The Future of Scanner Apps!

Really great app that truly sets itself apart from all the other scanner apps. Being able to select specific talkgroups or agencies / “groups” (ie “All Fire/EMS”, “CFD Fire”, etc) is super valuable. The archive function is another notable feature — the ability to easily jump back to a certain day/time is awesome.

Those are just a few of the features that make OpenMHz ideal for more advanced listeners looking to customize their experience. On the other hand, everything is also very straightforward and easy to use, making it an ideal “plug & play” choice for beginners and advanced scanner enthusiasts alike.

I have used pretty much every scanner app offered on iOS, and to summarize in one sentence; OpenMHz is the future and makes all the other scanner apps feel like they are running Windows 95 in 2023.

New Favorite App

I work in Philadelphia and love listening to this in the background where I work. I used to bring in a Uniden BCD436HP scanner but there are a lot of simulcast issues in the area.

This is actually a lot better than using a scanner because it queues up the calls, so you don’t miss anything.

My only wishlist items would be a way to “favorite” a system so I don’t have to find it each time and CarPlay support.

Five Stars for simply doing this

Luke, just downloaded and started to play with this on iOS and Ventura/Mac/OS. Thanks for doing this. Had a couple of crashes already, but not to worry.... Do you have a support / funding link? Like to make a contribution to your noble effort.
