Worked on first opening but after closing it and reopening it later it just closes when you press on an antenna.

Wow! Works great! I live in my motorhome and move around a fair bit. This app helped me receive 12 TV stations whereas without it, I could only find 3. Great! Also, I can look at the map, tap on a transmitter, and see the coverage area!!! Very cool!

This is no nonsense tv antenna pointer. After using a compass to set several antennas up I can tell you this is on the money, but a lot easier to deal with. I wish it had stations up to 100 miles away considering the one I have in my attic receives them with no problem.

Totally unstable on Samsung S10. Displays top of list then crashes if you touch the screen. I guess it is just about sufficient if you can see the transmitter you want without scrolling.

Hopeless, worked once and then froze and shut down on S10+ Also will not let me uninstall.

Open it for first time, fine, so long as you don't try to change preferences or, for that matter, touch it again - anywhere. It instantly crashes, every time. Therefore, utterly useless. Maddening, and such a shame.

About this app

Aiming your TV antenna is easy and free!

This application helps you discover digital TV towers (DTV) near your location and it helps you find the bearing from your location so that you can point you antenna to catch those stations. It works based on a list of antennas broadcasting digital TV over-the-air (OTA) in the United States, Australia, Canada, United Kingdom, New Zealand, Austria, Argentina, Brazil, Portugal, Colombia, Uruguay and Paraguay.

For users in the US, it can also display the FCC calculated broadcast area over the map!

This app is especially useful for campers and travelers using camper vans, RVs, or motorhomes, ensuring you get the best TV reception wherever you are.

Be aware that compasses in phones are not very good and they are often wrong or get stuck. That cannot be corrected from a software application such as this one. Sometimes it's useful to “calibrate” the devices's compass by performing movements with the phone describing an "8".

For now this helper is just for United States, Australia, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand, Argentina Brazil, Colombia and Uruguay.
