Best scanner app in the store

I have tried many different scanner apps available in the App Store, and this one is the best by far. For one main reason, it lets you monitor multiple channels simultaneously.I live in a big city and the police department uses several different channels. I just enter in the different channels in the app skin them all at the same time. It’s cycles through and when it hits one that is broadcasting it stops there until the broadcast up then continue cycling. So I can sit back relax and never miss a thing thanks to this app.

Disappointed

If you live in the San Francisco Bay Area, this app does not work. SAVE YOUR MONEY for another app.
