Extended Telemetry
Enable Extended Telemetry in Unetwork to contribute network measurements and earn rewards from eligible activity. Your device location must match your ULO country.
Reward unlock
Weekly
Tuesday at 00:00 UTC. UPs appear daily at 00:00 UTC.
Eligibility
Country match
Your device location must match your ULO country to generate rewards.
What is Extended Telemetry?
Telemetry reveals network conditions that simulations often miss.
Extended Telemetry is in production: calibration has ended and eligible activity generates rewards. It replaces the retired Telemetry task. Network measurements from real devices help show how connections perform across locations and carriers.
How telemetry works
Get your everyday phone ready to contribute
Follow these four steps to enable Extended Telemetry on a supported version of Unetwork.
- 01
Prepare your device
Use a genuine Android or iOS phone with an active Unetwork licence and the latest app from its official store. Versions earlier than 1.2.2 are unsupported on both platforms. Get one here.
- 02
Enable Extended Telemetry
Update Unetwork, then opt in to Extended Telemetry in Tasks. Keep the app signed in and allowed to run in the background.
- 03
Stay connected
Keep your device powered on and online. Its location must match your ULO country for reward generation.
- 04
Contribute measurements
After you opt in, eligible activity generates UPs. Check daily totals at 00:00 UTC; these rewards unlock weekly on Tuesday at 00:00 UTC.
Use a real connection
- Do not use VPNs to change or hide your network location or IP address.
- Do not use emulators or simulated device environments.
Extended Telemetry rewards
See generated UPs daily. Unlock them weekly.
ULOs and UNOs can see generated UPs every day at 00:00 UTC. Extended Telemetry rewards remain locked during the week and unlock on Tuesday at 00:00 UTC. This weekly unlock applies only to Extended Telemetry, and normal KYC and withdrawal requirements still apply.
What affects rewards
Country eligibility
The device location must match your ULO country. A connected device alone does not establish reward eligibility.
Device uptime
Participating devices receive their applicable share of the IP reward allocation based on uptime.
Shared IP allocation
One IP address has a maximum allocation equivalent to five qualifying devices. Adding more devices does not increase that maximum.
What happens when devices share an IP?
The cap limits the total reward allocation for an IP, not the number of devices that can participate. More than five devices share the same maximum allocation based on uptime.
| Devices on one IP | Reward allocation |
|---|---|
| 5 eligible devices | Each receives its applicable share based on uptime. |
| 10 participating devices | Share the same maximum allocation available to 5 qualifying devices, based on uptime. |
This supports the quality and geographic diversity of network measurements. It does not reward adding more devices to the same connection with a higher total allocation.

Quick answers before you start
Use a genuine device on its normal connection, and keep the Unetwork app signed in and ready to run in the background.
What is Extended Telemetry?
Extended Telemetry is an opt-in background task that collects network measurements from your connected device. Calibration has ended and eligible activity generates rewards. It replaces the retired Telemetry task.
Does Extended Telemetry run automatically?
You must first enable Extended Telemetry. It can then run in the background. Your device location must match your ULO country to qualify for rewards.
When can I withdraw Extended Telemetry rewards?
ULOs and UNOs can see generated UPs daily at 00:00 UTC. They remain locked until Tuesday at 00:00 UTC each week, then become available for withdrawal subject to KYC and withdrawal requirements. This weekly unlock applies only to Extended Telemetry UPs.
Is there a fixed daily reward?
The Extended Telemetry guidance does not specify a fixed per-device daily amount. Eligibility, uptime and the shared IP allocation matter. Check the generated UPs in the app; the retired Telemetry task’s reward range should not be used as an estimate.
Why are my rewards missing or locked?
Check that the app is updated, Extended Telemetry is enabled, your device location matches your ULO country, and the device stays connected. Generated UPs appear daily at 00:00 UTC, not continuously. Visible UPs remain locked until Tuesday at 00:00 UTC. If something still looks wrong, contact support with the device details and the issue you see.
Can I use a VPN or emulator?
No. VPNs, emulators, synthetic devices, and simulated environments reduce data quality and should not be used for telemetry.
Can multiple devices use the same connection?
Yes. Each IP address has a maximum reward allocation equivalent to five qualifying devices. Up to five eligible devices receive their applicable shares based on uptime. Additional devices share that same allocation by uptime: ten devices do not double the maximum reward.
Do I need to keep the app open?
You do not need to keep it on screen. Leave the app installed, signed in, updated and allowed to maintain its background connection.
