Annoying feature is that it seems to randomly to go through the iPhone audio instead of the connected headphones—maybe it’s a Bluetooth problem...I don’t know. ### 1/5 — Don't work *2017-10-14, version 9.0* Pos glad I only paid .9@ ### 1/5 — Pile of crap !!! *2017-07-26, version 9.0* Avoid this app !

This app is very easy to navigate! ### 5/5 — Great app! *2016-04-16, version 9.0* Best CB app out there, great people, simple to use and little to no lag or problems. The best thing about the app is you can set it up to hear people talkin when the app is closed or the Phone is locked. ### 5/5 — FANTASTIC APP by Green Eyes March 5th *2016-03-04, version 9.0* I have to say the people on the CB App if you give them a chance will be like family! Grumpy-Ray Ray-Shooter-Sadie-Model-Fiddler and Beaver and so many more stayed with me when I drove across the United States! 😘. We laugh we get upset but no matter what were there for each other! If you give them a chance they will welcome you! Everyone has their own personality! Yes 5505 makes it fun even if he is out spoken! 👀. Shooter is the go too man for words of wisdom and Grumpy makes us all laugh and has a good heart! Model is the mother and Sher Bear is my football partner and Chi Town and Slam dunk are my partners in crime! ❤️ Sadie is awesome! Wild Coyote makes wine hehe! Beaver get those rude people! If your nice they will welcome you! The bad reviews on this app come from trouble makers who get kicked off! There is a instruction tutorial on You Tube on how to use the app, or just ask for any of Lets not forget. Jimbo, Cliff Hanger-Koolaid-smokin Hills and Cat Fish! Any of these people will help you! May God Bless All of you and the Angels watch over you! Love the CB app! You will love it too! 🙏 👅😘🎈💝❤️🌴🌴👀 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
