## What is Squawster?

Squawster is the fastest way to listen to live public-safety radio and stay on top of major incidents as they happen.

LISTEN LIVE
• Thousands of live police, fire, EMS, aviation, rail, and weather feeds, powered by Broadcastify.
• Browse by county, state, or metro, search by name, or jump to what's active near you.
• Background audio with lock-screen controls; keep listening while you use other apps.

INCIDENTS, NOT JUST AUDIO
• A nationwide feed of major events — working fires, mass-casualty incidents, aircraft emergencies, hazmat, and more — surfaced the moment they escalate.
• Follow the areas and event types you care about and get a push the instant something breaks.
• Get notified when a feed surges past 5,000 listeners — usually the sign of something big.

SQUAWSTER PRO
Squawster is free to browse and listen. Squawster Pro adds:
• Scan individual Broadcastify Calls talkgroups live.
• Build and manage your own Calls playlists.
• Cloud-sync your favorite feeds across all your devices.
• Listen to archived recordings.
• An ad-free experience.
