iPhone external antenna

I'm occasionally camping in an area in Frontenac, Ont, where cell service coverage is spotty. I'd like to be able to use my iPhone 10, but often can't get a signal, unless I'm up on a hill and not in a forested area. Is there an inexpensive solution that would enable me to get a reliable signal?

Hey there @JODIE,

Welcome to the Community.

Cellular networks are generally focused on population centres and travelled corridors, when traveling in sparsely populated areas, pockets of low to no signal can be experienced. If communication is a need for you a signal booster could be an option.
