Useless

Couldn’t find any transmitters with 70miles and yet I can set one from where I am

Not Usable

The app works fine for identifying local antennas. But when you try to punch in to get a closer look at the antennas, it immediately snaps back to full screen view. Makes it impossible to use.

Please fix the zoom

Useful if I could actually zoom in on the map without it zooming out automatically after a couple seconds. Should be possible to make this improvement.

Zoom doesn’t work

As others have said. Zoom doesn’t work. It will automatically reset to the full view.

Doesn’t understand directions

The compass within the app inaccurate by 90-180 degrees. Recommending the opposite positioning for the antenna.

Would not recommend.

How do I use Antenna Point to find channels?

The app identifies your location and shows nearby transmitting towers. You can then use the map and coverage patterns to determine the best direction to aim your antenna. After aiming, connect your antenna to your TV and perform a channel scan.

Is Antenna Point free to use?
