  • Useless

    My experience with this app is negative. Every time I try and look for inmates a message reading failed pops up. I haven’t been able to see anything really. I tried deleting and downloading again and get the same error message. Also, ads are popping up back to back which makes the app hard to maneuver.. needs major updates and improvements. It’s better to just use a website which is more dependable.

  • All in all happy

    I’ve been pretty pleased with mobile patrol for quite some time now. However, I do feel that having all arrestees photos available on the feed as well as the current charges listed with each person would be more informative for me. But I love the app! Thanks Mobile Patrol!
  • Great app.

    No other app that has as many counties and facilities in and around my community. I use this app as a user friendly summary. A inmates name and facility is all I’m looking for from this app. That information is consistently correct on that. Pictures and other information can very on accuracy. But most facilities have their own website with all the correct information. Some don’t understand that this is only for active inmates. Once released their information is removed. And the notifications are wonderful. If an inmate changed status or facilities you get a notification no matter how long their in jail. So those that want to complain about inconsistencies in some information apparently don’t use this app for any importance other than scrolling and gossip. Great app Mobile Patrol.

  • Needs Improvement

    This used to be a useful app until they stopped showing charges and photos of inmates. Most apps that have issues are resolved rather quickly but given the reviews and score of 2.0 I see how this app has such a low score. The developers should work on the app since it’s supposed to help with safety and give real time information and if not take it down until it is a functioning app. If I could score this app with no stars I would! Do better please!

  • Wonderful app!

    I’m not in law enforcement, so I don’t know any of those features available on this app. I use the local newsfeed to stay current with everything from road conditions I’m traveling into, to places where accidents have occurred and I need to watch traffic etc. If there’s anything I’m uncertain about, this app also gives me enough information to feel secure, and not have to bother an actual officer or employee. I can read this on my own time, thank you for this app!

  • Uninstalling!

    I am respectfully very unhappy with this app and the changes it recently underwent. Myself along with many others I work with use this app daily. Without the charges this app is useless to me; unfortunately, I along with my colleagues will be uninstalling this app. I would like to see the charges listed as they previously were. I don’t feel it violates their privacy due to the local newspapers and various other media outlets running their names and charges publicly. The charges are also a mater of public record at local court houses. My colleagues and I utilized your app for the concise information in a central location. I would like to ask for your consideration in returning to the build that includes the charges.

    Respectfully submitted,
    Amanda

  • Great concept, poor execution

    As a Law Enforcement Officer I love the concept of this app. I get to see all local county jails’ rosters. However, recently I have not been able to see charges which is a big frustration, because it was much easier to right reports without having to call the jail and ask what all the offender was charged with! I hope this is fixed immediately! I also hate that it will randomly freeze while scrolling; it is stupidly annoying. I feel like the developers put no effort into this app to keep it updated. This app can be great but the developers need to step their game up and fix these issues; all the issues that have been mentioned in each review posted! So, to repeat myself; I love the app hate the execution. FIX IT!!

  • Why

    So I see that the app said that it was giving miss information so they took off the charges. That was like two weeks ago?! Going to fix it??? Like the other commenter said what’s with the people disappearing?? The app freezes. God forbid I get a phone call, I have to kill the app and start over. The ads are so friggin loud I can’t open the app with my sleeping baby in the room. For me the “newsfeed” only shows one city, which is not mine. That’s dumb. The only thing that is available for my town is the inmates (again, with no charges still). No sex offenders, no warrants. So basically this is a crap app.

  • Good concept, poorly executed

    I enjoy this app for the idea and the information provided. However, everything else is for lack of a better term garbage. Crashes a lot and freezes for 10-15 seconds randomly while scrolling, with limited information and different options depending upon the county or area your viewing I’ve found several useless options such as Most Wanted tab with absolutely no information or very outdated information. Also, altogether just a somewhat ugly appearance.

    I do try to keep in mind some information may be out of control of the developer.

  • Not correct info

    Every time I look on here it gives failed info. I see ppl get arrested and then I go on here and notice they are magically gone as if they weren't arrested. That is annoying because it should show you ppl that were arrested even if they started snitching they should leave all info on here. Doesn’t seem like the public is allowed to get info unless the ppl we hand our tax money to feels like giving it to us. Also they only show photos that they feel like I have noticed as well. There should be no way to alter this and all arrests shall stay in here and people should be able to comment on it. It makes me sick that I see ppl in here for minor offenses but others that are worse are pulled out of here as if they never existed. In that case we should all be-able to do the same thing. So my final opinion on this app is that it’s not accurate and is full of lies as well as misleading info added and incorrect enter and Release dates as well wrong bail amounts and so much. Wrong miss leading info and favoritism as well. Use as last resort and don’t believe s thing you see in there!
