### 2/5 — Crashing

*2020-10-11, version 2.0.10*

After recent update, app now crashes as you’d scroll through.  Otherwise great to have for any first responder/leo or those just interested.

### 1/5 — Crap app

*2018-11-06, version 2.0.9*

This app is trash always has server issues and crashes. Not sure what’s so difficult about running a decent app seeing there are millions in the App Store that run fine.

### 2/5 — Videos do not work

*2018-08-09, version 2.0.9*

Articles are good but can not view videos in tips section.

### 1/5 — Constantly crashes

*2018-07-28, version 2.0.9*

I would expect a large police website such as this one have a quality app. It’s garbage and I am tired of having to reopen the app three or four times to read an article. There has to be a better software developer or server to make this better. I use information each day with my co workers from police one to improve our performance but this app is a waste of time.

### 2/5 — Unfortunate

*2018-07-26, version 2.0.8*

I’ve had this app on my phone for a long time now. In that time there have been many updates to the app, yet it still crashes constantly.

### 2/5 — It crashes all the time.

*2018-07-21, version 2.0.8*

I'll be reading an article for no more than a half a minute and it will completely crash on my iPhone 7.

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2018-07-21, version 2.0.8*

The app unexpectedly closes while in the middle of reading articles or watching videos. Very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Use to work great

*2018-07-19, version 2.0.8*

The app used to work great. I’ve noticed that it crashes after a couple minutes every time I use it now.

### 2/5 — App shuts down

*2018-07-18, version 2.0.8*

I enjoy the app. However, since the last update it constantly shuts down while I use it. Very frustrating. I have an Apple 7

### 1/5 — Fix it

*2018-07-16, version 2.0.8*

This app continues to crash. I have two different phones and it crashes on both. You would think one would attempt to fix this issue with all the other reviews saying the same thing. I used to enjoy reading this app.

### 1/5 — Still Junk ⭐️

*2022-04-30, version 2.0.11*

Update: came back for another try at the app. Still a one star app. No updates, looks like it should be on an iphone 5. Definitely an app the AppStore needs to delete for being abandoned.

2018 Review: It’s old and hasn’t been updated for years. Looks awful on any larger screen and won’t rotate. Cleaning out my junk apps for iOS 14 and this one is deleted! ⭐️ barely

### 1/5 — Unstable App

*2020-11-13, version 2.0.10*

The app is great, except for the constant crashing. I’ve deleted and reloaded the app, with no help. This has been going on for a long time and may have reported the same issue. Developers get on it. Fix the bugs

### 1/5 — Comments

*2020-11-11, version 2.0.10*

The app was a vital source of LE news.  The app is constantly not working and crashes while reading an article.  The ability to comment on the articles was removed with our explication.  Sad to see this source go downhill so quickly.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2020-11-11, version 2.0.10*

Used to be good but now you cant get through an article without it crashing several times. Super annoying!

### 1/5 — Just don’t

*2020-10-31, version 2.0.10*

Used to be a good app.  Now they took away commenting to somehow be PC (because the voice of cops doesn’t matter) and since they did that crappy update, the app crashes constantly while you are reading articles. Great job making things “better” by silencing people.

**Developer response:** Sorry for the inconvenience, we’ve found the problem and fixed it. Please let us know if you continue to run into any trouble.

### 1/5 — Chief

*2020-10-29, version 2.0.10*

I have been using this app for a couple years now and have loved it. But over the last month, I’m on it for about 5 minutes and the app crashes. I have tried to re-install it but the problem persists.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing like everyone else’s

*2020-10-21, version 2.0.10*

Love the articles and the information, but most of the time I can’t read more than half of an article before the app crashes. It would be very nice if they fixed the issue, instead of just updating the logo. But what do I know, I’m just a beat cop

**Developer response:** Sorry for the inconvenience, we’ve found the problem and fixed it. Please let us know if you continue to run into any trouble.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2020-10-21, version 2.0.10*

The app is not what it used to be since Police One was taken over by Lexipol. Crashes every time you use it. They removed the ability to comment on the articles, and use pretty much nothing but open source articles from AP. 

If you are LE, don’t waste your time on Police1. It is neither for nor by cops anymore.

**Developer response:** Sorry for the inconvenience, we’ve found the problem and fixed it. Please let us know if you continue to run into any trouble.

### 1/5 — App crashes since last update.

*2020-10-12, version 2.0.10*

Can’t read a single article without app crashing. Needs to be fixed.

### 1/5 — Not what I expected

*2019-01-09, version 2.0.9*

When in the police academy or apart of any Law enforcement agency Police One is heavily used. It’s used for training, refreshers, exams, modules etc which are ALL mandatory. I downloaded this app in hopes to get access to the mandatory training, refreshers and recertifications while at home or on the go. Unfortunately, I can not log in to my account nor can you access any or the mandatory trainings, modules and exams for any law enforcement department ...disappointing 

Please fix this 
We’d love to use this app 
Maximize the apps potential please

### 5/5 — No problems since updates

*2023-04-04*

Great app since the crashing problem got fixed. Only request now would be videos that are playable on the mobile app.

**Developer response:** Sorry for the inconvenience, we’ve found the problem and fixed it. Please let us know if you continue to run into any trouble.

### 5/5 — App Crashes-Update

*2018-09-20, version 2.0.9*

They fixed the issue with the app crashing. Least on my end. Now it’s a 5 star app.

Love this app but lately it crashes after viewing an article for roughly 2 minutes. I have to reopen and look for where I left off every time. Getting close to deleting it unless they fix this issue...

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2018-08-17, version 2.0.9*

Just kidding, it’s wretched. Absolutely abysmal. Do not download. Constant state of instability.

### 4/5 — Issues FIXED!!!

*2020-12-18, version 2.0.11*

Made a complaint; they answered me and fixed the crashing problem!!! Cant ask for better than that!

**Developer response:** Sorry for the inconvenience, we’ve found the problem and fixed it. Please let us know if you continue to run into any trouble.

### 4/5 — Need article dates

*2020-10-12, version 2.0.10*

A good source for police related news. Much of the content is drawn from mainstream news sources.  

Many news events garner several articles as information develops.  Which article is newest?  A date the article was published would be helpful.

### 3/5 — App Crashes

*2020-11-08, version 2.0.10*

It’s a good idea, like what the app could offer if it didn’t crash every time I use it...

### 3/5 — Search feature

*2020-03-15, version 2.0.9*

The app is good, but how about a search feature??

### 3/5 — Sound issues

*2018-09-25, version 2.0.9*

I have an IPhone X and every video I try to watch has no sound.

### 2/5 — App Crashes

*2020-10-30, version 2.0.10*

Recent update has causes the App to regularly crash after a few minutes of use. Can’t get through an article without it crashing at least a few times.

**Developer response:** Sorry for the inconvenience, we’ve found the problem and fixed it. Please let us know if you continue to run into any trouble.

### 2/5 — App Crashes - Never any updates

*2020-10-24, version 2.0.10*

Cant even open the app long enough to read an article before it crashes. Sometimes you can’t even scroll to an article. If they don’t find a fix soon (which I don’t know why I expect one when this has been happening for years) then I’ll be deleting the app.
