Way too many ads even after paying to do away with ads! These bugs need fixed. Why pay for an app that does the same thing as the free version!! Please just fix the app, and it would be great!

Hello, the paid version removes visual ads before stations play. Audio ads at the beginning of some stations come from the broadcasters themselves, which we can't control — noted as "no visual ads" on the paywall. If you're experiencing bugs or would like a refund, please contact info@kovanapps.com. We apologize for the inconvenience.

I have a paid subscription and I still get ads. The app only works for about 2 minutes and then it shuts off. then I have to reengage it by going and searching for the channel that I want to listen to. Favoriting a channel does not work. Can't believe I paid for this.

second worse scanner app ever! When you get around to fixing the sound so it works on 5G smartphones and you can actually hear something including static coming out of the speaker I might give it another go right now it's not worth it to keep it on my device so I uninstalled it.
