Could be useful but…

This app does what it says, but has one flaw. It stops working after about 15 seconds, so you have to keep restarting it. If this is fixed I would give it five stars.
Great app

Was very useful for tuning a Wilson cell booster in our plant but as the other review stated: crashes after 10 - 15 seconds. iPhone 5. I'm sure this will be fixed soon but it served my purpose!
Good yet poor

It is great test of signal strength and does what it says, but after 10 seconds it crashes on me. I think it just needs some code tweaking.
Useless

Absolutely horrible. Crashes at every refresh; can't keep the app open long enough to tinker with settings or find the other screens. Don't waste your time
Crashes after 10 secs !!

I was weary about installing this app after reading all the reviews about it crashing. But TO MAKE IT WORK: all you have to do is disable location services. Under settings > privacy > location services. Toggle the switch to off. Restart the app and it shouldn't crash. At least it didn't for me. I have an iPhone 4 on AT&T btw.
Garbage!

The app crashes after about 10 seconds, every time it is launched! It is for all intents and purposes totally unusable!
