User reviews

When it works..

When it works, by connecting properly, it’s fine. Having the ability to update OTA is terrific, but this app has huge problems staying or being able, to reconnect.

Needs fixing please

None of the buttons on the app work. Needs fixing please.

Garbage app

Pairing does stay static
Have to pair for each use

Buggy Mess

I’ve been attempting to update the firmware for my Uniden R8W. After 30+ minutes of struggle it finally decided to do a DB update using the WiFi. Then I tried pairing the device back to the app after the update and now it won’t pair lol. What a mess. $800 device btw.

Need single frequency low strength filter

My 2026 CT5 constantly falses at Ka 35.100 one bar strength , probably from the entertainment system. Lowering Ka sensitivity to 80% doesn’t help. Need a low strength Ka frequency filter without merely blocking off an entire Ka segment.
