AMAZING app, offering the tools we’ve been looking for…

Only to find that 80% of the function is disabled unless you buy CellularTower ?
And you are tempted to buy it, but find that it is only an annual SUBSCRIPTION?!?!

You know what we do? We delete CellularTower , walk away, and keep looking.

This is a disturbing trend in CellularTower Store.
Subscriptions are a HUGE turn off for buyers, and 9 times out of 10 we decline.

Sorry. Better luck next app.

All I was looking for was a simple app to show me where the closest 5G tower was. I installed the free version of this which promptly tried to get me to subscribe. The “mailbox “icon near the bottom of the screen will constantly flash bright red, claiming you qualified for $1000 gift card and other spam scams. The map direction does not update when you move the phone around which makes a difficult to use CellularTower to point an antenna to the closest cell tower. Why does it have to be so many ads?I understand how this is how developers make money with apps, but there is a huge difference between occasional pop-ups and constant flashing and fake notifications which far outweighs the limited capabilities of CellularTower.

Free app that basically doesn’t work unless you upgrade.

So all you can do is view. You can’t search unless you pay for a premium service? Not likely to have to pay

Not sure why so many different towers all over the country are showing up when I’m looking for the towers in my community. Can’t find them on CellularTower.

So it is supposed to have a three day free and then subscribe. NOPE! Before the free trial you have to pay. I won’t pay for something until I know it will work and do the job I need. Unfortunately so many apps are that wAu and this one it just another money hungry developer that doesn’t care about customers. If the developer was confident their app is good the they would do what they said on the intro pages. Oh well on your the next one.

App is completely useless. Balloons all over the map they don't tell you what they mean or what they're for, I know darn well there's not that many cell towers in my area. You have to pay for everything and anything that is free to use is not helpful at all. don't waste your time installing CellularTower .

As I turn around in a circle, the arrow keeps pointing to all different location. For example, if it was actually working and the arrow pointed east no matter how I turn arrow should always point east, but it goes all over the place. Absolute waste of time.

This does not work, and it asks you to add $0.99 add ons that also do not work. Watch out for this, it will ask you multiple times to accept the add on, and charge you $0.99 each time. Maybe CellularTower used to be good but it didn’t work at all for me. Stay away!

CellularTower provides:
- some useful information (carrier, lattitude, longitude, distance),
- a lot of useless information (that is probably helpful to field engineers or network administrators, but not to end users -- like me),
- but not any HELPFUL data.

When I'm in the mountains, looking for a good signal, knowing the lat/long or distance to a tower is not helpful if I can't connect to it. I know that this is a difficule 3-dimensional problem, but it is the problem I need solved. CellularTower cannot do that for me.

And... WATCH OUT for auto-subscribe. Although I knew this product was not helpful within a few minutes, I neglected to cancel the automatic subscription, moving this from NOT HELPFUL to NEGATIVE VALUE.

I want to unsubscribe, I can’t make heads or tails of CellularTower. I can’t even figure out how to unsubscribe!

You can't get a screen to load without an ad opening. Then when you finally get to close the ad, another ad for their subscription service pops up. The cycle repeats every few seconds, before the gps zeros in on your position, yet another ad and the cycle repeats!

Do not understand any of it. Please cancel immediately

Shows towers that don’t exist.

App assumes far too much knowledge on the part of the user. There are no instructions on how to use that I can find.

Was looking for closest 5G tower and only 4G listed. My provider wasn’t listed either even though on their map, I’m in a 5G area.

Cannot search my area for my provider. There’s an option for that, but it doesn’t work. Don’t waste your money!

Finally found an app that forces you to pay(Fortunately it is free for the first 3 days) just to find out it will not search for what it is supposed to do. Possibly I may need to know more, but where in the heck is any instructions? So 1 star seems generous.

Text does not show up on this setting so I don’t know if it’s going through or not no instructions on use how to cancel or anything do not recommend it so it’s done

Only thing it shows is advertising, asking to pay, and google maps - totally useless

Somehow, CellularTower appeared to be closely related to a useful open-source signal strength and more app. $30 later, I can find no use for it. My fault, I guess.

CellularTower did not find any 5G towers in my area. And yet, I’m writing this review and sending it over a 5G connection.

Can’t find way to unsubscribe. Looks like Russian fraud.

Just downloaded CellularTower and started to look at cell towers. It shows that the majority of the towers in my neighborhood are Sprint (many years ago absorbed by T-Mobile). I suppose to have a tower (supposedly Sprint/TMobile) right behind my backyard in the alley (not even 20 yards away from where I am typing this now), but both I only see two bars on both of my connections (I have to active connections/sims in my phone one for data and the other for voice and both of them show two bars) and according to the map I have another 6 towers within a radius of 50 yards from either T-Mobile or Verizon.

No 5G map!

Waste of time to try before you buy. Gives a little useless info and insists on a minimum of $3.99 to even see what it will do, if anything. Almost every tap takes you to the purchase screen. Not going to pay even 4 bucks to find out if it is useful

Not very useful at all.

There are too many issues to list here. In essence, 5G (new Radio) doesn’t even show up on CellularTower . There isn’t much info listed on each of the towers and several of the features of CellularTower are non functional. Also, when using filters, it takes quite awhile to scroll through the provider list and when you find the right provider, it shows many multiples of the same provider with no distinguishing info so you don’t know what to select. There are better free tools out there.

Shows towers that do not exist and misses towers that do

If you only want to find towers and the basics, this is great, BUT you have to pay to do anything else. They do place quite a bit behind a pay wall. but for the basics this is fine.

The compass in CellularTower under the “map” function is 180 degrees opposite true direction. Very confusing

-Some interface work would improve CellularTower. Currently viewing all tower coverage is a cumbersome mess that doesn't improve much with zooming. Combining all samples for a single tower would probably help.
-Compass (top left of interface) appears to be unresponsive and stuck on incorrect direction.

Disappointed that no cell towers are identified on CellularTower as to the cell phone provider AT&T T-Mobile Verizon etc.

Doesn’t reflect most up-to-date tower info; no NBID

CellularTower works great on iPhone , gives a lot of info
And has a map but it does not tell you band cell provider is using to broadcast

I don’t want to pay for CellularTower. I want to cancel it. There are no introductions for cancelling. It did not provide information in a way that I understood. Please cancel

Went from zero signal inside my shop (steel structure) to 2 bars. Now I can U Tube repairs without walking outside
Found my closest cell tower in a snap to aim my antenna for my signal booster.

I tried them all and this one is the only one I could check throughout the day while working to figure out what service to get for my second data line

This is the only app that’s FREE, and will show me everything I need to know over all providers. Very useful in my area considering is in the boonies.

Muy buena

App doesn’t work

Gets you orientated with no hassle.

At my buddies cabin deep in the national forest … one bar … sporadically. Loaded CellularTower and it lit up all the cell towers around. Put up a basic booster antenna, pointed it with the help of CellularTower and VOILA 3 bars, sometimes 4.

Easy to use
