User reviews

My favorite app but

I really wish there was a way to save talk group preferences as a favorites list. I’d even pay for a pro version of the app if it was available!

Good..could be better

Overall, very good app. Lots of choices if scanner sorted by area. My one recommendation would be, is add a search feature to the talk groups. Its very difficult to exclude channels you dont want.

Too many duplicate channels

Scanner shows way too many duplicate channels sand cannot find one channel in my area. Useless app!

Limited areas

Not a single New Mexico station

Not working

It’s not refreshing for today it’s stuck on 12 pm for Sacramento
