Police Scanner + Fire Radio

I first got this app in 2017. I used to put on neighboring cities and counties to see what was up in the areas. The app is stable and lets you know if a feed is offline. I’ve had no connectivity issues thus far and I have been able to connect the app via Bluetooth to my car for on the go listening. This app is much better than most of these other ones you can get. I highly recommend this app, especially the pro version if you want to relax and go without ads. One issue I noticed: the app stops audio whenever you switch apps and let it run in the background. I’m not sure why but it’s done this a couple of times thus far. Although it’s rare, there is still the chance of it occurring.

I tested out a few different police scanner apps but ultimately decided to purchase this one because it has a radio feature with some interesting channels, and the interface is user-friendly and pleasing to look at. This is the only type of police scanner I have experience with. I’ve never used a real, physical police scanner. With my inexperience, I have no idea what any of the streaming info means, or why some of the scanner areas are similar to others in name, but all scanner apps seem to display the same info with no way to get an explanation. An option to pull up a reference tutorial of some sort would be helpful, if at all possible.

Been hooked on scanner traffic for years. This app gives you the ability to listen to many locales. My town is small compared to the big cities on here but has its share of crime and other issues. I particularly enjoy streaming the app to my vehicle when driving through town. We've all driven by those multiple police or fire vehicles and wondered what was happening. With this app, you'll know. So many things that go on in a community that are never reported on the news and with a scanner app like this, you can be prepared or aware. Obviously, the information you hear on the scanner is delayed slightly (usually a few seconds) but for the most part it's pretty much real time. So addicted, love it!
