Police Scanner Radio & Fire for Positive User Reviews
✓ 10/10Shame it’s not live. ...Version: 1.8.5
✓ Great appGood app, well laid out and easy to use. Was very useful last week during the bushfires, and no doubt will be in the future - though keep in mind not all fire services across all states are on here... so check that out before paying for the pro features..Version: 1.7.10
✓ If I could give it 5 stars I wouldI absolutely love this app, it’s super informative and interesting to listen to different events across the world. That being said, it could use some improvements. The biggest I could see helping the app would be furthering the range of options for the ‘What’s happening right now?’ button. This could help attract users to the different channels when something happens. Another thought would be to add a transcript of the radio traffic in the large empty space in the center of the UI, sometimes the output or input is fuzzy but having a transcript could help listeners understand the situation better. That being said, the app is great and I applaud whoever created it- I would highly recommend this app over others on the market..Version: 1.10.2
✓ Police pro scannerAwesome app,loads of choice, clear channels, keep up the good work, well done ..Version: 1.1
✓ Get over the ads!They are ads, get over it. You click the scanner you want, and it loads. You get out of the app and you can listen all day long. Heaven forbid you have to see one or two ads. Would you rather the app just got taken off the App Store? This is the Be app ever. So simple and the most accurate. Wish you could select specific channels (like which specific police dpt or fire dpt within the county) that way you don’t hear only parts of the transmissions, but I’m sure that is due to who is broadcasting. Thanks for the great app!!.Version: 1.5.3
✓ LoveeeeI love how if I’m in very heavy traffic I can put it on and the county I’m in. To then find out how serious of a car accident is ahead to mentally prepare for the long wait. I also love how there’s a sleep timer cuz I like listening before bed because night time is when a lot of things go down. It also helps to show you what different calls our police officers take and all that they do. Even if the call isn’t serious they still make it to the place there called.Version: 2.2.1
✓ Great AppThis a a great app for a scanner.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Great butIs this legal in the uk?.Version: 1.7.19
✓ EmergenciesImportant to know about any Fires in my area or criminal activity..Version: 2.0.5
✓ Addicted hobby ear wigging on police scannerAmazing fun and intel on public safety defence force, police, ambos, fire and many other johnrea to tap into and learning and hearing spoken codes I have a great time unravelling decoded encrypting despatchs call signals, love it and perfect tool for today’s troubled world in society and communities around my living quarters and places..Version: 1.7.15
✓ Scanner Radio overviewFast access into breaking news national headline stories from the front lines. When you listen to alerts, you have a front row seat as police arrive and set up perimeters and search. You’ll hear them discuss how to deal with media and where to set up news interview posts and how the strategically plan to search for shooters. I was alerted to the tragic shootings in Las Vegas, Pittsburgh and at the country dance hall in Northern California. I over heard a pilot of a major airline on landing approach to Tampa International airport radio the control tower that he “just hit birds.” Excellent quality overall but depends on the monitoring source..Version: 1.5.4
✓ Actually is so goodStory time: My and my friend were going somewhere at 10:30pm last night. We see 7 cop cars in the span of 3 minutes. All lights and sirens on, all speeding to one direction. My friend pulled up this app and we figured out they’re all looking for this felon. They were chasing him and lost track when he/she car drove on the wrong side of the road. It felt surreal, we were so hyped. When we got to our destination which was in the area we listened in the car for about 10 minutes lol.Version: 1.10.7
✓ RFS appA must for everyone in a possible fire zone. Great to hear how our firefighting heroes get on with the task calmly and competently ...... very reassuring..Version: 1.7.13
✓ 5 StarsI have used this scanner for a long time. It used to have issues but they’ve fixed it. It’s worked fine for a couple of years. I love it. No other scanner I have found can compare to this one. And that’s without the Pro version. Idk what Pro has to offer that’s different. One thing I’d like to see is a chat for the scanner. Idk if that’s possible, but it would be great if we could communicate with people who are also listening, and who might be in the area. A lot of us are True Crime reporters..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Variety of scanners, always something interesting to listen toReally love this app, never had a problem with it in all the years I’ve used it, even across different models of iPhone and iPad. Custom alerts are handy if something happens and you want to be informed. Always something to listen to, I often pop it on just to listen to something “live” whether it’s aircraft Stateside or a marine channel. 😊.Version: 1.7.1
✓ ReviewNew to it. Seems great. Clear reception.Version: 1.7.6
✓ AwesomeGreat app! clear reception and many different locations to listen too !!!!.Version: 1.10.9
✓ StuckKeeping me up to date can not get home worried about my daughter and grandchildren on little forest Rd.Version: 1.7.10
✓ Essential AppThis app is essential for me as I do animal rescue and go into lots of shady neighborhoods. I like to know what’s going on around me. Plus, in this day and age, every driver should know what’s going on. I’ve been able to avoid shootings and car chases because of this app. If the channels you listen to are garbled it’s not the apps fault as most of the time it’s the individual who’s providing the feed. And if you don’t like ads, pay the developer for their work. Nothing comes free in this world that’s worth anything. They aren’t just developing these apps to give you free jollies..Version: 2.2.1
✓ USA 911 services really realAwsome.Version: 1.10.4
✓ Lovd this appI have used this add since it came out. I always listened to the Chicago district 10 scanner and apparently somethings up with it. I dont know if it the app or the scanner itself, in any case I still have many scanners to listen to. I absolutely love the alert option, I just wish you could maybe turn off some alerts like fire alerts. I get so many of those I thinking of not using that feature. So maybe being able to turn on or off alerts. Just a thought. Other then that I love it..Version: 1.7.14
✓ Essential during bushfiresWe could not have survived through the 2020 bushfires without this scanner. It helped us make decisions and be safe..Version: 1.7.14
✓ Works very wellI use it for my volunteer fire fighter role when I don’t have access to my vehicle radio or portable. It is only limited by the upload..Version: 1.7.12
✓ Fires Nsw AustraliaAllowing us to stay informed as to the risks around us. Thank you..Version: 1.7.12
✓ Can’t turn off ads againI understand adds but I want to end them at some time Someone is hiding the actual pixel to hit the “ x “ And the app stops the radio until it stops having the adds up Also I read the review from the vet He says he only gives 4 star ratings Yet graphic shows 5 star rating I hope that this is real vet review Because this could be stolen valor if some is making money from this review I still like the app it’s a good way to stay out of the police and firefighters doing their jobs and let me know what’s happening in my area.Version: 2.2.18
✓ Great app need radio in PEI CanadaI really like this app and think it’s cool! Can you guys add some emergency radios for PEI that would be absolutely amazing!!.Version: 2.2.24
✓ RadioHi keeping you updated with what’s happening.Version: 2.2.1
✓ Terrible Distracting Ads Deliberately Interferes AppDuring these times it’s important to keep up with what’s going on in your community. For this reason I downloaded the app. The app does what it’s supposed to when you’re finally able to get at it. But lately ads layer over on top of the app - over and over and over - no matter how many times you try to close them and start the free app. On top of that clicking close often leads you OUT of the app and into the App Store. Once you actually get to the app it’s great. There are many fine features and includes aids. But this kind of advertising behavior should not be allowed..Version: 1.7.19
✓ ExcellentUsed this app for many years and found it to be reliable and stable..Version: 1.6.1
✓ To the cfaAs a x cfa firefighters i to keep in touch I like the way they all work together , I still love hearing Bayswater tuning out lov you all keep the good work up ,,,.Version: 1.10.9
✓ Good but needs 2 things.I like how i can listen to this to keep safe. I am feom joliet illinois. So i like this and am learning more about this. I have 2 suggestions however, one a mild complaint. First and formost, the kinda complaint, at times i will try to listen on a Soundcore wireless bluetooth speaker, and even tho my device connects whileusing this app, the audio dont go thru unless i disconnect, make it work on bluetooth speakers pretty please. As for my suggestion, i dint get my county on the radio listenings. I get the entire region (im in joliet, so according to the info, ill get joliet crest hill frankfort rockdale, i would like to see a way to switch in between stations within that station (my station is chicago suburbs south, so it would be cool if i could tune into Joliet, then swap over to JUST romeoville area, then tune into rockdale, or just have the option to have them all come thru in one channel as they do now. For context, in chicago suburbs there Re like 15 police departments all broadcasting in one channel).Version: 2.2.22
✓ Very inconsistentWhenever Police cars whiz by my home, I immediately log on to this scanner app to try to learn what’s happening. Then..... crickets. No talking, no chatter. Just silence and an occasional check in from a remote location. Maybe I don’t know exactly how this app is supposed to work? But it’s not for keeping up with current events in the town. (Feel free to educate me on the purpose of the app and I’ll be happy to remove this rating!) UPDATE: 9/2. the app provider gave me the broadcast location to solicit feedback. I’ll send them a note directly and see if I can make progress. Upgraded to 4 stars for the kind customer service.Version: 1.8.3
✓ AwesomeThis has been a very handy app here locally over the last few years with major bush fires and flooding.Version: 2.2.6
✓ Found my feed.Did an update on the app and lost my feed. Had to do some searching but have found it again. Added some stars to this app..Version: 2.1.1
✓ The best by a mileThis thing has book marking functions, clear quality signals, lots of choice and rated channels for ease of finding something worth a listen and study. Timer functions and plenty of settings. Alerts etc. More control the better! Love this little app! Would pay 50p then when I know it’s it is as good as it is I’d pay a pound maybe £1.50 :-) but also things that are nicely priced just add to the enjoyment of it all X.Version: 1.10.6
✓ Not working nowPlease fix the app.Version: 1.6.2
✓ AmazingHear stuff from all over the place..Version: 2.2.20
✓ Wollombi/Laguna/Paynes Crossing FiresExcellent resource as we evacuated our property due to surrounding bush fire activity in the Lower Hunter Valley, NSW, Australia. Heartening to hear fire truck comms in the area. They are heroes. The fires are massive..Version: 1.7.10
✓ Excellent!Fantastic for keeping up to date with the bushfire emergencies, especially when the fires near me app is not working.Version: 1.7.10
✓ Peace of mindLove being able to listen in and occasionally hear my partners voice or father in law talking away. It’s a good way to relax when they are out fighting fires. Good for families, should be advertised so people know this exists..Version: 1.7.11
✓ Police scanner~brief reviewThe San Mateo Law Enforcement frequency on this scanner is a great way to stay informed in nearly real-time communication of the events that transpire outside our walls and in the community 24/7 that are handled by the Men & Women charged with safety. crime prevention and so much more. It doesn’t take too long to learn the codes and phonetic alphabet so understanding what is happening outside, becomes like looking through a window at what life’s drama impacts so many lives being played out in our streets. It can be tragic, sad, comical and most of all it is the reality of the on duty professional voices, those Officers whom face fearlessly into the abyss everyday. It can become addicting and I love it. Randy Chavez.Version: 1.5.6
✓ I too purchased this app...*Edited* went back & found my receipt. It was the same app but the name was scanner911 so the name has changed. That's why it won't find out past purchases I love this application and paid for the full upgrade years ago specify for the option to get notifications when "so" many people were listening at once. It wants me to pay again. I'm confused that you say there was never an option to upgrade. Are you the original developer or did you aquire it?.Version: 1.5.6
✓ Nice backgroundCool to listen to in the background. I like the updates when scrolling through different stations where it shows active situations. Makes it easier to find the juicy stuff.Version: 2.0.8
✓ SoundAmplifier add now sound is garbage.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Peace of mindTo know if the fire is in your area.Version: 1.7.10
✓ Good intentionsThis is a great way to stay out of way of police looking after situations, so then they can do their job properly.Version: 2.2.18
✓ Listen upRetired U S Air Force aircraft maintenance technician have several radios amateur radio equipment license trained weather spotter private pilot license in progress while watching and monitoring weather on my computer radars this scanner allows for listening monitor the area first responders and what is happening in real time in the affected area tornadoes flooding and all other weather events then the aviation bands marine bands and even railroads have used this scanner 30 minutes after getting it and it is fantastic has everything of interest to me.Version: 2.2.4
✓ ListeningThis is a great app. You can listen to fire and emergency services here in parts of Australia and also parts of America..Version: 1.7.10
✓ Great appJust what is needed in an emergency suggest buying the pro version on one appliance GREAT APP.Version: 1.7.10
✓ .Is this legal in the uk.Version: 1.7.20
✓ Still the best but wish I could test the themesOut of all the scanner applications I have tried this one is still the best. A big thank you to the developer for making the recent updates. I chose to purchase the option to remove ads once it became available and now I see there is also an option to purchase the ability to change the theme. I do wish there was a way that we could try the themes before we commit to the purchase. I am visually impaired and believe the black theme may be of benefit but don’t want to waste the money if it does not end up being that way. Even if only a 24 hour test run it would be nice..Version: 1.7
✓ ReviewIt’s good listening to all the stuff on there. Specially when there’s stuff going on around your area so you know what’s happening.Version: 2.2.12
✓ JoshVery informative over standard sources of information.Version: 1.7.14
✓ Thank You!This app allows people to follow the happenings in their own neighborhood … as well as demonstrating the skills of the personnel , who work hard to keep the public safe! A special ‘shout out’ to Monroe, MIichigan’s amazing emergency team! Thank you to our awesome dispatch team , the police depts., fire depts., and paramedics for protecting each other, as well as the people in our communities! It is clearly because of these skilled employees, and their excellent teamwork abilities, that allows them to provide such great service to our communities! Thanks to this app for allowing us to see just how very hard these men and women work every day!.Version: 1.10.7
✓ UPDATE : Features Working! my goto AppBack in May I talked about the app stopping working. I never could get the alerts to work. Eventually Gordon the developer and I began emailing (he’s extremely responsive!) and eventually I deleted and re-downloaded the app over the course of a month or so along with some troubleshooting. The latest download cleared the problem on my IPhoneX. This may very well have been a corrupted file on my own device all along. Regardless. Can’t recommend this enough. Great app and great support! Earlier post from May: For years this was my go to app. Having come from first law enforcement and now own a media company for past 15 years. This would always notify me of something happening anywhere in the country if the listeners met a certain threshold. It no longer does that as before. You can manually go in and look. But it’s not automatic. Still decent for manual listening. But the loss of auto notify is a big disappointment..Version: 1.7
✓ Unbiased ReviewI love this app as it helps me get to learn what is going on around me. I like how the app is and that is stays on 24/7. However, I wish that soon in updates, we can customize the app how we want and possibly be able to add our own call event. For the fire department instead of just only having a fire button and instead let us colonize it and do what we want with the options. I think a huge system update to revamp the whole app and change it around would look nice with it organized and stuff. Maybe more settings!.Version: 2.2.23
✓ Exellent informative immediate100,000% Thanks You to All Cfa & Radio callers behind the Scenes,incredible Humble People !.Version: 2.2.4
✓ Idea, comment sectionThis is a great app and I would recommend to anyone. I wish there was a comment section where you could communicate to the others watching.Version: 2.2.12
✓ Great app, just a couple pointsSome county frequencies like Albany in NY distinguish by municipality while scanning, but others do not. It would be great if more did. Also, it seems clear that you would like users to upgrade to the ad-free subscription version. I understand that. I choose not to. I understand that means I’m subjected to ads, but some of these are really aggressive. There sometimes are no options for me to exit one ad without going to another one. This can go on for several minutes. That makes it more difficult to get to information that I need, especially if there’s a weather emergency. Are you aware of that? if so, perhaps you can tone these ads down..Version: 2.2.1
✓ Great app but IOS15 has an issueHello, I’ve enjoyed your app over the years. Yesterday I upgraded to the iPhone 13 pro max with IOS 15.0. I installed the app and listened in for an hour or so this afternoon. I closed the app but it continues to play. I tried several times to stop the app from playing but ultimately had to uninstall it. Yes I do know how to close an app on this new phone and SW version. It’s not something I’m doing wrong, there is a bug with this combo. Hope you’re able to get it fixed soon so I can get back to listening in..Version: 1.10.6
✓ Police radiosYes excellent app.Version: 1.8.5
✓ ExcellentRecommended to me. Spent hours glued to the firefighters fighting a bush fire near my GF house. As we are half a world apart at the moment , it let me leave an accurate message as to what had happened overnight. Stopped the rumours spreading about that the town was lost.. allows you to follow the actual facts. Gave us peace of mind..Version: 1.7.12
✓ The best app for radio scanningNice app with lots of feeds and useful features. Ads are not too intrusive either..Version: 2.2.22
✓ ChI listen to this app every night. Great app would recommend it to anyone who likes to keep up with wat is going on anywhere on the planet..😀. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.Version: 1.7.2
✓ Great appApp works well, just a shame you’ve got to pay so much for it.Version: 2.2.22
✓ WorksGreat app. Has a lot of channels, would be good if we had the more localised channels in Australia..Version: 1.7.12
✓ Great Performance, etcGreat app! Does exactly what it’s supposed to as far as connecting me with local dispatch and fire information. Even better, it provides features like finding local and abroad channels for me. I just tap and can listen as in. The amount of ads is tolerable. Of course, for a couple bucks a month you can get rid of the ads and gain some impressive features. THANK YOU for the this great app! Also, thank you to the every day heroes like police officers, firefighters, EMT’s, those who serve and are veterans, doctors and hospitals, scientists, to our government, and patriots who keep our Nation safe and secure..Version: 1.8.1
✓ Love it.Fantastic service big relief listening to scanner keeps us updated..Version: 1.7.14
✓ Not ReceivingI live in a highly populated area in SE Texas and in the largest county of the state, so there should be no shortage of radio traffic for my area. Having said that I can receive all of Houston PD traffic but very little if any traffic from the Sheriff or Constable and no traffic from any EMS/EMD in the area. I’m curious as to why that is occurring as I’ve had this app for quite some time and have had any issues until about December 2021. The last time I reviewed I gave y’all a 5 but not this time. I’ll change it back if my issues can be resolved..Version: 2.0.5
✓ GreatI found this app a few years ago. Glad I did because is great. Always comes in well, you can see what the top departments are being listened to at the very moment. It will list the situation going on in a certain place. I have noticed some places being taken down, but it has nothing to do with the app. It’s the people adding the certain companies that dictates who’s on and who’s not. All in all, great app if your a fire buff, police buff, ambulance chaser, or just wondering why sirens are going off near me? Great app, check it out..Version: 1.9.1
✓ Great app with snoozeSimple to use has snooze feature..Version: 1.4.4
✓ All the features of a paid app and more...Excellent App! What more can I say?.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Real world appPretty interesting because you can hear actual law enforcement officers and emergency personnel talking in real time, both about what’s going on and other things like clocking in and out. Can’t always tell what’s going on, though. Sometimes big gaps in activity. So the novelty might wear off after a while. But definitely a learning experience. You can listen in on a big newsworthy event anywhere in the country or just little things going on around you. Some international locations as well, though not much..Version: 1.9.5
✓ Easy to Use AppThis is a very easy to use app. Free version comes with advertisements, but the ads are very unobtrusive and do not detract from user experience. Has a great variety of choices from police, fire, air control & more. Recommend LAPD “Hot Shot” frequency for pretty dramatic special operations including coordination between police helicopter & ground units. My son is a professional firefighter & EMT. I enjoy keeping the app playing in the background while he’s on duty. Makes it more fun to have a conversation about his work experiences when I’ve heard the radio traffic between dispatch, command, & his unit..Version: 1.7.13
✓ ScannerLove this app gives news.Version: 1.7.14
✓ After two weeks of comparing all scanner apps…After two weeks of comparing all scanner apps, this one is far the best. 5 stars! The interface is clean, clips feature is nice, and shareable link is very useful. The alerts are great too. The app is worth $3/mo. A companion watch app would be perfect. I noticed it did not list some nearby frequencies that other iOS police scanner apps did, so it may not have all of them. Maybe an option to type in your own?.Version: 2.2.8
✓ Really useful during emergenciesHelped so much during the catastrophe fires on NSW South Coast.Version: 1.7.10
✓ Great appGreat app. I tune in whenever there is fire activity in my area. Get to find out all the information over the scanner..Version: 2.2.4
✓ App greatThis app is great but you could also add the code 11’s.Version: 1.7.10
✓ ScannerYou can pick up the uinited states and canada to and it is good.Version: 2.0.1
✓ 1-10 i give 15Love it i listen all time. as far as i’m concerned this is the best out there easy to navigate lots of choices. 10 🌟.Version: 1.10.7
✓ AmazingKept you in the loop and you felt like you know what was happening which is good for when you’re feeling helpless and waiting for that notification to leave. You can monitor your area so well with this app..Version: 1.7.10
✓ This app is getting badKept having a problem of the application stop playing audio with a pop up of “Failure to retrieve” now I have to stay on the app screen to be able to use it that is with the setting of “audio mixing” set to on. I have tried uninstalling to fix the problem but definitely not going to pay for something that all features don’t work. Hopefully it gets resolved but in the meantime I’m no longer using this application..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Useful!This is a very useful app and I use it a lot. One request though: please be selective in what ads you allow upon startup. The recent ads are not okay here. I opened up the app yesterday and was hearing our local sheriff arrive on a scene and then his words were drowned out by all this screaming! It was alarming and I thought I was about to get called out for an EMS run but it turns out it was an ad for some game and the cartoon character was falling down a chute and screaming. It was not okay to have that screaming overlay a cops radio traffic. Please go back to ads with no sound and certainly not screaming..Version: 1.7.18
✓ Sleep function hit and missI have noticed with latest update that the sleep function will only work if I force close the app and reopen it and I have to do this every time. I’m using iPod and fully updated with iOS. I’ve tried powering down iPod and restarting but nothing fixes it. It never used to be like this, it’s a pain!.Version: 1.10.9
✓ Just one thing neededThere needs to be capabilities to record as an audio file on Iphone like i can do with my samsung with this app, not sure if thats possible or not with the apple systems. its my single only complaint. * Note to users - for thepeople in here whinging about lack of emergency services in certain states in OZ or blaming this app itself, its best you learn about how all this works and operates - the volunteers, the hosts, the feeds, before blaming any developer..Version: 1.7.9
✓ Feature suggestionHello, I have a suggestion for a feature. Allow a user to submit an event, with optional text (for example, [FR/1 Alarm Fire] Structure Fire at <address>, or Fire at this address). The app will then hold this as a “Potential Event” in that particular Scanner, where users can confirm or deny that this is an event happening by clicking a button. If the event gets x amount of votes proportional to the amount of listeners, then push it as an actual event. I think this could help people get alerts much faster..Version: 1.10.2
✓ AdsThe new advertising is very annoying and distracting. The rest is excellent. Helps me a lot concerning rural fire in my area..Version: 1.5.4
✓ Alert Filtering EnhancementThe app is a great scanner listening tool. Works well and is very stable. I have used several different scanner apps and this is now my go-to app. In particular I love the alert functionality! I do have an enhancement request/suggestion. Please consider adding the ability to filter alerts, possibly to restrict alerts by country (ie US only) and also the ability to hide certain feed alerts. With no disrespect to the feed provider, I really am not personally interested in receiving alerts for Elko, NV twenty times a day. I certainly respect the providers zeal and passion but not being anywhere near there, I really don’t need to know about every minor event. Thank you!.Version: 1.7.9
✓ Awww yeaI use this for my drug dealing and bashing’s ...saved me a few times...thanks.Version: 1.7.5
✓ Thank youThis really helped me last night to keep up to date on what the fire was doing and how close it was to us thank you.Version: 1.7.10
✓ Helped me AcabUwU.Version: 2.2.1
✓ Worth itGood overage could do with update of Vic au terminology my only complaint you can also get Bathurst for big event.Version: 1.8.9
✓ MoneyBeen trying for years to pay for the ad free version but it never works.Version: 2.2.6
✓ Nice to know what’s going onWhen the air is full of smoke it nice to know where it’s coming from and to hear all the work from the fantastic volunteers , we are so lucky for the work they do , thank you.Version: 1.7.12
✓ Always worksObviously they're not going to have many UK links because listening to police etc. isn't possible anymore. But for America it works great.Version: 1.4.4
✓ Trying to use St. John’s NewfoundlandSt. John’s Newfoundland.Version: 2.2.15
✓ Needs more international feedsThis app is great, if you want to listen to police, fire, EMS, and other things that are broadcasted on two-way radios in the United States. But when it comes to international feeds like, feeds from South America, Asia, Europe, you know what I mean, this app is very lacking. For example, Brazil is one of the countries listed, as having feeds in the sap, but when I checked, it only has about three scanner feeds! Brazil is a huge country with a lot of provinces and a lot of big cities. they probably have to have thousands of police fire and EMS channels that are active, unless they have only one police force in one city! Same thing with other South American countries like Argentina. That’s a big country as well, but there’s only three scanner feeds. Think of all the cops and firefighters in that country, they have to have more than just three! They need to add more sources, more international feeds, and more support for other countries besides United States. I get that some countries may not have as many scanner feeds, for example, the US and Canada are the only countries on the planet that have weather radio, but for God sake, police radio is everywhere. How else to officers communicate!.Version: 2.2.22
✓ Police ScannerI like this app and there are many jurisdictions available. It is quite addictive to listen to everything that is happening in my County. It is also evident that we have a very serious drug problem in this country in general based on the high number of overdose emergencies I have heard so far. One issue is that my local Police, Fire and EMS scanner goes offline and there seems to be no way to report it. The Fire and EMER is usually online but I personally prefer the police calls. I’m not sure if that has anything to do with the app itself..Version: 1.5.3
✓ AmazingListening to UK police radio is illegal, and they operate on a closed system so obviously you can't listen... Anyone who thought you could is pretty stupid. But it's incredible for USA police radio. Cannot fault this app, it's awesome. Would happily pay for it. 10/10.Version: 1.4.6
✓ Emergency comfortFrom an area under fire threat the ability to hear what’s happening ‘on the ground’ is informative and comforting; listening to those calm voices reporting on crucial decisions and the status of activities. A great adjunct to those other resources that help those monitoring a potential threat..Version: 1.7.10
✓ Great for relaxing and listening what’s going onWorked great.Version: 2.2.22
✓ I love it but i need subtitlesThe app is really good. I haven’t even had an ad at all, which, after reading a bunch of reviews I’m grateful for lol, but when I listen to the radios, it’s really difficult to understand what they’re saying, it would be really great if the developers could figure out how to add auto generated subtitles, they don’t need to always be correct, YouTube does the exact same thing and half the time they’re wrong but at least there’s an option for subtitles. It’ll just make the app a little easier for some people that are either hard of hearing or just have issues with listening without subtitles like me :) other than that, I have no complaints 🙏.Version: 2.2.16
✓ Australian FiresEssential information from following fire fighters available..Version: 1.7.13
✓ Great appThis is a great app for listening to your local area or wherever. It does have a paid version but it also has a free version that works great. It’s not full of ads. I appreciate that this app says it’s free and IS ACTUALLY FREE. I’m so sick and tired of downloading apps that say they’re free, only to download and it not be whatsoever. Definitely worth downloading. Thank you developers..Version: 2.2.18
✓ For the fire fightersHelps us know what is going on down the coast, these fire fighters that are out there fighting these fires, you are honestly hero’s, AUSTRALIA thanks you.Version: 1.7.12
✓ Incredibly informativeAlthough stressful, listening to the latest NSW fire emergency helps us stay informed when we have close friends right in the middle of the fire path. Can’t thank the NSW firefighters enough, they just get the job done!.Version: 1.7.10
✓ A must-have for travelers!As an over the road truck driver, I find this app to be indispensable in routing myself around traffic jams due to accidents or other incidents such as the shootings in Las Vegas that I was less than 15 miles away from when they happened... A few things that would be helpful if it is possible to implement would be: 1- In the broadcastify alerts, if the abbreviation for the state could be included. That way, depending on my route, I could determine whether it will impact me or not. 2- If there were a way to actually add my routing using major freeways, so that those came up as a ‘special alert’ then I could again, determine if a route change was in order. Also, I did not see a way to contact the developer from within the app, unless I missed it..? Overall, this app is my go-to to keep track of all of the areas where my loved ones live, as well as wherever I travel and I don’t know what I would do without it!.Version: 1.7
✓ Scan multiple stations at once.Question. In the next update or the next update. Could you put? Four banks. And in the banks. Could you have it. Scan channels at once. Up to six channels at once. And have four banks. Also have a bank. Pacifically for The Weather Channel. if you get this, please respond by a developers email. Repeat if you get this, please respond by a developers email. Also in the weather band. You can choose your local national weather service channel and then have it. Called alarm. So you don’t have to listen to it constantly go off when there’s a weather warning..Version: 2.2.20
✓ The perfect scanner appAs far as I can tell, it has every fire and police department, so you can tap into your local radio calls wherever you are or wherever you’re interested in. Great audio quality, including amplifying of the audio past regular volume which is really cool, and audio continues in the background which is awesome so you can search the addresses on the map without disconnecting the audio. Even has transcription of all communication. Very intuitive interface as well. All around awesome app..Version: 2.2.23
✓ It’s great but...It’s great for all of us but, I think a lot of people are kids who have the app. I think a lot of people have the app because people want to know if police say there names. Me I just want it to listen to and not to know if my name gets said. So I think it’s a great app and stuff all my friends have it, but I think that it’s should be 18+ because little children might have it and that could be really bad. My mum even has this app 😂 she loves it so much. I was so like to my friends has any of the people you know got said. This app is great! 🙂.Version: 1.8.4
✓ LoveIt.Version: 2.2.14
✓ Best scanner app in the App Store, periodI’ve tried dozens, and no other scanner app compares. There still room for improvement, and some features that I don’t understand why nobody ads. For example, let’s create a Scanner app that actually lets us scan multiple channels… I don’t see any technical reason why you couldn’t monitor two or more at once. That said, I’m giving it five stars because of how it compares to all of the other apps in the store. Not holding back because of the new features that I’d like to see. This developer has been rolling out updates frequently, the user interface is already the best there is, and I hope to see more and more updates going forward..Version: 1.7
✓ Scanner radio deluxeGreat little app not much uk stuff. But fun listening to the nyfd Cheers.Version: 1.1
✓ Excellent!So far so good. Found an iOS app I can use to listen to the ham repeaters and it works. Also It's free! Top notch app! Keep it up!.Version: 1.0
✓ Advertising is intrusiveAdvertising on this app forces you unless clicked to download apps onto your phone from advertisers. Otherwise you can’t go back to the app unless you close and open again. I’m sure there is a better option. This app is collecting lots of information. It’s concerning. I loved it but it seems they go out of their way to make it bad with advertising and frustrating at the free level to force an upgrade which it’s not worth paying for. They don’t create the feeds or monitor them. The app simply listens to open channels. It’s not worth all the nonsense apps they want you to download. You would have a million on your phone using this app if you click the wrong spot. Feeds are great but it’s headed in the wrong direction..Version: 2.2.5
