Comments on Crime Map: Local Safety Alerts for Android

★★★★★ Anthony Smithson · Aug 23, 2022
Picks up Kentucky State Police without much delay. Useful for Security Contractors and Weather Spotters, such as our group. "WANT" Western Kentucky Jackson Purchase Penny rile AREA
★★★★☆ virzantillweed eastwood · Jan 17, 2023
Please subdivide each state's list by county rather than the full list.
★★★★☆ Bill Hord · Feb 9, 2023
Like this app. Small issue showing all counties which frequency/repeater that they use. If it could scan as you travel pick up whatever you want to listen for that area you're traveling through.
★★★★☆ Johnnie Banks (jaybee3355) · Oct 31, 2023
Petty good application I had better scanner application.
★★★★★ Tracy Gilder · Aug 18, 2022
Why don't howell County public safety don't want nobody listening to them, we would like to know what is happening in our hometown
★☆☆☆☆ Vanessa Terrazas · Jan 14, 2026
I have a paid subscription, and I still get ads. The app only works for about 2 minutes and then it shuts off. Then I have to reengage it by going and searching for the channel that I want to listen to. Favoriting a channel does not work. Can't believe I paid for this.
★☆☆☆☆ Becky Burch · Jul 20, 2025
Second worse scanner app ever! When you get around to fixing the sound, so it works on 5G smartphones, and you can actually hear something including static coming out of the speaker I might give it another go right now it's not worth it to keep it on my device, so I uninstalled it.
★☆☆☆☆ Pauly Hager · Aug 5, 2022
It will not let me pick up Rowan county police
