9 Positive User Reviews for Radio ID

Hats off to the developer

Works flawlessly. When I found the app I thought there was no way it was legit. I downloaded it and it perfectly decodes my local LE/FIRE/EMS MDC1200 and QCII. Well worth $0.99 Maybe in a future version, users could be able to save specific unit ID’s and assign an alphanumeric tag to the ID? Example: “WPD 1K-40 portable” so when it decides the ID in the future, it displays your description instead of the raw ID.

Maybe broken now with IOS 12

Not positive but it worked fine on my IPhone 7+ but is now broken on my XS Max. Not sure why though.

Worked great...

It worked great until recently. When I bought my new iPhone. I am not sure if it was going to iOS 12 or the XS Max. It does not seem to be getting anything from the microphone. After a reinstall it still doesn't work. It also did not ask for permission to use the microphone.

MDC works great

Thanks for the continued support Matthew. I tested it on a local UHF analog system that still uses MDC1200, and the app works great!

Great app for many people

This app is great for amateur radio operators, paid and volunteer firefighters and other public safety radio coordinators, you can play the sound near the phone and it will detect it, it could use a little explanation of all the features and it needs to detect sooner because on shorter tones it has a issue hearing it but besides that this app is a lifesaver for scanner listeners, volunteer firefighters programming all pagers, many different uses just for the tone finding, again I would like a ma

Great tool!

This app helped diagnose an issue with our dispatch. IT has been part time during this whole pandemic ordeal so it really saved us time to figure out what tones we were and weren’t getting. Thank you for this great tool!

Great App!

I very much appreciate this app. It does as its intended. One feature I’d love to see is adding the ID’s as a “contact” if you will. For example “unit 3248 PTT ID” can be renamed in the app to be something like “Engine 36 Alpha Radio”. Other than that leisure feature I would love to see added, great application and would highly recommend to any scanner enthusiasts.

Extremely accurate for two tone paging

I was a little skeptical when I first heard about this app, but it’s extremely accurate. More so than Audacity and Uniden in my experience. Highly, highly recommend.

Outdated

No idea when this app was last updated - but even though it worked well on my old iPhone, it’s not configured for newer iPhones with no home button. You can’t swipe out of the app. If you have an iPhone X/XS model, do not download this app.
