Ratings and reviews

Useless. Wouldn't connect to channels, awkward interface, very annoying ad placement when you try to navigate anywhere, and a subscription-based service to get rid of them. All for an app that doesn't even seem to work. There are better police scanner aps out there. Don't waste your time, or especially your money, on this one.

Disappointed. It clearly states "LIVE RADIO" in description, but after reading the previous reviews I learned the broadcasts are recorded by "voulenteers" with real scanners, and then uploaded to internet. The information you're getting could be hours old. But it's a great app if you're just using for entertainment or curiosity. You just can't rely on it for safety. And the voulenteers must be getting bored and dropping out, as a good 75% of the channels are always Offline.

Terrible app. It's been successful in connecting about 10% of the time. Most of the time it says "connecting", then it counts down and says "reconnecting", and continued to count down. This goes on and on. I'll use an app that actually lets me hear the police bands. Oh, and while it's trying to connect, it repeatedly shows inappropriate ads. No thanks.
