I noticed in a setup video for the Starlink Gen 3 that a cellphone app is used to find the best location and pointing direction for the antenna. The video showed someone scanning the sky with their phone while viewing the app. My question is does the phone have to have service for the app to work? Seems like a catch 22 if you need cellphone service to setup your Starlink.
 
No, I have set ours up in dark zones in the west with zero cell coverage for miles.
