## Review summary

Users praise easy setup, useful diagnostics, and responsive support, with the app effectively enabling signal boosts when it works. However, reliability is the main pain point: frequent crashes, offline mode, constant searching without a connection, a dated UI with limited settings, and poor optimization for newer iPhones. Improvements in stability, offline resilience, clearer status indicators, and iPhone X/XS/XR compatibility would greatly improve the experience.

### Pros

- Easy to connect and quick setup with Cel-Fi hardware.
- Provides useful diagnostics and basic signal statistics for troubleshooting.
- Helpful in fixing issues with boosters and calibrations.
- Responsive Cel-Fi customer support.
- When it works, it effectively boosts weak signals to usable levels.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and the need to reinstall to reconnect.
- App frequently goes offline or fails to connect when it's most needed.
- Constantly searching or failing to find a booster.
- Outdated, cluttered UI with limited settings and overall poor UX.
- Poor compatibility with newer iPhones (iPhone X/XS/XR) and non-optimized layouts.
