Because the app relies on radio frequencies, the information received may not be as accurate or complete as official channels

The app's signal reception may be interfered with

    You're welcome! I'm glad you like the scanner and found your County easily. It has a wide selection and is easy to use. Just click on the nearby tab and they will do the rest for you, then choose what you want. Unlike other scanners that only show County by County or City by City, this scanner searches all around you automatically, which is a great feature!

    I tried to get reception from different places in the country, which was good if that's what you wanted, but not what I was looking for. My local radio signal couldn't be reached. Maybe it's because I live in a small town. I thought I had already canceled this service, but apparently I didn't and my card got charged $39.99 plus tax. I reached out to the police scanner company, and they were very nice and quickly refunded the charge. Give their free 3-day trial a shot, it might suit your needs. If not, just cancel it. They are great to deal with.

    I first gave this app a bad review because I thought it was a paid app and the price was a bit high. But after receiving a response, I realized my mistake and decided to give it another chance. It turns out that the app can be used for free, although it's a bit confusing at first. When you open the page, you can simply close it. The app works really well, and the channels are very clear. However, many channels in my area were offline, and I'm not sure why. Apart from that, I would definitely recommend this app!

    I got this app when my other one broke. I quickly got 27 notifications but they were all from different places. If I turn them off, I miss local updates. Leaving them on, the app keeps stopping to show me each one. The ads were silent and gave me something to do while multitasking. However, with all the interruptions, I had to delete it eventually.

    Couldn't find any channels to listen to, always offline. App is too expensive at $40 a year, trial version has too many ads, need a sponsor. Should be in the $2.99 category like other apps. Hard to rate this app higher than three stars as a developer for over 40 years.

    This app is great for staying updated on what's happening nearby. You can listen to scanners from different places and the app provides code explanations based on each region. Even without premium, I'm having a good time using it.

    I wanted to cancel my subscription before the trial ended, but they said no. The first responders may not be there when you need them. Customer service was slow and not useful. They make it hard to use the free version so you end up paying. It's important to tell others when an app isn't what it claims to be.
