Junk!!!!!!!

Junk App. Downloaded to use and fine tune my cobra radar, however after first installing and going to make my account a message appears and says something went wrong. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times as well as shutting my phone off and turning back on.

Accurate/reliable

I have a speed radar detector I used it for everyday while I’m doing food delivery very useful till now I’m not receiving any violations on the road because of that I’m very thankful to cobra speed radar detector

iradar 480

I absolutely love this dector the amount of control you have is wild. I downloaded the iradar app and connected my phone through bluetooth and can set the range strength and the brightness I can set the alarm to automatically mute when it gets a radar signal or laser. I like how you can set on the map if there is a speed trap being done or a accident there is just so much with this radar. once I am done playing with the app I mainly now just drive if it goes off I check my speed it keeps me from going over is what I really like because this thing picks up like a mile away im not kidding so I definitely have enough time to make sure my speed is right. you want be disappointed with this radar detector it is the best in this price range.

Not bad

I use this app with my cobra 480i and it’s not bad. When it comes to the connectivity of the app and the radar together It’s pretty good. When I’m driving the miles per hour on my radar is consistent with the actual speed that I’m driving at. I used the drive smart app Like the box told me to and when driving with that app it’s super delayed so I prefer this one. The app itself is kind of outdated and with the newest iPhone right now, it doesn’t the best together. The Maps on the app itself is really bad so I usually use Waze and keep this app running in the background on my phone so we can update the speed on my radar and that’s it but if you were trying to use this app alone I wouldn’t recommend it but if you’re using a different maps app, and keeping this running in the background while driving it doesn’t work bad. If they just fixed the UI and make it work better with new phones and the Maps better I definitely a better score.

Great concept and functionality but bugs make it awful to use

I like the concept and functionality but many bugs make it almost impossible or unbearable to use. Many of the settings menu screens cannot be clicked. The fact that the app must be loaded for it to connect to the radar is annoying plus recently i must log out of my account and back in otherwise my phone will not even see the radar detector and yes i have erased the app and downloaded it again, reset my network settings and tried an identical radar. Iphone 13 IOS 16 and rad480i

Works great

Some people seem to be expecting a freebie on the app, but the app is working just fine with my purchase of the 480i and so far it has worked flawlessly.

Kinda pointless paired with radar detector

Disconnects from radar detector randomly. Must have the app opened to connect. The only thing that it does to the detector (480i) is show current speed, speed limit(which can be useful in some cases), and enables the lockout feature. However, when you lock out a spot it only applies for that drive…not forever. At least thats what im noticing. I dont even bother trying to connect the detector to my phone anymore tbh

Poor subscription service

I have tried to subscribe to their premium version twice and both times it hasn’t actually upgraded me to anything. i have wasted over 100$ trying to get to the premium version but still i always get the message that my subscription has expired and i’m starting to hate this company because all they have done is take my money and not give me anything back.
Would not recommend trying to purchase their premium service completely ineffective.
