  • Great app!

    I'm a retired firefighter and this radio scanner app helps me stay connected to my old job I loved so much! Occasionally I've even heard my buddies I used to work with on their emergency calls. I upgraded to the no commercial version which makes it even better asset.

  • Questions

    I deleted this app about 2 weeks after having it for years. It keeps erroring out, repeat postings for the same incident and sometimes they are on there for 2-3 days.

    • Long ads with audio

      App has long ads with audio making it 100% useless for minutes at a time, almost all seem to start when scanner starts.

    • Useless

      It’s a great app but they allow the adds to start playing right in the middle of the announcement. The sound from the ads drown out what you’re trying to hear to force you to pay for the app.

    • What is the purpose of paying!

      What’s the purpose of purchasing the app if you’re still going to receive adds? If you’re going to continue doing that you might as well just not charge the fee that it cost to purchase the app. The price for an add base application should be $1.00 if going to request a subscription.

    • Ads are ok on the free version but…

      Ads are ok on the free version but why do they have to start right when they are announcing where the fire is at so you never hear where the fire is? Why can’t the ad come in like 10 or 20 seconds later. I’d pay for the paid version if it wasn’t so over priced!
