Reviews: What People Think About R4 Companion

Rating: 5/5
After using the radar alone and trying the this app with it I was amazed how it helps turn downs false signal on normal roads. I do have one feature or bug I still can’t figured out. The city over speed warning comes on even when I turn it pass 60. I want to go faster than 60 and it does it on the toll road too. I have to reset to factory settings to get rid of it. I hope they can tell me how I can turn it off or and fix the bug even when I’m on the highway with speed faster than 60.
Update: love this app as they provided instructions how to turn off the speed warning limit. 5star app!

It is difficult to imagine that this app works so well with just its default settings that it made me believe my R4 wasn’t working properly. The truth is, I was getting a vast number of false alerts that this app helped to mute - while
Keeping track in the log for later review.
The only thing I haven’t figured out how to do it to use the map function in the app to go back and mark certain spots as false alerts. You can mark the type of alert, but there doesn’t seem to be away to mark as a false alert. Otherwise perfect. The in app settings config for the R4 is very helpful too.

I typically don’t write reviews for apps, but since this is a paid app and an app that performs flawlessly, the developer deserves to have a positive review written. I would’ve paid $20 for this app. It allows you to adjust most settings that you would normally have to do on the R4 itself. Also, you can see many more details of what the R4 is detecting that the small display can’t show.
If I had one recommendation it would be to have a Landscape option that also flips the display so you could use it as a Head Up Display against the windshield. That would be awesome.
