Description

Sometimes you need to move to a place with better signal. Often this is in a car, and the five bars of signal display is small if you're trying to drive and see if you have the two or three bars needed to successfully place a call that won't drop. This app takes those same bars on your status bar and makes them the size of the whole screen.

This app does not magically increase your signal strength. It shows the same information you have, only 100 times larger.

This app was developed for use in rally race cars. Between racing stages on the transits, the race teams often want to contact their crew to give them info on repairs needed. Travelling down a bouncy dirt road watching for when you have enough bars to get a text out is difficult.

Permissions:
Note that in order to get your signal strength, the software has to ask the phone for the data from the cell phone chip. This comes all as one bundle which includes the cell tower information, which means that one could in theory (although this app doesn't) figure out roughly where the user is if you had some other master list of all cell tower locations. Because of this, the app needs the "Coarse_Location" permission to function.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

1 ★way too big. drop it down a bit. a 1x1 widget size you can move around would be perfect. can you do that? that way it won't block out the rest of your home screen. thx.
