Antenna Point

With Antenna Point, you will see the television broadcast towers in your area, so you can find the best location to receive signals and install your indoor, attic or outdoor HDTV antenna. Antenna Point will identify your location and the distance from the transmitting towers. The concentric circles provide the coverage area of a 35-mile, 50-mile, and 70-mile range pattern. The towers are shown in black on the map, and you can click on each tower to see the affiliate name for each transmitter.

It's So Easy
Hold your smart phone or tablet horizontal to the ground and turn your device slowly as Antenna Point locateos the broadcast towers. There is also a 60° beam angle overlay that provides the best direction to aim your HDTV antenna.

Aim the antenna toward the TV stations' towers and check the reception by connecting your antenna to the TV and performing a channel scan. [Note: certain variables unrelated to the antennas performance can Interfere with signal reception, such as terrain, tall buildings, and trees].

Reviews

Only partially useful
DannyleeFlorida

There are several issues that make this app only partially useful. Although the towers icons are oriented in the correct direction, the overlay map is in the totally wrong direction and is therefore useless. The map will reorient and freeze when the phone is rotated. It is never in the correct orientation. The beam function points to a group of towers 70 miles away, not to the 5 towers in receiving range in the opposite direction. The only way this app is useful is to manually rotate (point) the phone to the direction of the towers you wish to receive. The beam and map displays are useless. iPhone 7+, iOS 11.3

Haywire!

This app just doesn’t work on my iPad or my phone.

No map
juddgl

When in the find mode no map is displayed at all,just the towers

Compass needs to be bigger to see
iPadReady

The compass needs to be larger or the numeric number of which direction you are pointing at needs to be displayed.

NOT Working Without GPS Location
lw-

This app does NOT work if you don't allow it to access your GPS location. I do not like having Location Services turned ON and prefer to enter my location manually, but this app does NOT allow you to enter an address. Please try to add this feature. Thank you.

Perfect!

I have had problems getting a strong signal for 2 of the TV stations in my area. I used this to properly align the antenna. Now I get a beautiful stable signal for every channel. I couldn’t be happier!

Perfect App

This little app worked perfect for the intended purpose. I put in my zip code, and pointed the antenna in the direction it told me. Channels came in perfectly. 10/10 would recommend

Works well thumbs up!

Id like to say this app works well and is very easy to use and comes with good documentation to explain to you how to use it. Only disadvantage I can think of is that i just bought a 150 mile digital antenna and im not sure where the towers are outside of the 70 mile range lol. Perhaps an update for 150 mile range? Or to allow pointing of any tower on map or loading other towers on map outside range? Thanks again!

Crashes during calibration, uses wrong location
Steve Sisak

This looked promising, unfortunately I wasn’t able to use it as intended as I was unable to fully launch it without crashing. On first launch, it brings up the compass calibration — before getting the full circle filled in it crashed — multiple times. I eventually got it to launch, but it decided I was somewhere in Connecticut when I was actually in Boston. I gave 2 stars because it did gave a list of TV stations for Boston, but that’s about it. iPhone 6, iOS 11.4 — feel free to contact me for crash logs as the app shows promise and I am a developer.
