From app blogs Methodology explains how they collect data

• Crowd Sourcing (already pointed in comments)

• Monitoring users who installed app continuously

So, the accuracy pretty much depends on how many people use the app with GPS on

• Data Analytics

Also see Cell towers/wifi routers not located correctly which is dated but relevant

This app was recently launched in India and I noticed this

1. Cell towers are very well mapped of a provider, though, in my area tower density is low ( likely because they made it open source as a part of publicity )

2. Cell towers are not well mapped, for another provider, though the tower density is much higher

Not a very dependable app , IMO
