I read about this in the CC magazine this month, it's an app to help get a good signal for the TV.  I have downloaded it, has anyone else?

I downloaded UK Aerial Alignment
and have played with it on my phone, comparing where house aerials are pointing and what my phone tells me with positive results... looking forward to first trip out to test it in the field.

I tried several app's and although they seemed to work (sort of), found them temperamental and varying on accuracy with regards to direction.
In the end, I bought Fringe signal finder which works faultlessly, however I do sometimes refer to the app to confirm suggested signal polarity.

The guy on a pitch next to us last August used the compass on his iphone to align his ariel. He must have checked someones ariel where the picture was good and set his up accordingly.
