Abstract: Approaches in accordance with various embodiments can utilize loss of service and call drop information to anticipate connection events between a computing device and a cellular or data network. The utilize loss of service and call drop information is compiled from past connection events from many devices and is utilizes by the computing device to determine areas historically associated with greater connection reliability (or strength of connectivity) upon at least detecting a condition indicative of a connection event. Accordingly, a user can be notified upon entering or moving toward an area associated with poor connection reliability. The user can further be directed to an area associated with greater connection reliability to ensure sufficient network coverage to carry out a phone call.
