ARE you plagued with terrible mobile phone signal in your area?<\/p>\n

Well, experts at UberSignal, a service booster and amplifier retailer, have suggested two tricks that can boost your signal without having to step outside and wave your handset around. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

"With so much of our everyday life relying on our cell phone, things like weak signal, dropped calls or slow data speeds can have a major impact," experts wrote in a blog earlier this year.<\/p>\n

"Fortunately, there are a number of things that you can do to improve your cell signal for clear calls and fast data speeds."<\/p>\n

Turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth<\/h2>\n

Turning off any services you\u2019re not currently using can immediately boost your service, according to UberSignal. <\/p>\n

"Services like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and\u00a0Near-Field Communication (NFC)\u00a0can sometimes cause problems by either trying to send your calls and data over a different service or allowing other devices to use up bandwidth that is needed for fast data or clear calls," experts wrote. <\/p>\n

Update your software<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Like with most technical issues, updating the device can often solve it. <\/p>\n

"Those updates are what tell your phone what towers to connect to. <\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

"Ideally, you should always update, but if you haven\u2019t recently, then you should check now whether you need to."<\/p>\n

Bonus trick<\/h2>\n

If it's an urgent call you're trying to make – or not miss – you should try using Wi-Fi calling instead. <\/p>\n

Every smartphone will have this capability. <\/p>\n

For example, all calls made on WhatsApp are done via the internet. <\/p>\n

"While not technically a method to improve your cell signal, making calls and using data over Wi-Fi is one way to maintain contact with the outside world when there is no cell signal available for you to improve," experts added. <\/p>\n
