Description
Winegard® creates connectivity while at home, tailgating, trucking, or RVing by helping you view your favorite shows with this smart TV Signal Finder app with augmented reality. 

Finding the available TV satellites and free over-the-air HDTV towers for your geographic location has never been easier. The smart Winegard TV Signal Finder app makes it simple to determine the correct position of your antenna to receive the available signals. This app uses your current location to search for the available signals for your favorite channels. Avoid obstructions with the augmented reality (AR) view. 

Dual-mode app allows you to find free HDTV TV Towers with the Antenna Pointer mode or to locate TV satellites per provider with the Satellite Pointer mode:

-	Antenna Pointer - Use the top-down map view to locate all HDTV TV towers closest to your address or GPS location. Eliminate signal obstructions such as trees, hills, and buildings by switching to the AR view. Simply point your phone to the horizon and rotate 360 degrees to bring into view your desired TV tower and find the best angle to point your antenna. The number displayed above a tower indicates the number of channels available. Tap the tower icon to see full channel details.
-	Satellite Pointer - Use the AR view to locate DISH, DIRECTV, BellTV, or Shaw Direct satellites available for your mobile antenna. Simply point your phone at the southern sky to locate your target satellites and stay clear of signal obstructions such as trees and buildings. Azimuth and elevation pointing look angles are provided for easy pointing and setup of manual antennas.

Features:
-	Augmented reality technology
-	Compatible with auto-point or manual-point antennas
-	Compatible with DISH, DIRECTV, BellTV, and Shaw Direct antennas
-	Satellite azimuth and elevation pointing look angles
-	Current FCC OTA TV tower information, channels, call signs, networks
-	Distance to HDTV towers

This app requires the use of the camera (for augmented reality view), sensors, GPS, and compass in your smartphone. Compass accuracy is based on calibration and distance from large objects that may cause magnetic interference.

Antennae Pointer doesn’t work

Clicking Antenna Pointer doesn’t result in any action whatsoever. Deleted the app and reinstalled, same result, nothing!

Useless

This app is completely useless. None of the stations have their heading listed. It seems like Winegard is trying to sell me an antenna instead of telling me where to point it. They should remove this app from the store, as it provides zero value.

Used to work

I’ve used this app for about a year and when I went to locate any Sats the app now crashes. I can’t even click on settings and it crashes. I use an Apple phone. I’ve tried deleting the app reinstalling etc. Nothing. Time to delete and move to something more reliable
