To make mobile connectivity
fair and verifiable everywhere.
By turning the gap between what operators claim and what citizens experience into independent, legal-grade evidence that regulators can act on.
To become the world's independent standard for network-coverage truth.
The reference that regulators, operators and institutions cite — built first for the markets that global telcos and Western mapping platforms overlook.
The gap between promised and actual connectivity has never been independently measured.
Over 3 billion people experience a connectivity gap they pay for. Operators self-report coverage. Regulators have no independent mechanism to verify it. MAPFIX captures failure events in dead zones where conventional tools cannot operate at all.
The gap has always existed.
Now it has a record.
These are illustrative examples representative of the kinds of failure events MAPFIX is built to document — across markets, operators and regulators.
The operator says 4G. My phone says no signal. I have been saying this for three years. No one writes it down.
We cannot transfer patient records when we need to. The network simply does not exist where the coverage map says it does.
My farm is twelve miles from town. The operator's coverage checker says full signal. I have one bar on a good day, nothing when it rains.
I lose signal on the same stretch of the M4 every morning. Every morning for four years. Vodafone's map shows continuous coverage the entire route.
My commune is listed as covered. I filed a complaint with ARCEP. They asked me to prove it. I had no way to prove it. MAPFIX is that way.
The operator told the regulator they cover this area. I am in this area. I have no signal. Someone is wrong — and now there is a way to say so.
All testimonials are illustrative examples representative of beta engagement and published connectivity complaint data. Real engagement data is held under confidentiality and submitted only to the relevant regulatory authority. Regulators named (ART, ARTP, ANRTIC, Ofcom, ARCEP) are cited as the relevant jurisdiction authority, not as MAPFIX clients or partners.
MAPFIX is not a speed test. It is not a consumer complaint app. It is not a replacement for the regulator's existing instruments. It is the independent corroborating layer that runs continuously, in every cell of the jurisdiction.
Citizen ping. Offline-safe. Regulator-grade.
No signal needed to report no signal. That is the core technical insight that makes MAPFIX unique.
Citizen taps Ping
One tap. Location rounded to 110m on-device. Works in a dead zone.
Queued offline
SQLite queue holds the report safely. Zero data loss. Syncs when signal returns.
Evidence delivered
Aggregated H3-cell data delivered as signed PDF + JSON to regulators.
Every screen. Every step. Designed for the field.
From first launch to regulator-grade evidence — across all 12 screens.
Choose your language
The first thing the app does is ask what language the citizen speaks. MAPFIX is built for people — not for the markets they live in.
- English, Français, Español, Português — four languages from first launch
- Auto-detects device locale — defaults to French in Francophone Africa
- Every string, every screen, every modal fully translated
Privacy Statement
MAPFIX makes a legal commitment before collecting a single byte. Plain language, fully translated, specifying exactly what is collected — and what never will be.
- UK GDPR Art. 6(1)(f) — legitimate interests — formally documented
- Coordinates truncated to ~110m on-device — raw GPS never transmitted
- ICO registered ZC135494 — prominently displayed
Join MAPFIX
No email. No password. A phone number is how two billion people in MAPFIX's target markets authenticate — from WhatsApp to M-Pesa. Equatorial Guinea pinned first.
- 🇬🇶 Equatorial Guinea pinned as priority #1 — +240 default
- 166 countries total — 15 priority markets, CEMAC first
- OTP verification — no password to remember
- Continue without account — anonymous path always equal
Location permissions
Foreground location only — never background. The screen explains exactly why location is needed and what happens to it.
- Foreground-only — no background tracking ever requested
- Pre-prompt explains H3 anonymisation before system dialog
- iOS one-shot dialog handled with deep-link to Settings
- Continue without location — ping still possible, less accurate
Map filters
The filter bottom sheet slides up from the map. Filter by radio type, failure kind, carrier and date range — AND-combined, persists across app restarts.
- Filter by radio type — 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, WiFi, None
- Filter by failure kind — No signal, Call dropped, Slow data, Intermittent
- Carrier filter populated from real observed data
- Date range presets — Last 24h, 7 days, 30 days, All time

Submit a ping
The most important screen. Light parchment theme for outdoor legibility. GPS truncated on-device before any storage.
- Light theme — readable in direct midday sunlight in Malabo or Yaoundé
- Report queued in SQLite before any network attempt — zero data loss
Ping submitted
The confirmation screen reacts in real time. A queued ping flips to synced the moment connectivity returns — without any navigation.
- Two reactive states — synced (green) and queued offline
- Flips live via SyncCoordinator events — no navigation required
- Detail card confirms exactly what was captured and anonymised
- Submit another or view contributions — both paths immediately available
Home — your contributions
The home screen shows exactly what the citizen has contributed. Real SQLite counts — not estimates.
- Real SQLite counts updated every time screen comes into focus
- Ping FAB disabled when location denied — gold when ready
Browse campaigns
The Yaoundé QoS Audit — your first investor market — is pinned first. Citizens join and contribute pings toward a shared evidence goal.

- Filter by All, Active, Near me, Completed
- Progress bars show pings collected vs target
- Four regions from day one — Africa, Europe, Latin America, Asia
Campaign detail
Every campaign tells a story — who is collecting data, where, why, and what happens to it. The impact statement explains what a citizen's ping will contribute to.
- Full description with regional context and operator target
- Real-time progress bar — pings collected vs campaign target
- Impact statement — what the data achieves and who receives it
- Join button — persists locally, shows confirmation after tapping
Public signal map
Every citizen ping becomes a point on this map. The Delta between operator claimed coverage and citizen reported reality — visualised as a gold hex heatmap.
- MapLibre GL — real geography, dark basemap
- Gold H3 hex clusters — density scaled
- Delta legend — citizen failures vs operator claimed
Settings & data rights
Where MAPFIX makes its legal commitments real and actionable. Language, privacy, data export, DSAR deletion — all in one place.
- Inline language switcher — instant update, no navigation away
- Export data — CSV of all pings + PDF evidence summary
- DSAR deletion — auth-gated, wipes all pings, clears storage
- Device ID displayed — citizen can identify their own data
Pro Dashboard — in development
The PostGIS schema is ready. The moment real pings arrive, these screens have live data.

The trust layer that converts citizen signals into auditable network truth
Regulators cannot act on raw citizen reports alone. MAPFIX proves six things simultaneously — making it the only platform whose evidence stands up in enforcement proceedings.
Cryptographic timestamp. OS-level device attestation. Duplicate detection. The event really happened.
H3 truncation to ~110m. SIM carrier auto-detection. Tower cross-reference. Location and operator confirmed.
Failure type validated against signal strength and conditions. Rules documented and versioned.
Rate limiting per device per H3 cell. Anomaly detection. Sybil resistance. Cannot be manipulated.
On-device H3 truncation. ≥5 pings from ≥3 devices per cell. GDPR by design. ICO ZC135494.
Immutable audit log. Versioned ETL pipeline. Published open methodology. Every indicator linked to a pipeline version.

Regulator-grade evidence. Operator-grade insight.
For regulators
- Independent QoS evidence sourced from citizens — not operators
- Delta between operator claimed coverage and on-the-ground reality By 2030, the same Delta data feeds an adaptive model that projects where coverage will degrade — turning evidence into early warning.
- Formatted PDF evidence summary for enforcement and licensing
- Machine-readable JSON for integration with existing audit systems
- H3 cell-level spatial resolution — sub-kilometre accuracy
For operators
- Investment priority heatmap — where capital improves signal fastest
- Failure density by carrier, by cell, by radio type
- H3 cell drill-down from national view to street level
- Time-series analysis — identify degradation trends early
- Carrier comparison — benchmark performance against competitors
A foundation built to institutional standard.
Every screen. Every test. Every language. Every country.
"The architectural decisions are correct. The gap between now and a public launch is operational, not architectural." — Sojisoft Limited, technical assessment, May 2026
From a single ping to regulatory evidence.
Sixty seconds. One citizen. One tap. The infrastructure of accountability.
Auto-plays when you reach this sectionOne tap.
No signal required.
In a rural connectivity dead zone, a citizen opens MAPFIX. Coordinates are truncated to 110 metres on-device. The report queues in SQLite — zero data loss — and syncs the moment signal returns.
From failure data to infrastructure investment.
Three dashboards. One instrument.
The Delta Index converts a coverage gap into operator revenue risk, regulator enforcement evidence, and investor opportunity — simultaneously.
All figures illustrative — MAPFIX sample data. ARPU at risk = subscribers in gap × monthly ARPU × 12. Assessed against ITU-T E.812. A live engagement produces jurisdiction-specific calculations under signed NDA.
All figures illustrative — MAPFIX sample data. Delta Index = max(0, 100 − gap × 2.2), CSF = 2.2. Citizens affected against Subtel 2025 subscriber data (illustrative). WOM Chile excluded (Chapter 11, April 2024).
All revenue figures illustrative. TAR assumes full operator uptake — actual revenues depend on signed engagements. Not a financial promotion. MAPFIX Ltd · Companies House 17172189 · Companies House 17172189.

Not an app. A decade-long institution.
MAPFIX is built to become the independent standard for network-coverage truth. The product you see today is the first step on a defined path — from a single lighthouse engagement to a measurement standard cited in international reporting.
These are forward-looking objectives, not commitments. The 2028 intelligence and satellite capabilities are part of the planned roadmap, not features available today.
Invest in the infrastructure of accountability.
MAPFIX is raising £1,300,000. The platform is built. Technical delivery partner Sojisoft Limited is contracted and building.
An institution in formation.
MAPFIX is being built in the open — in conversation with the regulators, operators and institutions whose work depends on credible network-coverage measurement.
In active conversation with national telecommunications regulators in the United Kingdom and across the CEMAC region regarding independent, citizen-sourced QoS evidence.
The MAPFIX Delta Index methodology is published and versioned — aligned to ITU-T E.812 and the BEREC Crowdsourced QoS Framework, and open for peer review.
