Better features then any other scanner app

Building custom Calls playlist and playing them on this app is a game changer.

Also, the ability to hold a channel and or ignore them is also a fantastic feature, when playing a playlist.

This will be a 5 star app very soon. Just some small tweaks first.

Issues playing

When I normally have mine in standard mode, I can press the call and get caught up, when I do that or start this one, it doesn’t play and just stays on the call as they come in. Still never hearing a single one

Great So Far

This is a great start on what can be a powerful tool. Ai doesn’t always get the words correctly but, in time I’m sure it will improve.
If you like being in the know, this app is for you. Get alerts for your area. Listen live to radio traffic.

Totally accessible

I’m glad they brought an app back. and it is totally accessible for those like myself that use VoiceOver. Everything from just regular listening to accessing archives can be done through this app. The only thing you can’t do is share archived audio from the app directly, but I found no complaints. it’s more user friendly than the third-party scanner apps that are out there as far as navigating
