I like Dish Pointer (pro) by augmented reality. There are others that work nearly as well and others will get you that info. I am not a fan of the Winegard app.
That was a great app. I purchased it @ 2009 or 2010 for $20. Shortly thereafter it became abandonware for a good period, at least 5 years. It was only recently that another entity picked it up and is now apparently supporting it. They will not honor the keys of any previous purchasers of the original developers app, so if your key was locked, say you picked up a new phone, you're dead in the water.
Screw em, Its a principal thing. A great app but not great enough to pay for it twice. Plenty of other free ones that work just as well.
Deinstall License before you get your new phone. Then use your license # on the new phone. If your phone dies before you can deinstall the license you are done unless the new support team reauthorizes it as above.
Exactly, which is BS any way you look at it. That is unless you're one of folks with the crystal ball who knows in advance when your phone id going to shitthe bed, or the date and time when your going to drop it and it gets run over by a truck. IIRC I did deinstall the license, but it would not be accpeted on the new phone and the developers would not answer support emails. This was probably around 2011/12. Their reviews at the app sites were loaded with negative ones at the time, which have now all magically disappeared.
