User reviews

Great App and Development

This app is very useful especially for the earlier alerts and heat maps with risk scores. I use an Escort detector and find it quite helpful even without the full detector integration. Paid version is worth it and developer keeps adding features.

Amazing app, would be great to have apple watch compatibility if possible

Using for 2 years now, the premium is 100% worth it without a doubt. Genuinely helped me avoid tickets for a very long time in combination with a r7. More information is always better in my opinion. Probably a niche request, but it would be nice to have an apple watch version. It is hard to use on a motorcycle and it would be nice if there was a simplified display for apple watches. I recommend this to literally everyone I know.

Response from developer

Thanks for the kind words Arian! I've considered building an Apple Watch companion app before but hadn't considered the motorcycle use case. If you're up for it, shoot me an email at info@highwayradarios.com with more details on what you're imaging.

My Go To App

I’ve tried several apps. HighwayRadar has proven to be highly reliable. I’m amazed at how many people must be using this app to produce accurate and timely crowd-sourced location reports everywhere I’ve driven in multiple states. The display format provides everything I need at a quick glance so I’m not distracted. It even tracks aerial survalence.

A must have

Way better than you could imagine. Limitless options and configuration. You would expect this to come directly from the radar detectors manufacturers. But if they did it would still fall short.

Seriously if you have a supported radar and you are wanting more info you need to do it.

This app is the real deal!

I’ve been a big fan of this app for a long time. As a driving enthusiast, I really appreciate its impressive set of integrated features. I was especially excited for the iOS implementation, and it has absolutely lived up to my expectations. Everything from the aircraft alerts to the radar and laser system integration is incredibly well executed and adds a lot of value. It’s a fantastic app that continues to impress.
