New to the R8. It is so sensitive that it alerts almost constantly with superfluous radar alerts. The R8 Companion is a whole new level. All the annoying alerts are channeled elsewhere and the important ones receive priority. This is a must have app for your R8.
I’m in the process of upgrading my detector from an R7 to the R8. Main reason is I own several Mac computers and it is a real hassle to upgrade firmware. For this reason I was looking at the Escort 360c because it has automatic downloads, apparently via the iPhone to the web. A real good upgrade to your software would be to add the ability to download Uniden upgrade via wireless or BTB. I’d be willing to pay more for your app. In the meantime, I decided to spend more money tp buy a cheap PC which I probably won’t use for at least a year. An affition to an auto download to your app. Would have saved me $$. Re: BT, does the R8 show up on iPhone BT? Don’t see anything listed on iPhone.
Stop so annoying faults
Best app for an R8. Really nice to change in the fly.
Direction or speed go haywire. Go south it will display every direction. Works for half a minute. I phone Promax 14
Helpful app with a lot of features. Will help quiet your R8 with more options than the detector itself offers. Organization of functions and screen layout could be better. Would be nice to have more granular control over specific audio alerts that play over Bluetooth.
Feature request: my r8 always has power through mirror tap. Don't have accessories tap in this location unfortunately. Therefore, I have the r8 to auto shutdown after 1hour to conserve car battery. While I'm home during this 1 hour, the r8 app keeps connecting and disconnecting. Any possibility to avoid this?
I bought an R8 after owning a R3 for 3+years and I love my R3. After seeing the reviews on the 8 I decided to try it out. Noticed it was very chatty at first but after adjusting some settings it was much better. I found this app looking for Uniden items in the App Store. Noticed it was not free so originally was very hesitant to purchase this app. Best decision I ever made. I drive 4 hours a day round trip and it’s mostly highway I am on. I do speed enough to get pulled over 10 to 15 mph over. My R3 has saved me many times but was chatty. This new R8 with this app is silent the whole way home now. Friday night on the way home a highway patrol car was going in the opposite direction and I was getting a KA warning so I decided to slow down. About 2 miles for driving I passed him and was doing 5 over. Highly recommend this app. The price point is definitely worth it if you want a silent ride and ease of use.
Support this dev as this is a great app for those radar geek and novice alike. Even novices will get a better and smarter radar detector adding value to their investment.
I have now had the opportunity to spend some time with V1 Driver and R8 Companion (and DS1 Companion). They each are similar and each are different. But in the end, I choose Companion. It is a seemed, easy to understand, and intuitive partner to my R8. I never look at my phone screen and wonder..what is that reading or message. Sometimes with V1, and it’s a great app too, I just don’t understand what it is doing. As well, I find Companion far quieter. The ultimate judge is my wife. She hates radar detectors. Can’t stand the noise. Companion has resolved that.
