Police Scanner + Fire Radio App Reviews

Not bad so far I haven’t really used it much

App works well

I listen every night and it’s always reliable.

As a scary cat person I like knowing what’s going on where I live! And that’s when Police Scanner came in!! It was very helpful at sometimes, but others not so much. It would go blank, and in the morning it would say something like”Put up the HOLD sign! I’m gonna go see what he wants!” And “1845 1845 bring em here” but other than that it was helpful at some times and others not so much!

Best app in the world and is better than those other apps but I would like the review to not be reminded so many times just to demand it but otherwise it’s a really good app

Not a lot of scanner feed anymore

Great scanner. Crystal clear

I’ve used this app for years. Started when my kiddo was a junior volunteer firefighter in Connecticut. We used to listen to different countries firefighters and it was a learning experience. Hardly any police stations captured anymore due to digital. Love this app!

Many of the conversations sound slurred. Sharper clearer sound would be much appreciated.

This is pretty cool

I like it but can’t pick up the police department

Very good the best …! The other scanner apps try to be like this..! REAL N GET THIS

I love this app! It’s so clear and it isn’t expensive!! Definitely recommend!!!

Easy to use, clean and simple. It also has some nice options available for backgrounds and more. Unless they take it away and try to charge me, I definitely recommend it.

I have two police scanner apps. In all honesty, I generally always use the other one I have. But I wanted to check this one out today because I hadn’t seen much action on my other app. The only thing that I say would make it better, would be if you had access to state police scanners

I love this police scanner and i listen to it everyday. it’s good to have around. The problem i have it is it went off line and it came back on and it did not have a volume. I would like for the support or the developer to look at and see if they can fix the volume. It only has the word police or fire and no sound with it . I hope you would fix it so that i can have something to listen to . It’s a good police scanner.

When the power companies website crashed it kept the community informed of what was going on and where to best shelter.

As a Great Lakes freighter watcher I like to listen to the marine radio traffic at the various ports. I’ve been able to do away with having to carry my marine scanner and just use my phone with my marine traffic app and use Police Scanner at same time. The upgrade was worth it!

This thing works great.

I have a couple of actual police scanners that I listen to at home and in the car. This is a great addition as background sound for times I'm using my phone or the iPad for internet use, mail, writing and during other tasks. The app sometimes surprises me and I hear things the scanners miss. Excellent app.

Good app. Very useful

Tried most on the App Store and like this one enough to purchase! Very easy interface, customizable background, can re-order scanners you follow too. Very nice job!!

There’s time that it doesn’t come in clear. That’s happening a lot more now.

I like this app but had to pay for it a second time to add it to my iPhone. Is this normal?

This is the best app that I can use because I can go to my favorite agencies that I have selected but there are some agencies that I can't enter.

I have used for many years and find this app very imformative and helpful when there is crisis going on in city, state, or world. Thank you for having it updated and available.

Best ever. I’m a retired 30 yr Police Veteran and listen to the scanner most nights. Love it

Very cool looking user friendly app!

This is definite game changer. No more bouncing around looking for platforms. Easy to use a d very helpful

Helps know who my need extra help in small town

I have loved this app forever. I updated today and it says I will get no ads. It’s constantly every few seconds giving me an ad. The most irritating is Google. It refuses to leave the screen and I want nothing to do with signing into Google for an account remove the ads like you say you will once I updated please. Then I’ll give you five stars.

You are the greatest by far!

As a retired Chief I enjoy listening to the scanners from various locations. Brings back memories of the past. I did my 30 years and enjoyed every one of them on the job.

Question: how often are frequency changes made? Memphis police made change recently. Hard to justify cost of a physical scanner with this app. Thanks.

No hidden fees or subscriptions. And more stations than you can imagine! From railroad to comedy. Try it I did and I love it. You can set an alarm to wake you to your favorite station. Get it, you will not be sorry. Curt U.

Good variety of channels and user friendly.

I use this program on my iPad mini and my iPhone 13 and allows me to keep track of what's going on in my area of the world

I live by I44. Like to Listen to see if anything bad happened. Most of the time I could not understand until upgrade. As you can probably guess I am old. And just like to hear what’s going on. L

Great app, never fails, my wife is a fire dispatcher, the app is only seconds behind true dispatch…I use the Pro version.

There’s no static and the voices are clear

Excellent scanning features regarding police and fire services my favorite California county’s of Los Angeles and Ventura were the action never stops. And all the other features this app contains.

Mo city pd lost them!

I live in Mooresville NC, Iredell County. The fire And police coverage was very good for a long time but has now disappeared completely.

An app that connects to the local police, fire and EMS a few times per month is worth nothing. We turn it on when the fire siren goes off and just occasionally we’ll hear a few words. Most of time it’s just silent. I’ve never had an app that performs worse.

To be fair this review is based only on how the app works in my area. This used to be a really good app but something has changed and for this to be a police scanner app I get very few police interactions. Its mostly EMS and Fire and while I’m not talking down to those guys, I have the app because it’s called a police scanner! If you live in or around Anderson SC buy a real scanner otherwise you won’t hear much of the police at all. Same for the other police scanner apps as well.
