WHAT YOU GET • Real-time police alerts shared by a community of drivers, often with the posted speed limit right at the alert location • A worldwide database of speed and red-light cameras, plus a US database of license-plate (ALPR) cameras, updated regularly • Aircraft speed-enforcement alerts that use smart logic to spot patrols trying to stay hidden • Heat maps that reveal where speed traps tend to happen even when no one is reporting right now • A Risk Score tailored to your exact location, time, and day, so you know when to stay extra alert • Local enforcement details where available: radar bands, common tactics, and vehicle descriptions SIMPLE, BUT AS CUSTOMIZABLE AS YOU WANT You don't have to touch a single setting to benefit. But when you're ready to fine-tune, HighwayRadar puts you in control: • Choose how far ahead you want to be warned, or let smart, speed-aware distances handle it for you • Decide which alerts matter: only what's on your street, anything ahead of you, or everything nearby • Turn specific camera types on or off • Filter out older reports and focus on fresh ones • Hear alerts through CarPlay, Bluetooth, or your phone speaker • Flash the screen for a quick visual heads-up when a new alert arrives BUILT FOR CARPLAY AND YOUR CAR • Full CarPlay support with maps, alerts, and easy reporting • A clean speed display showing the current limit alongside your own speed • Automatic zoom as you approach an alert, so you see the detail that matters • Traffic overlay, adjustable map angle and zoom, and a location icon you can personalize • Customizable light and dark themes that can follow your system or the local sunrise and sunset WORKS WITH YOUR RADAR DETECTOR (OPTIONAL) Already own a detector or laser system? HighwayRadar can connect to it and become your all-in-one alert hub, showing radar band, direction, and signal strength, muting weak or unwanted signals automatically, and creating GPS lockouts so the false alarms you pass every day stop bothering you (even if your detector doesn't have this functionality). Supported hardware includes Uniden R8/R4/R9 (and "w" models), Valentine V1 Gen2, Radenso DS1, and AL Priority. You can even hear spoken readouts of the detected band and direction, a favorite of motorcycle riders and anyone who'd rather keep their eyes up.

Flocklight maps the automated license plate readers watching public streets in American cities. Flock Safety cameras, police plate readers, and the agencies running them, on one tactical map. The grid of license plate cameras around you was deployed quietly, with little public debate and few transparency requirements. Flocklight aggregates publicly available data from OpenStreetMap, DeFlock, and public-records sources to put every reported ALPR on a single map, so the people being watched can see who is watching. KEY FEATURES TACTICAL MAP: Every reported ALPR in your area, with operator attribution (Flock Safety, government, HOA, business, unknown) and visual indication of community-verified vs. public-records sources. CLOSEST CAMERA LOCK: The nearest camera is marked automatically with a target reticle that follows you as you move. A strip names it, tells you how far it is, which way to look, and what it is there to do. PERIMETER VIEW: See every camera within a 2-mile radius of your location, sorted by distance and bearing. Tap any pin for the full operator dossier. OPERATOR DOSSIER: Detailed profile for every camera: type, source, intersection, operator identity, data-sharing posture, policy status, and cross-references to partner transparency projects (DeFlock, LPR Maps, DontGetFlocked, GhostPlate). TRANSPARENCY INDEX: 743 US cities graded A through F on five policy and oversight metrics. See how your city ranks, what drives its grade, and how it has changed over time. SIGNAL FEED: Curated stream of ALPR-related news, court rulings, council votes, and policy changes. Filtered for signal, not noise. PLATE CHECK: Cross-reference a license plate against partner transparency projects to see what other community indices have documented. REPORT A CAMERA: Found a camera not on the map? Submit a report with photo and location. Approved reports go into the Flocklight community registry. ANONYMOUS BY DESIGN: Sign in with Apple to claim an anonymous operator callsign. Your real name and email stay private. Reports and watchlist sync across devices without tying anything to your identity. FLOCKLIGHT PRO Upgrade to Pro for the operator-grade transparency console: EXPOSURE DASHBOARD: Track how many ALPRs have captured you over the past 7 days, 30 days, or lifetime. CITY WATCHLIST: Pin cities, get notified when grades shift, and see policy votes as they happen. COMPARE CITIES: Side-by-side scoring, camera density, and agency-sharing breakdown. ADVANCED PROXIMITY ALERTS: Everyone gets the basic alert. Pro adds perimeter tuning, operator class filtering, quiet hours, and refire control. FOIA DEADLINE TRACKING: Filing is free. Pro arms the statutory countdown and reminds you two days out, on the deadline, and when an agency runs late. WEEKLY TACTICAL BRIEFING: Sunday evening digest of your week's captures, your hottest camera, and watched-city moves. - Monthly: $4.99 / month - Yearly: $29.99 / year + includes 7-day free trial WHY THIS EXISTS Mass automated surveillance is being deployed in American neighborhoods faster than the public can audit it. Flocklight is built so you do not need a FOIA lawyer to know what is pointed at your street. All camera data is publicly sourced. We do not track individuals, and we do not store license plate reads. Currently focused on US cities with population over 50,000.
