Customers appreciate the antenna for its signal strength, ease of use, and improved battery life. The slim size is also a plus for many users, as it doesn't interfere with most phone cases. However, some customers have reported issues with reception and compatibility with certain phone cases. A few customers also felt that the antenna affected the phone's appearance.

It is important to know that while you may not always see more “bars” on your phone screen, Reach Antenna is always working to strengthen your signal. 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 have tested it extensively and created a video documenting our testing which we would like you to view. 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 also like you 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.

bought this because the cell service in my townhouse is pretty terrible. I usually get about one or two bars and for my daughter its even worse since she is on T-Mobile. This did absolutely nothing to improve my cell signal and I returned it the very next day.

Before launching Reach Antenna we rigorously tested it in 3rd party CTIA-authorized labs to validate the results we display on our packaging. It is tested and proven to provide up to 1.5X LTE signal strength improvement. We also conducted 3rd party drive testing to ensure these results occurred in real world situations while moving through different locations. We created a video documenting this testing and 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. You can see it at: http://www.reachantenna.com/drivetest
It is also 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.

I bought this thinking that it would help me out get better signal coverage where I live. But nothing worked at all I even got one less bar when I installed It and wasted my battery faster. And when I tried returning it when I came back from vacation giving it a second chance I missed it by one day. And said there was nothing he can do so I am still stuck with it collecting dust in my drawer.

Bought this as a inexpensive alternative for antenna booster. I would lose signal about a quarter mile from relatives house. Instead of driving down the road every time I needed to use the phone I bought this sticker to improve my t-mobile signal. Installed as instructed but didn't notice any difference and I tried it the whole day while we were running errands all day.

We are glad you like the idea of Reach Antenna. We know how frustrating a weak signal can be and that is why we designed Reach Antenna. The adhesive we use was specifically designed for ease of removal without leaving residue, while maintaining a strong hold when in use. Reach Antenna is designed to work with most cases, but not with cases that contain metal.
If you prefer an alternative to the adhesive antenna we have a newer product called Reach Case that you may want to consider. Reach Case has an extendable antenna and gives you our best signal improvement to date - - up to a 3X stronger LTE signal. Reach Case is available at Best Buy stores and also online.
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 understand the need for a better signal, and that is why we built Reach Antenna. Please know that while you may not always see more “bars” on your phone screen, Reach Antenna is always working to strengthen your signal. 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.
The reason for this is related to how your phone measures signal strength, and what it takes to give you a full “bar”. 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”.
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.

Please be aware that there are a variety of external factors that can affect your signal, and these are in constant fluctuation and beyond what Reach Antenna can control. These can range from the local weather, local terrain, to how many people are nearby on your network. Please know that while you may not always see more “bars” on your phone screen, Reach Antenna is always working to strengthen your signal. 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.
If you are in need of a bigger lift in your signal we do have a newer product called Reach Case that you may want to consider. Reach Case has an extendable antenna and gives you our best signal improvement to date - - up to a 3X stronger LTE signal. Reach Case is available at Best Buy stores and also online.
Should you decide to give us another try we would be happy to work with you to help make sure you experience 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.
