It’s helpful to know what’s going on around me. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Scanner or scammer *2023-01-02, version 4.3* This app works good However they get you to pay the 1.99 for uninterrupted scanning. It worked good that night. The next day it wants another 1.99. Humm When I paid the first one, it said it was one time. Guess that was false. 1.99 a day. You can keep it. ### 1/5 — Police 50 scanner *2022-08-14, version 4.3* When I paid for my phone bill on a monthly basis, it worked enough to get a little info. Then I got poor and started using free cricket SIM card. I finally get the app AGAIN, and every 60 seconds there’s a AD. So then I pay 1.99$ to have AD’s removed and now all it does is buffer. Buffer, & buffer . So now I don’t get any information. Absolutely LAME. Talk about a money scam. B.S. ### 1/5 — App is junk *2022-02-26, version 4.3* Never once heard a single radio transmission as the app was nonstop buffering, even after paying $ for the upgrade. Completely disappointed. ### 1/5 — Rip off *2021-06-19, version 4.3* The scanner app is great. Love it. The rip off is your upgrade. I paid for the upgrade and the next day , the upgrade was gone and I started getting the ad for upgrade. It wasn’t mentioned anywhere that the upgrade was for 24 hours only. I was ripped off. ### 1/5 — Paid for the upgrade and it wants me to pay again *2020-11-26, version 4.3* I just spent the money for the upgrade so I can use this at work in the background while I’m in other apps I turned it off and got back on and it’s asking me to purchase the upgrade again I’d like a refund for the 3 bucks I spent for nothing ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2020-08-30, version 4.3* I paid for the pro version and I still get games popping up and I still got Build, but I get continuous reminders to upgrade to pro. Where is the Customer service button? ### 1/5 — Took my money *2020-06-07, version 4.3* Paid for upgrade to find out that it took the ads out one time. I used the app next time and ads are back. There no option to restore purchase, not happy. ### 1/5 — Steals your money *2020-06-01, version 4.3* Hello, I downloaded Police Radio this evening, to keep abreast of protests occurring in my area... First off, why not just make it a paid app up front? Why waste your customer’s time with ads popping up every minute and cutting out the scanner, forcing them to not be able to actually use the app?! Who in their right mind would use your “free” app in sixty second intervals only?! Just make it $1.99 from the bloody get-go! Second, purchased, or “upgraded“, in order to have a functioning app, and worked well, even when phone was put in sleep mode... awesome! Except later this evening when I go to use it again, all of the sudden I have ads again, and the same functionality I had is now gone! So, either give me back my “upgraded” functionality that I paid to have, or refund my money! Thank you. ### 1/5 — Pretty much just like all the other scanner apps *2020-05-31, version 4.3* This scanner app seems to be like all the other scanner apps as another person posted information is from the same database is so I am not quite understanding the upgrade thing that pops up all the time wanting me to upgrade and drop a few ads and have this thing work in the background when I can use Broadcastify and at least with Broadcastify they name the county and state of origin of the particular scanner this thing only name is the county AEE cook county or the city i.e. Chicago but it does not give you the state location of the particular feed that’s just pure laziness on their part and it could be done easily I think ### 1/5 — Needs fixed *2020-02-04, version 4.3* You download it because it’s free but once you try to listen it will stop and try to get you to upgrade and you got to keep hitting the button to go back ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Sunshine 60 *2024-01-19* I think it’s wrong to make people have to pay To use scanners to stay safe in their own neighborhoods! I listen to police scanners so I can keep my family and friends safe!!!!!! I like your app !!!! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2023-12-10* I live in a crazy and large Ohio city. Parma Ohio. This is a great pastime during our long winters. Go to bed listening every night…Thanks ### 5/5 — Police scanner *2022-10-02, version 4.3* Does the $1.99 pay for the app itself or is it a monthly payment of $1.99 ### 5/5 — I am thankful *2022-09-15, version 4.3* This what I been for and am so happy ### 5/5 — Great scanner *2022-03-18, version 4.3* I’ve had this scanner app for years. I use it only for the railroad near me and have never had any issues. Great scanner if you pay the one time fee for life without any interruptions. ### 5/5 — Listening to my Dad *2022-02-21, version 4.3* My dad is a police officer and it is so fun listening to him and listening what crazy horrible things he gets into it’s an OK game but I hate how it once you to pay for it if you could please not make us pay because it is dumb to pay for something like that and anyone that’s reading this don’t pay for it it’s not worth it. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2021-08-29, version 4.3* I’ve had this app for many years. I only paid a one time fee. Easy to use. ### 5/5 — Cindy Long Island ny *2021-05-11, version 4.3* I like the app some little quirks but other then that great 👍 ### 5/5 — OUTSTANDING *2020-05-02, version 4.3* This scanner is the best I have ever used. It presents in real time. Totally authentic, covers the entire world, and the clarity is outstanding. I find I can hear news as it happens, even before the events hit the broadcast media. ### 5/5 — Update *2019-11-21, version 4.3* Logicord could you please update the app I don’t know of many other apps that haven’t updated in over 2 (YEARS) not 2 months so please bring the app up to date and fix the little problems that people are asking for if you don’t update then we will know what the app means to your company thank you --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
