Verizon and ATT subscribers we are! It's probably the worst area for cellphone reception in Lower Michigan. Just follow your eyes and nose thru the areas showing the Huron National Forest / Mio areas, and a little north and south of that, when looking at cellphone reception strength maps online. If it's inside a mid-sized town like Mio where population is heavier, then reception is available. But minutes outside of Mio and the signal starts to weaken. Lots of little towns where there's nothing, depending on elevation.......etc.

You must have a 1st class smartphone.... probably an Apple. But in case you don;t know this, over 70% of America is still NOT beyond 3G phones yet Alleyyooper. I think over 50% of Amerrica still don't use a smartphone. SeniorCitizen America is still pretty big in this country and many know very little about computers, ***********......etc.

Sure I can walk 200 yards to a woodshed, once in a while and find a perfect spot for reception. Or drive 12 miles to reach a top of the hill to talk. But in the Area forests there..... no way! We also drive vehicles over 10 years old. We aren't like you alleyyooper, with built-in bluetooth in your 30+K vehicle.
