R4 Companion App Support

What is R4 Companion? Description of R4 Companion 4094 chars

R4 Companion™ is a feature rich app, designed to give you the most out of your R4 radar detector, while enhancing your driving experience along the way. Featuring intelligent alerts and advanced muting! R4 Companion™ is the COMPLETE solution to enjoying your R4.

The R4 Companion™ app leverages years of optimizations and features from V1 Companion™ (Available separately on the app store for owners of the Valentine One radar locator). Building on this legacy, the R4 companion adds new systems to support each of the Uniden detector's unique abilities and features.

Enhanced GPS location based 'false muting' via SpotLocks™ - All future updates to this app are free to purchasers of R4 Companion™

R4 Companion™'s alerting and muting systems are fully optimized for the R4 platform. Intelligent voice announcements and on-screen visuals will always keep you informed and aware of the situation around you.

NOTE: R4 Companion™ requires a Uniden R4 radar detector to function correctly.

R4 Companion™ full feature list:
• SpotLocks™ - Location based false silencing has never been this good or easy. Turn on the intelligent location-based learning and let R4 Companion™ do the rest. Or you can manually 'lock' or 'unlock' locations with ease from the main alert screen.
