Network Cell Info & Wifi is temporarily FREE on Google Play

[andyk88]

How I usually keep/own a temporarily free app on Google Play:

• In the Play Store app, tap on name (first letter) > Manage apps & device > Updates/All apps up to date (whatever the second field is)
• https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...lysis.cellinfo > Install
• Hit X on the phone to cancel download.

Which app to use is a personal preference, but the "Contains Ads" version has 5,000,000+ Installs.

I usually use SignalCheck Lite: Shows LTE band, but no 5G info.

Recently I tried NetMonster: No ads, strange cell site locations.

Thanks for posting this! Just to clarify, of the apps you listed, do you recommend Network Cell Info & Wifi, which is temporarily FREE on Google Play?

Sorry about the confusion, I was not making a recommendation for or against it.

I just wanted to share that it is temporarily free, so might as well get it so it is available when one wants to try apps like it the next time.

I usually won't consider an app that "Contains Ads".

It's still free as of May 25.

I found two apps, the currently-free one has a "Lite" in its name. The paid one is $1.99. The difference seems to be that the Lite app contains ads while the paid one doesn't.

I usually just ignore the ads in the KAIBITS' Network Signal Info app that I have used. Free trumps everything for me
