## XRS Connect Description
XRS™ Connect - A New Era In UHF CB Radio
XRS™ Connect is an Australian Made radio platform designed to be smart, adaptable and rugged. Featuring a professional grade speaker microphone complete with a class leading 2-watt speaker, customisable buttons and a high contrast OLED screen guaranteeing a crystal clear, anti-glare display. 
Enabled by Bluetooth® wireless technology, XRS™ Connect is the first of a new generation of connected UHF CB radios with unique features never seen before. They are the first ever UHF CB radio with app control, and as with many other smart devices, XRS™ Connect products are software upgradable via the apps, keeping users up to date with the latest features and technology.

XRS™ Connect
The XRS™ Connect App combines easy to navigate menus to control the features and settings of your GME XRS™ Connect UHF CB radio.
With a quick swipe of the finger, you can quickly create and share your personalised scan lists, access over 20,000 Australian and New Zealand registered analogue frequencies including Police, Fire, Volunteer Rescue and many more and receive free software upgrades.

XRS™ Connect Location Services
XRS™ Connect Location Services enables users to send, receive and display their GPS location with each transmission. Combining the power of XRS™ Connect UHF CB radio with the GPS engine and display of a smartphone or tablet, enabled by Bluetooth® Smart technology, XRS™ Connect Location Services creates a whole new world of possibilities for UHF CB radio. Users are also able to send, receive and display a short text ‘status’ on the tail of transmissions, selecting from either pre-defined or user-defined statuses. 

XRS™ Connect Location Services offers offline map caching, giving users the option to download and store detailed maps – ensuring accurate map display in areas with no cellular coverage. XRS™ Connect Location Services enables users to log and save an unlimited number of points of interest using the intuitive user interface – perfect for asset mapping on large properties and revisiting those ‘secret’ spots in the 4WD. 

XRS™ Connect Location Services displays the user-designated ID or &#039;tag&#039; of each XRS™ radio within transmission range, allowing easy identification and tracking of multiple users. Create custom groups to easily manage contacts and filter display results.

XRS™ Active Mute
XRS™ Connect Active Mute allows users to manually mute the radio when receiving a phone call to their mobile phone. The XRS™ Connect App is able to detect incoming phone calls and automatically mute the XRS™ Connect radio for the duration of the call, ensuring uninterrupted phone conversations. 

XRS™ Connect Active Mute uses smart phone and Bluetooth technology to either mute or lower the XRS™ Connect radio volume automatically when the user makes or receives a phone call. This allows the user to focus on their conversation rather than manually adjusting the volume on the XRS™ Connect radio. 

XRS™ Voice Playback
XRS™ Connect Voice Playback, enables users to record all voice transmissions received from other radios. Ideal for noisy cabins or for users who are in and out of their vehicles, this feature makes missing transmissions an issue of the past.

XRS™ Connect Voice Playback records and stores the first 30 seconds of each received transmission, with a total recording time of 12 minutes. This exciting feature is available in every XRS™ Connect model through our XRS™ Connect app.

## XRS Connect Reviews in Australia

### *---- "Quite buggy"
I honestly expected better for an app that is such an integral part of a high end commercial product like this. It’s practically impossible to manually set receive only frequencies, the locate function doesn’t work for finding nearby frequencies, it throws error messages and is generally buggy. Very disappointed with it. Maybe give the XRS models a miss in future.
-- D_Ticker, 2024-12-12

### ****- "Thanks for the patch"
Much better now crashing issue is fixed thanks
-- Scott_86, 2024-09-30

### *---- "Won’t Run"
I can’t even locate any troubleshooting for it because everything assumes the app starts. But it won’t. Instantly closes every time. iPhone 14 PRO MAX
-- Bushy569, 2024-09-30

### *---- "App crashes"
App constantly crashes when wifi and mobile data is on
-- grhvdhdh, 2024-09-30

### **--- "Not compatible with iOS 18"
The app is not compatible with iOS 18, it crashes as soon as it loads. Love the concept, but the execution is not quite there.
-- Goin Fishin, 2024-09-29

### ***-- "App not recognising unit"
I’ve rated this 3 star purely for the fact I have witnessed it being useful and very handy, although my app will not recognise my unit and will not connect. Since trying it the first time I have tried getting back into the app and now it won’t even open. I click on the app from my Home Screen, and it flashes on the screen for a second and forces the app to close
-- Turbowhiting, 2024-09-28

### *---- "App crashes when opening"
Removed the app due to draining iPhone 12pro max battery very quick. Reinstalled App and now I can’t open it. It crashes when opening.  Now I see why the app has very poor reviews. Not happy about it.
-- Shlongman181, 2024-09-27

### **--- "Has been a great app… HOWEVER. It will no longer load…"
Used it in the past and the app has been great, however, tried launching the app earlier and it continues to send me back to my Home Screen of my phone.
-- thenamezcamo, 2024-09-27

### *---- "Crashes constantly"
I have an iPhone 13pro and the app flashes onto the screen before disappearing in a cloud of smoke! I have deleted then reinstalled several times to no avail. Help please!
-- KevSmth, 2024-09-27

### ***-- "Why no CarPlay 🤷‍♂️"
App works great,  but no CarPlay?!

Why?
