The antenna does help some, don't get me wrong you aren't going to go from no signal to awesome, but it does improve some areas where service was not that great

Antenna for slightly better signal

Bought it mainly for a weekend that I was traveling to a smaller city which made my iPhone have little to no signal. I think, for the most part, I kept 1/5 bars but still had no signal in some areas, even with the ReachAntenna. Not really sure how well it works because I have AT&T and that is the only place I've really had a problem getting a signal. Price is reasonable.

Reach Antenna is always working to strengthen your signal – more than you may realize. It is important to know that you will not always see more “bars” when using Reach Antenna. Oftentimes performance is seen when you have the ability to make and hold calls in areas where you were previously unable to. You may also see better battery life because the phone isn’t having to work as hard to find and hold a signal.
We designed Reach Antennas to be used (1) with a case and (2) also when held in a hand or up against a head. Please give us a call so we can work with you to be sure that you are using the product as we have designed so you too can experience all Reach Antenna has to offer. You can reach us at 1-855-862-4090.

I would stay away from this product. I can't tell whether this thing is working or not and it doesn't seem to be. I feel like it does because Ive seen differences in service in some places but its on such a small scale that its hard to tell whether its this thing or just sheer luck.

We are glad to hear you have seen some improvements in your service with you Reach Antenna. Please be aware that while you may not always see more “bars” on your phone screen, Reach Antenna is always working to strengthen your signal. The reason for this is related to how your phone measures signal strength, and what it takes to give you a full LTE “bar”.
You can have a 2 dB improvement from Reach Antenna (which gives you a 1.5x signal improvement) while still not having the phone show an extra “bar”. A full bar improvement takes 10 dBs, which equals a BIG 10X signal improvement. When using a Reach Antenna performance is often times seen when you have the ability to make and hold calls in areas where you were previously unable to. You may also see better battery life because the phone isn’t having to work as hard to find and hold a signal.
It is important to know that we designed our Reach Antennas to be used (1) with a case and (2) also when held in your hand so how you are using it and what case you have are factors in performance. We would be happy to work with you to help make sure you are experiencing all that Reach Antenna has to offer. Please reach out to us at 1-855-862-4090 so we can answer any questions you may have.

We are happy that you saw improved performance and want to help you understand a bit more about how Reach Antenna is always working to strengthen your signal – more than you may realize. It is important to know that you will not always see more “bars” when using Reach Antenna. Your phone’s signal strength is measured in dB’s, and with the logarithmic (non linear) dB scale you can have a 2 dB improvement (which gives you a 1.5x signal improvement) while still not having the phone show an extra “bar”. This means that often times performance is seen when you have the ability to make and hold calls in areas where you were previously unable to. You may also see better battery life because the phone isn’t having to work as hard to find and hold a signal.
We designed Reach Antennas to be used (1) with a case and (2) also when held in a hand or up against a head. We have tested it extensively and created a video documenting our testing. We would like you to view it as it speaks to your concerns. In the video you will see live data with improved performance in real life situations, as tested by independent third party labs. You can see it at: http://www.reachantenna.com/drivetest

I bought it about a month ago. It does seem to help call quality. It doesn't show in the amount of bars on my phone though.
In addition, it has also started to lose adhesiveness as well. Luckily I have a cover over it so the prevents it from falling off.
Unfortunately I feel like this product could be a gimmick

Thank you for your purchase and review. Please note that nowhere in our marketing materials do we state that Reach Antenna will give you extra “ bars". We state that we strengthen the possibility for greater coverage with up to 1.5X stronger LTE signal strength and we have tested and validated this. It is important to know that your phone’s signal strength is measured in dB’s, and with the logarithmic (non linear) dB scale used for this you can have a 2 dB improvement (which gives you a 1.5x signal improvement) while still not having the phone show an extra “bar”. Often times performance is seen when you have the ability to make and hold calls in areas where you were previously unable to. You may also see better battery life when the phone isn’t having to work as hard to find and hold a signal.
Don’t just take our word for this though. We have tested Reach Antenna with independent labs and validated this as shown in a video we created documenting our testing. We would like you to view it as it speaks to your concerns about performance. In the video you will see live data with improved performance in real life situations, as tested by independent third party labs. You can see it at: http://www.reachantenna.com/drivetest
We would like to work with you regarding your issue with the adhesive so please give us a call. We want to make sure you can experience all Reach Antenna has to offer. You can reach us at 1-855-862-4090.

First of all I thought that for 40+ dollars it would come with a case of some sort like all the pictures show but it doesn't. Even so, I turned on the field mode of my iPhone (where it shows dBm instead of just dots) and saw no improvement in signal.

Easy enough to install. Not sure how much it helps with reception. As others mention you don't see additional bars but my calls seem to be dropped less frequently when I'm in 1 or 2 bar zones. The case with pull out antenna probably works better but I love my Otter case and so the sticker it shall be.

I do not see any increase in cell reception since using this antenna.
Can't complain as the product description claims only an "increase in the potential" for better coverage. For the price it seems to do no harm.

I purchased this product with the hopes of helping of my iPhone 6 dropping calls and/or carrying on conversations only to find out the other party could hear me but I couldn't hear them. It seemed to work fine the first week or so then it went right back to doing what it did before. I have read reviews before I purchased it where some said it worked and vice versa, so thought I would give it a shot.

I was having trouble with a good signal in my home so i purchased this Reach antenna. Before the antenna I had 2 bars of 3G and with the antenna I now have 2 bars of 4G LTE. It obviously allows the data to flow faster and I'm happy with the purchase.
