Suggestion - Report Police (similar to WAZE)

4/5 stars I genuinely love this app. The only improvement I suggest is to let people report police on the roads and this would be the best navigation app and the only one I would use.

Add multiple stops?

It makes it infinitely easier to avoid cameras, but would make it a lot better if it were possible to add multiple stops

Great App

App functions as one would want and it's by far the best I've used for the purpose. Definitely recommend it to all my homies. Only things I want are dark mode, and carplay. That's just me being extra and...as is, this app is fantastic.

Almost there!

Great app however I always have issues with rerouting. Whenever I miss a turn in either the privacy or fast route it freaks out and never adjusted. I use this app while riding my motorcycle well, I try to. I had multiple instances where I had to pull over in a parking lot or the side of the road to download google or Apple Maps to get to my destination.
When it works it’s absolutely amazing I’m curious if “axon”cameras are being considered or any plans for more surveillance!
This app is needed in the time of surveillance bypassing our 4th amendment. I’m happy to support this app and everyone who uses this app should feel the same way

Efficient and works well

If you don’t already know, flock safety cameras have been used to track every move that you make, and because of their extremely low security, it is possible for hackers to tap into the data and use the data to track you, not to mention police have had numerous cases of falsely accusing people of crimes they did not commit. The company claims that they only keep information about vehicles and license plates, however this is false. Do your research, but in the meantime, get this app. To just avoid the cameras altogether so you can keep your privacy and not have to worry about either being falsely accused of a crime by the police or tracked by criminal hackers. Wildly unreal that this kind of low security surveillance is even legal considering the surveillance itself is already violating the fourth amendment.

FAQ

What makes FlockHopper different from other navigation apps?

FlockHopper offers a unique feature by generating two routes for each trip: the fastest route and an alternative route that specifically avoids known automated license plate reader (ALPR) camera locations. This provides users with an option to minimize their exposure to surveillance.

Does FlockHopper have ads?

No, FlockHopper is ad-free. The app explicitly states it has no ads, no third-party trackers, and no data sales, prioritizing user privacy.

How accurate is the ALPR camera data in FlockHopper?

The ALPR camera data is community-sourced and its coverage can vary by region. It may not always be complete or current, so it's important to remember that FlockHopper is a tool for reducing exposure, not a guarantee.

Is FlockHopper available on Android devices?

Currently, FlockHopper is only supported on iPhone devices. The app's supported devices list specifies 'iphone' as the only platform.

What is the age rating for FlockHopper?

FlockHopper has an age rating of 17+. This is likely due to the nature of its privacy-focused features and the potential for users to be concerned about surveillance.

The latest version of FlockHopper, 1.2.2, was released on June 16, 2026, indicating regular maintenance and updates. The app was initially released on April 22, 2026.
