Police Scanner X

Thank you for a great app it does work but if y'all don't care to make the app speed up a little bit faster and sometimes it'll glitch but other than that like if I go out of one channel and go back to it from another Channel it won't let me access that same channel that I just came out of but a big thank you for the app it does work pretty decently.

When it works, it is great. I hear static more often than not even with full service. But, when it is clear, it is great to hear everything. I noticed Mecklenburg County Police scanner is not on the list anymore...That defeats the purpose for me. I like to be "in the know" when it comes to my community. It makes me feel safer.

My friend loaded a similar app on her phone telling me her's was better but as we both listened to our phones everything was the same except for the fact that I heard everything several seconds before she did using Police Scanner X and in real life those several seconds could mean the world to someone putting this app to use ! Great Job!

I love listening to Chicago police on the weekends. Great app to use for that. Sometimes I just check out other areas. Works great for me. Update. Most of the time there's so much static I can't make out what's being transmitted, even local channels

I'm getting fed up with the scanner continuing to shut off for no reason. When I first started listening to the scanner it was fire, police and ambulance. Now it's police and fire. Used to be able to turn it on at about 8am until 11pm now 5 mins at a time if possible . Also at one time it was kinda hard to listen to because there was so much chatter . I'll never recomend this app. Soon I finish typing this I'm deleting the app. Never get any feedback from app admin or anyone connected with it.

This app would not turn off. It continues in the background and there was only 1 way to turn it off and that was to uninstall it. Force stop did nothing. Other police scanner apps have way more channels and you can actually hear them. This one is clear then choppy then clear back in forth. Needs alot of work.

It usually works pretty good. However, the very few times that I have had any kind of issues with this app I've ended up having to power off my phone and restarting it just to resolve the problem, because just backing out and closing the app doesn't work Only twice now I experienced the app broadcasting with a very staticy-echo playing like there is two playing at once, that again is only resolved by powering off my entire phone. Otherwise the App seems to work great!

i use this app religiously! it's a great app! i will listen to it to figure out where all the action is going down, and then avoid it like the plauge!! i would rate 5 stars but sometimes it has play back issues and ill have to force close and reopen 2 or 3 times for it to work...on a scale of 1-5 ......( ""5 being i would recommend to anyone"" ) I would give it a 5...👍🏼👍🏼...work on Arapahoe County/Aurora city police and Denver county/District 5

Clear and easy to use. Thanks! i drive for a living and selecting patrol along the route gives accurate real-time traffic issues and locations. especially useful during winter storms. Has some issues closing, though, would be nice to have option to close in the drop down. Will give 5 stars when fixed.

I already did I gave this app a 5-star rating and was giving a glowing review and just as I was closing my last sentence and I mean last I literally had seven words left to go before an ad somehow popped up on my screen for about 1 second then I somehow was kicked off. got kicked off so I thought and very least it would be saved or restored so that I could just pick up where I left off.

Only been installed a few hours just got chance to listen too. I was really liking this app. Until there are no settings to customize, it want stay running in back ground, if your screen rotates it stops, u can't scan through channels. it be great if had options but I hate feeling like i am controled by what the app only let's me do. sorry time to find another

Drop-down menus for search by location won't load, fails to connect or audio won't play on selected channels. This app used to work wonderfully but I guess that's what happens when a developer forgets to update, also it used to have my local city as a listening option but that disappeared over a year ago.

It's great for county and city in my town for sure. Just wish it wouldn't randomly shut down after 10mins or start getting glitchy. Gotta force shut down and restart the app for it to work. But when I hear things going on in town I turn it on and it's delayed but maybe 30 seconds. But I'm sure it's due to the 2nd party steamer broadcasting. I enjoy it and don't see me deleting it 👌

Worthless. Helicopters circling overhead and I couldn't find out what was going on. It tuned in a few times for a few minutes but wouldn't stay connected (wifi or cell service). I downloaded a different app and had no issues. manhunt for a shooter in the neighborhood. would have been valuable info the first time rather than futzing around trying to get it to work. worthless!

I like the app it works well the only disappointing part is it shuts off when my screen shuts off or if I spend any time in a different app. I would like for it to stay on, running in the background until I shut it down myself other than that it works great. UPDATE- the shutting off is a real pain in the ass it doesn't run more than 10 minutes without having to restart dropping my rating from a 3 to a 2

Does its job, and seems to be on time a little better than other police scanner apps that my friends have had. This app seems to relay information a few seconds quicker than most. I wouldve given it 5 stars, but 2 things prevented that .... 1. I am currently reinstalling the app because all of a sudden i hear nothing when i hit play... Not second or minutes are counting and nothing plays. At first i thought just not much action, but i listened for a long period of time and heard nothing.. 2. It can be impossible to understand sometimes because of how staticy the communications come in. I know it can't possibly be that way on their radios (the cops, ambulance, etc) or they'd never know what they were doing. Obviously we can't expect the same quality as what they would get but i feel like I should at least be able to understand somewhat clear always.

I have a few issues with the app but I enjoy using and listening to what I can. First, not all channels are shown in my area. Also, there are times when it intermittently picks the signal up/plays audio out on my phone. The app will flip from pause to play making audio choppy and unrecognizable. Last issue I have is that the bar it leaves in the notifications for the shortcut to play/pause audio will sometimes stay there even when force closing the application until I restart my phone.
