Poorly Conceived UI and UX
By Shane B (Pcmac user)
The app does what it says, and we all know this is the best general site for accessing shared scanner feeds. But it seems like no one even gave this app any forethought. When you have a feed playing there’s no way to click back over to it easily without manually tracking the same exact feed down again, no indicators whatsoever. It should act like any other audio player and have a play/pause button and link back to the feed.

Great scanner but glitching lately
By HeatherKansan (Pcmac user)
This is a great app but it’s been glitching as of lately. (Read more)
First off, this app is awesome. It is so easy to use and provides hours of entertainment/information without having to keep it on screen. There are not a bunch of trashy adds which is much appreciated and there is a huge selection of cities/providences.
Really does make the old days of searching through the original handheld scanners seem so difficult.
However, it does not have all the codes like the website so I’m still having to jump over to the site on google in order to decipher the lingo.
Also, I’ve had an issue where it stops playing. I know it’s not the channel because it plays perfectly when I check it on the website.
Beside that, I highly recommend this app!

Needs a better UI
By K Leininger (Pcmac user)
Would gladly pay to lose the ads. The UI isn't very attractive. Opening graphic doesn't fill up the iPhone 6+ screen. Make the app brighter and nicer. I hate that it stops when you move off of wifi. That should be an option that can be toggled on/off.

Honestly the best scanner
By Ima Starboy (Pcmac user)
This is honestly the best police scanner. They have their own website also. The major benefit of this app is they offer alerts and descriptions of high priority events that you can check under alert feeds. And when swiping through different scanners if they have an important alert it will be visible with a summary of the events taking place.
