Signal Alert App Reviews

36 add

Thank you for the quick response. It is fixed.

I updated to the new version. The app stopped running in background mode, I forgot to turn on Location Services Setting. Thanks! its working fine now.

Like it but thats it?

So much more you can do in here. Like have history log of when and where you lost signal in a way creating a map of good/bad cell areas, that could also be uploaded and shared with community. My issue is why not show both cell and wifi and not one or the other, its not like we can easily make calls, receive SMS over the wifi connection.

Audible battery warning. A++

Love the new battery warning. iphone never goes black again.

If your on wifi you cant tell if you lost service!

If your on wifi you dont get notified if you lost cell service! I like the idea but I get terrible service at my house and always miss calls that is why I bought this app. That works just fine unless you are on wifi then you do not get notified if your cell service is gone. It only focuses on the data and not the cell signal. I wish I didnt pay for this app. I would give 5 if I was notified of my signal loss even when on wifi but I cant recommend it until this flaw is changed.

Good idea needs work

This has a potential to be very useful. It is working almost as described but in present state does not report always correctly and has limited functionality . I am looking for an update hopefully soon. Reporting is sometimes incorrect: tracks data only. When I turn off wifi and 3G it says "no coverage" but I still could make and receive calls on EDGE. Does not recognize EDGE. Needs more coherent reporting Needs a log. What is the point of reporting coordinates when there is no log? Just to waist power on GPS? - needs to be able to mail the log. Needs ability to select alert sound. I would like to select different alerts per case.

Fair

Fair app does not work as described ESP running in background does not work.

Limited Functionality

This app has very limited functionality! Have a feeling I shouldnt have bought this. Will it still notify you of signal loss if you kill the app?

Massive battery drain

This application works well except for the fact that it massively drains your battery. Fix this and would be a great app.

Refund please..

Really want a refund, this was not intentionally purchased and I dont see the necessity in this app.

Great app

Great app no complaints

Good/Bad

Well, it does the thing I most need it to do—notify me when the dodgy wifi where I work drops out so I dont incur overage charges. Its worth the 99 cents for that alone. But it doesnt play well with iOS 8 (I dont think its been updated since iOS 4). None of the toggle switches work. None of the buttons work. Its just a brute force signal notification app at this point. Too bad, too. It would be nice to be able to log the wifi outages (one of the apps ostensible features). If you need it to notify you of wifi outages, this is the app for you. Just dont expect it to do anything else (including most of what it claims to do).

Crap!

Although one person has said it works for alerting wifi outage, so far it does crap! Supposed to run in the background and pop up and alert but so far, it only works if I select the app and bring it up...waste of $.99

Nice app!!

Cant find a way to get support!! App goes to homepage of author, but only info on apps, cant contact author. Also, should be an option for more sounds and running in the background using GPS, may use data, which is counterintuitive. I have unlimited, so to me its not an option.... It does work as stated.

cant customize battery alert

I bought this app solely for the low-battery alert, and was disappointed that I could not configure the battery levels that trigger alerts. All I want is a 5 or 10 percent alert, not the 30 or 50 percent.

Reports WiFi SIGNAL loss NOT loss of connection to internet

I wanted an app that told me when I lost connection to Internet over WiFi, like when you have to re-login at a hotel or airport. This apt reports WiFi signal loss, not connectivity loss.

Does what it says

This is a good little utility for notifying me when my phone sneakily switches off the wifi mode. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because the app must be kept running in the tray.
