About Unetwork
What is Unetwork?
Unetwork turns everyday smartphones into real-world telecom testing devices.
Built by Minutes Network, Unetwork helps telecom and infrastructure partners understand how mobile networks perform across real phones, carriers, and locations.
In plain terms Real phones testing real mobile networks.
Devices complete approved network tasks through the app. Operators receive UPs when work is successfully validated.
How Unetwork works
Real phones connected to real mobile networks generate the data telecom companies need.
Phones run network tasks
The Unetwork app allows smartphones to perform telecom verification tasks such as connectivity checks, routing validation, caller ID testing, and network performance measurements.
Telecom companies use the data
Mobile operators and infrastructure providers need accurate information about how their networks behave in real-world conditions across different countries, carriers, and devices.
Operators receive rewards
When a device successfully completes approved tasks, the operator receives UPs rewards. Some tasks run automatically in the background, while others may occasionally require simple interaction.
Why Unity Network became Unetwork
Unity Network officially changed its name to Unetwork to avoid confusion with Unity Technologies, the company behind the Unity game engine. The similarity in names made it difficult for people to find accurate information about the telecom network and app.
The rebrand only changed the name and branding. Existing licenses, operator accounts, rewards, lease codes, and app functionality all continue normally under the new Unetwork name.
The move also gave the project a clearer standalone identity as the network expanded through telecom and infrastructure partnerships.
How Unetwork creates value
Telecom companies need accurate information about how networks behave in real-world conditions. Unetwork uses everyday smartphones to provide that visibility at global scale.
Expensive, limited, and slow to scale
- Relies on specialized equipment
- Uses temporary field campaigns
- Limited geographic coverage
- Slow to adapt to changing network conditions
Continuous real-world network visibility
- Uses thousands of everyday smartphones
- Operates across live mobile networks
- Collects continuously updated field data
- Reflects actual user network conditions
Instead of relying on a small number of dedicated testing systems, the network uses real devices already connected to carriers around the world. This creates a continuous stream of real-world telecom data based on how networks actually perform for everyday users.
Current network footprint
40,000+ devices
170+ countries
1,500+ cities
Use cases Where Unetwork data is useful
Carrier verification
Measure signal quality, routing behavior, and connectivity conditions across live mobile networks.
App performance testing
Test how websites and applications behave on real carriers, devices, and regional mobile networks.
Regional network analysis
Monitor network behavior in specific cities, countries, or telecom environments using live field data.
Infrastructure validation
Validate real-device performance instead of relying only on simulations, cloud servers, or lab testing.
Tasks are distributed based on location, carrier availability, and connectivity requirements. Devices that stay online consistently and provide reliable results are generally more valuable to the network over time.
Real smartphones. Real carriers. Real-world network conditions.
That infrastructure is difficult to replicate at global scale.How Unetwork licenses work
A license allows a smartphone to participate in the Unetwork task system and receive approved network work.
Hold groups of licenses and can operate them directly or share them with operators across different locations.
Run licenses on smartphones using the Unetwork app and complete network verification tasks.
- Node owner holds licenses
- Licenses assigned to operators
- Operators run tasks on phones
- Rewards generated from completed work
Each phone running the Unetwork app requires an active license before it can begin receiving telecom and network verification tasks.
A single node can contain multiple licenses that are either operated directly by the owner or distributed across different operators and regions. This structure allows the network to expand globally without requiring every participant to manage large infrastructure setups themselves.
Rewards depend on completed work, device reliability, network quality, task availability, and validation requirements.
How operators and node owners work together
Shared licensing allows the network to expand across more countries, carriers, and mobile environments without requiring node owners to operate every device themselves.
Operators in different countries can run licenses on their own smartphones and contribute local network data in regions where telecom demand and task availability are active.
When a license is shared with an operator, rewards from completed tasks are automatically distributed based on the selected split.
| Operator split | Operator receives | Node owner receives |
|---|---|---|
| 50 / 50 | 50% | 50% |
| 60 / 40 | 60% | 40% |
| 70 / 30 | 70% | 30% |
| 75 / 25 | 75% | 25% |
| 80 / 20 | 80% | 20% |
This system distributes licenses across more real devices, carriers, and geographic regions, improving network coverage and increasing the usefulness of the platform for telecom and infrastructure testing.
What affects Unetwork rewards
Rewards are generated when devices successfully complete approved network tasks through the Unetwork app.
At current task levels, individual licenses typically generate modest monthly rewards. Results vary by region, carrier availability, device uptime, network quality, and the task types currently active on the network.
Some tasks run automatically in the background, while others may occasionally require simple interaction from the operator. Devices that stay online consistently and complete tasks reliably are generally more valuable over time.
Region and carrier
Task availability depends heavily on country, carrier coverage, and local telecom demand.
Device uptime
Phones that remain connected for longer periods are more likely to receive and complete tasks.
Network quality
Stable connectivity, valid task results, and reliable device performance all affect rewards.
Reality check
Unetwork should be viewed as a growing infrastructure network rather than a guaranteed income source. Rewards depend on real task demand and the value of the data devices provide to the network.
