I would like to get a drive going to get more mybb peeps to use OpenSignal app, even if just for a while to get the maps a bit more up to date of where you tend me travel and be most of the time. Do some speed tests etc and let the app run in the background to update the maps a bit more?

NB FOR RAIN USERS: I AM NOT SURE IF RAIN SIMS WORK IN PHONES? IF IT DOES, PLEASE DO A TEST AND LETS SEE WHAT HAPPENS ON OPENSIGNAL APP.

Do I just install the app and you get the info you want, or do I need to do anything special?

Just install the app on your phone via your app store. Not specifically for me. As with crowdsource, it is to the benefit of everyone.

Will there be any benefit if I do a speedtest on my phone over Wifi over Rain 5G connection?
Or is this just for "roaming"?

I don't think running a speed test with your phone on a Rain Wifi connection will be beneficial because the app wont be able to read the tower ID and other stats.
