What they complain about
- Audio is often chopped up and hard to understand
- Location settings fail and show random distant cities
- Recent updates removed useful sorting and filtering features
- Customer support is completely non-existent and unhelpful
- Subscription feels like a cash grab for basic info
Very cool app
Great for making you aware of local crime
Ads and more ads
App used to be good. Now it's nothing but ads and subscription requests of $39 year! No longer even showing incidents at my location.
Stop censoring out certain things
Love the app but it would be better if you could please stop censoring out some of the stuff.
New update
They just updated the app, it used to be the free version you could listen to up to 5 calls. Now you can’t even see your local alerts, they have alerts that are “premium only” when looking on the map… not sure how it’s appropriate to cash grab on reported open fire but okay. I liked this app, I’d rather see more ads than be forced to pay a subscription just to use it the way I did, but oh well, there’s plenty of other apps out there. Just sucks to see a good one get deleted from them pulling a cash grab.
Could be alot better
This app is ok, but I follow one specific place, the city I live in because my daughter is a 911 dispatcher and I like to listen to her calls, and this app for the past 2 days has given me notifications from everywhere but my city. I do not have my mileage set way out but it keeps showing me calls from cities miles and miles and hrs away, I'm very disappointed
Awesome app!
Nothing comes even close to this app! Within minutes you can hear calls! The amount they give you for the free version is awesome!
Misinformation
Nothing thus app says is true. Each time something came across this app I investigated and not one incident was true.
Not the best
I feel like there is no difference from the free version to the paid premium version. I don’t get many notifications, and it’s always adding more calls days after the initial incident was to begin with. Not worth the money for sure.
Best dispatch and alert app
I love how you get updated actively and daily on everything that’s going on around you locally. It has all alerts and detailed dispatch calls including locations and any other information needed. It also has a feature where you can see all the local pedos etc
TERRIBLE! Nothing is in order.
I really don’t know why I still have this app downloaded. The simplest things just suck on this app. None of the events are in any kind of chronological order. Why? When I click on recent, the events are weeks old. It’s the most ridiculous app. Simple technology just not used. Figure it out already. You definitely have advertising revenue figured out, why not sorting tech? Dumb! Lazy.
Meep
Not very good for my corner of the world. Not much gets reported although there’s sirens daily. Added star for the easy interface
Great App
This has become my favorite
Poor
Incidents do not appear in chronological order (or in any logical order that I can see). What is happening now is buried beneath things that occurred up to a week ago. Multiple sirens respond to an incident close by and I see no notification of what is happening. And now my feed is filled with incidents from around the country. Just seems like lazy app building. And they want people to subscribe to this to get rid of ads? C’mon.
Not that great
The app tells you about things that are going on around you but everything on the audio on the pay site is so chopped up. You can hardly understand what’s going on. I enjoy knowing what’s going on around me, but it’s not worth paying for me. Just download the app and read what’s going on near you cause you’re not gonna get anything about the audio. Their beta tabs are just aged, honestly not sure how they picked these. They’re a week old and not updated often.
People
People hurt
Unable to get reports from my city
Since last update the reports from my location are gone. I only get reports from the cities around me and sometimes random cities hours away from me. Every time this app is updated it gets worse instead of improving.
Going downhill, buy a scanner
Was an ok app with room for improvement. But after the new update I will just use my scanner ( a bearcat is cheap money)
Great
Great
Fake advertising
If you are claiming free scanning in your ads you shouldn’t have to pay for something I could get my hands on by paying on in the first place
Most recent update removed the features I use
I was really enjoying this app! I liked it so much that I pay for the monthly subscription. This most recent update, removed the ability to sort by time and location My saved locations are returning unexpected results. It appears the radius is no longer working in the configuration settings. Needless to say, I am going to unsubscribe from premium.
Great app
This is a great app to have and let you know what’s going on in your town. What close what offenders are close? I love you. Have to keep me informed on what’s going on in my city.
Somehow getting worse
This app is progressively getting worse with every update. In my “current location” recent feed I’m now seeing neighboring cities and even results for my entire county.
Great app
Keeps me informed of what’s happening in my area
Zero customer service
I’ve been trying anyway possible to get customer service and they just don’t exist so good luck
Crime radar
Works great I hear police calls in my town.
Mad
I want my 9.99 back I just hit the button didn’t even put my information in and they took my money how can I get this off I don’t want a reoccurring 9.99 every month
