Winegard app

Anybody use the Winegard app on their phone for aiming the over air antenna? How has your experience been using it?
I just got around to replacing my broken Winegard Razor over air antenna (it's been broken for 2 seasons). Haven't needed the over air much since the parks we have been visiting mostly have cable. We intend to hit the road for extended periods this season and thought the over air antenna might be needed.

The short answer is “yes, I use it, it’s on my IPhone”

That said I primarily use it for DISHnet satellites in the sky
I rarely have used it for the OTA King antenna

In most areas we frequent, all of the OTA antennas are in the same general direction.
So once you establish that fact, you are 90% there.

Not sure about the Winegard app channel guide for OTA.

The best OTA antenna pointer I have found is called "Antenna Point"

Simple, does the job, and no obnoxious ads.
