App for finding your cell tower?

[terryh215]

I'm with Verizon and they just turned on a new tower in my area and i would like to know where it is. Are there any apps out there that can do this? I tried Open Signal but I was waiting 30 mins for it to locate it and it never did

Try one of these apps:

Another one to have a look at is Network Signal Info https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ls?id=de.android.telnet2&hl=en&token=KDVgxaWO - there's also a free version https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ils?id=de.android.telnet&hl=en&token=LMj48_Sd It claims a database of 22 million cell towers. It certainly finds the ones near me in Sydney and maps them nicely.

I know this is an old string but I just noticed that my Network Cell Info Lite (v. 4.21.1) reports our nearest Verizon tower 3 miles to the ESE when actually it's to the ENE of us. That's just wrong.
