I’m going to uninstall and reinstall and see if that fixes the issue otherwise I’m going to have no choice but to delete it no point in keeping an app that won’t work . ### 1/5 — Trash *2026-07-02, version 6.8* This did not used to be that bad but now it’s a bunch of spam links and pop ups that make it unusable. Total garbage! Apple just needs to remove it from the store. ### 1/5 — Not working like it should *2026-07-01, version 6.8* Can’t see anyone’s picture. Plus it doesn’t give you the option of sending information out if the person got let out. ### 1/5 — Password *2026-06-27, version 6.8* Won’t let me reset password won’t let me create new account. Garbage app ### 1/5 — Needs updated *2026-06-22, version 6.8* Can’t see no pictures at all for months now other than that a good app. ### 1/5 — Needs an update *2026-06-22, version 6.8* Can no longer see inmates pictures due to new iPhone update ### 1/5 — Useless Now *2026-06-19, version 6.8* This used to be a good and useful app. Nothing works and it’s so full of ads that it’s basically useless. ### 3/5 — Struggle getting pics *2026-06-18, version 6.8* Love the app have issues not seeing the pics for Hawkins county but can Sullivan county ### 1/5 — Has this app been abandoned?? *2026-06-11, version 6.8* All I can do is put in neighborhood name and zip code and then nothing at all.

I understand some of this needs to be done by the department. Well, then I suggest a few guys put your heads together with the AD‘s are beyond predatory and harassing and advertisements for what the police to put names in a computer and that computer to send those names to the App Whoopty Doo that’s gotta be a real expensive running cost there to be a middleman and not do anything but take back. The monetary value is into never update you can’t even report a crime. I love it as I said it’s about as useful as these cops in this area. Try to call them to report a crime too they do the same,thing don’t work. report crimes when one try’s too. don’t do their job just like this App well, I think you nailed it. ### 1/5 — Not working anymore *2026-08-04, version 6.8* Used to rely on this app often. Now it won’t load anything, and I deleted it and redownloaded it and can’t even log in anymore. ### 1/5 — This app doesn’t load right *2026-08-04, version 6.8* Can’t ever see 1/2 the mugshots. Doesn’t ever load correctly. Information missing. ### 1/5 — Nothing but ads *2026-07-28, version 6.8* Worthless app ### 1/5 — Ads every 30 seconds *2026-07-27, version 6.8* This is a useless app ### 1/5 — Ehh *2026-07-25, version 6.8* This app use to be good but don’t think they update it regularly… at the moment no photos will load just names and charges… ads are out of hand too, almost unusable ### 1/5 — Stupid *2026-07-18, version 6.8* You app sucks ### 1/5 — NEEDS TO BE UPDATED!!! *2026-07-11, version 6.8* Delaware County Correctional Facility in Delhi, NY hasn’t been on your app anymore, in at least a year now! ### 1/5 — Its bad *2026-07-02, version 6.8* Theres no point tin it ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Not showing inmates *2026-07-11, version 6.8* not showing a list of inmates at all for Minnesota counties. Not sure if it’s related to an iPhone update. ### 5/5 — Bubba *2025-09-05, version 6.8* Good ### 5/5 — Turn dark mode off! *2020-10-03, version 5.5.6* I’ve thought for a while now that after an update a lot of features disappeared! NO!! Turn ur dark mode off on iPhones u can see everything again ### 5/5 — Fix for iPhone/ iPad *2020-07-07, version 5.5.6* If you can’t see the description on your screen then you can change your display settings from dark mode to light mode and you can see the info. True Story! ### 5/5 — Facebook user *2020-01-19, version 5.5.3* I love this app it gives up to date current information,I feel better knowing that we have this app and the public can stay informed of an inmates status ie:the charges,when and if the inmate is released ect ### 5/5 — Thank You *2020-01-01, version 5.5.1* I love checking this app everyday to see the pictures of the people being arrested and reason for the arrest because this really makes me feel a little more safe by seeing the people to watch out for. This could save life’s by seeing and knowing why they have been arrested. Thank You for your services. 2020 ### 5/5 — Great app. *2019-01-23* No other app that has as many counties and facilities in and around my community. I use this app as a user friendly summary. A inmates name and facility is all I’m looking for from this app. That information is consistently correct on that. Pictures and other information can very on accuracy. But most facilities have their own website with all the correct information. Some don’t understand that this is only for active inmates. Once released their information is removed. And the notifications are wonderful. If an inmate changed status or facilities you get a notification no matter how long their in jail. So those that want to complain about inconsistencies in some information apparently don’t use this app for any importance other than scrolling and gossip. Great app Mobile Patrol. ### 5/5 — Wonderful app! *2018-10-08* I’m not in law enforcement, so I don’t know any of those features available on this app. I use the local newsfeed to stay current with everything from road conditions I’m traveling into, to places where accidents have occurred and I need to watch traffic etc. If there’s anything I’m uncertain about, this app also gives me enough information to feel secure, and not have to bother an actual officer or employee. I can read this on my own time, thank you for this app! ### 5/5 — iOS 11 iPhone *2017-10-06* Updated - Thanks for upgrading your app to work with iOS 11. The app now works correctly on both of my devices. This app works fine on my iPad Air 2 on iOS 11, but not on my iPhone running iOS 11. On my iPhone the loading wheel keeps showing when I open up any inmate and it freezes the app. Every time I look at an inmate, I have to close the app and reopen it. EVERYTIME! ### 4/5 — Good *2026-01-06, version 6.8* I over all enjoy the app. I just wish I could pay to not have ads. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
