What's New

What’s new in version 2.0.0:

• Complete redesign of the Test feature! Now it features a detailed and animated dashboard layout so you can monitor each phase of the testing (signal, download, and upload) in real time.
• Continuous testing! Now you can launch a test session that will repeat indefinitely until you decide to pause or stop. You can choose basic signal testing, or include richer data speed testing as well. This feature lets you easily contribute your own coverage to the independent, unbiased, crowd-sourced RootMetrics® analysis.

App Description

Join the Crowd and Put Your Carrier’s Coverage to the Test

How does your cell network really perform? Don’t rely on the claims of carriers. Test it for yourself!

With RootMetrics Coverage Map you can:
• Test your data connection speed (even on Wi-Fi)
• Measure your signal strength and see how it compares
• Report problems with your network
• Map your carrier’s true performance and see how many new hexes you can create

Join thousands of other users as we leverage millions of real-world results from the crowd to create an accurate, unbiased map of mobile carrier performance and signal strength.

If your area isn’t covered yet, test it and add your data to the crowd! Check back and see your contribution: results from your testing will be added within 24 hours.

If your carrier isn’t on the comparison chart, don’t worry. You can still test with our app and we’re still collecting your data—as more and more data comes in, we’ll look to expand which carriers are compared. By testing, you’re making a difference.

Explore Intuitive Maps that Compare Coverage at a Glance

Using our sophisticated analytics engine, data is brought to life through easy to understand maps and ratings that show the true picture of each carrier’s performance. Look at coverage from a metro-wide view or all the way down to your street address.

With easy-to-read, interactive maps centered on your location, there’s no need to cross your fingers and simply guess which carrier would be right for you. Cut through the carrier’s marketing claims and find the best network for your location and your unique needs.

Tell Your Friends and Test Frequently

Tell your friends: by spreading the word, you’ll help generate new data so that areas covered on the RootMetrics map spread as well. Watch the maps grow and change as new data comes in.

Test frequently and at different times of the day to refine results and monitor how performance changes. Remember, more testing means a more life-like and up-to-date picture of actual carrier coverage.
