## Police Scanner Radio & Fire Reviews in United States

### ****- "Quiet volume"
This has been an issue for awhile, as Ive had multiple iPhones. It’s quiet coming out of the iPhone speaker turned all the way up. Turning on amplification just adds a lot of distortion. When I connect to a Bluetooth speaker, I can have volume half way and it’s plenty loud (sometimes I don’t always have my bt speaker to be able to connect to it.) All other apps that play audio are way louder than this app at full volume thru iPhone speaker. Other than that, it’s been pretty great
-- Grilledcheese92, 2024-12-30

### *---- "Ads are incredibly persistent"
Downloaded this and within a couple of minutes was bombarded with ads.  Microsoft Copilot could not terminate for several tens of seconds before I quickly decided I would just buy a decent scanner.  Bye.
-- Touch driver, 2024-12-29

### *---- "Not good"
This app is absolutely useless. The adds are so long that you never hear anything but the tones.  Before, the adds played in the background but now they mute everything making it useless. Thanks for nothing.
-- Still pissy, 2024-12-28

### ***** "Great App"
I like the Close Call feature, I don’t have to lookup individual counties, I get everything within 20 miles of my sitting location!
-- Wadena County Scanner Page, 2024-12-27

### ***** "Great"
24 hour at my house
-- Blue Goose - Juno, 2024-12-26

### *---- "Ads are ridiculous"
Full screen ads that last 10+ seconds when you only have a small window to hear the radio announcement.  Heck I’d pay for the app but they are out of their mind if they think I’ll pay $50 a year for the rest of my life for it. I could literally buy a police scanner for less.
-- WildRage, 2024-12-26

### ***** "Great Scanner"
Great scanner, of all the scanners I’ve tried this one is by far the best even with the ads, I love that I can hear what’s going on in MY neighborhood as well as other neighborhoods and cities, sometimes it’s a little jumbled because other dispatch’s are going out at the same time but all and all this one is the best
-- 4EverKatGirl, 2024-12-25

### ****- "Informed"
It’s useful
-- Anonymous Adrock, 2024-12-25

### ***-- "Ya kinda stink."
The ads are ridiculous. And the scanner doesn’t pick up half of what it should be compared to another scanner app installed. The ad cuts out the stuff that needs to be heard most of the time. They last like 3 minutes
-- Well, idk then., 2024-12-23

### ***** "Imposters"
THE WORD IS A LAMP UNTO MY FEET,
AND A LAMP UNTO MY PATH.
PSALM 119:105
-- Steven Earp, 2024-12-22

### ***** "If you support the force and love praying for those in need-download this app"
*Radio silence is dangerous *
-- Saintrogue7#, 2024-12-21

### ***** "Works great"
Always on and keeps you awareOf what is happening where you live in elsewhere play bags they have started a really great I recommend this product
-- Jwkone, 2024-12-20

### **--- "Let down"
I open the app every time hear sirens in my neighborhood bc unfortunately it seems to happen more frequently nowadays.  The problem is that is when you need to hear the scanner the most but you can’t bc you have to instead wait forever thru these obnoxious advertisements. They say on them that they’ll only be 5 or 10 seconds for example but that’s a LIE bc they “freeze” everytime. And then you can’t exit out afterwards wo it taking you to that app even though you never wanted to download it. It’s so frustrating bc when you finally do get back to the scanner everything you were needing to hear has already been said. Also, the codes aren’t right in my town at least and nobody does anything trying to find the actual codes so you will know. It’s pointless wo knowing the codes
-- GingerMama of 4, 2024-12-17

### ***** "Scanner"
I like scanner when I don’t got much to do. What I don’t like is it doesn’t really pick up my county .
-- Missy03091977, 2024-12-16

### ***-- "Cancel subscription"
I enjoyed this but on a fixed income thank you
-- dsfghjihdcmiigdnj, 2024-12-16

### *---- "Not my areas"
I’m not in  California, I’m in Connecticut
-- My Script. place, 2024-12-15

### ***** "It’s great!!"
Awesome app, lets me continue listening in the background while doing other stuff
-- )5:45)2$7:63)):)/8/&2$37, 2024-12-15

### ***** "Loud and clear"
Great.
-- Espiritista, 2024-12-14

### *---- "Misleading"
Advertises as police scanner but it’s mostly fire departments listed and none of the main cities near me are even listed?
-- gcmiller24, 2024-12-14

### *---- "Ever so often I hear a BLEEPING OUT and it sounds ridiculous!!! It is like YOU ARE Editing it out!!"
Some Mornings Scanners isn’t online but here lately it has been online and I enjoy listening to it every chance I get   Thanks for staying online! Monteigo 57
