MOBILE COVERAGE CHECKER
Helping you to check mobile coverage and performance in your local area.
You shouldn’t have to guess how good your connection is.
Our Mobile Coverage Checker, developed in partnership with street asset company Inaklum, reveals how mobile networks really perform in practice. Covering all four major operators, and using real-world data from thousands of streets in Manchester, it provides one of the most detailed views of mobile connectivity in the UK.
Compare signal and performance across providers, see how it changes throughout the day, and make more informed choices about the connectivity you rely on.

Our Mobile Coverage Checker is built on over 2 million real-world data points, captured by sensors attached to Biffa’s fleet of bin lorries over a four-week period.By using data based on actual signal strength and quality, we can offer a more accurate and reliable picture of how connectivity is actually experienced in the city.
