Comments on Drive Smarter for Android

★★★★★ Chris Tripp · Apr 12, 2026
Helps to look ahead. Provides a good UI as well as an accurate navigation map.
★★★★☆ john yarbrough · Mar 14, 2026
Connected to a Cobra Rad 700i using a Pixel 10 Pro XL. Connected to my radar detector on second try. Works well on phone but not when using Android Auto. When using with Android Auto the speed is way off and fluctuates badly. For example if I am going 40mph the app shows I am going 7 to 14mph. Completely unusable that way. Again not an issue if using without connection to Android Auto. Also, the posted speed limit is not available most places, only major freeways. Really 3.5 stars.
★☆☆☆☆ JASON · May 4, 2026
This is the worst experience I have ever had with an app. I would not recommend the escort redline 360c. The app doesn't work at all. You are better off getting pulled over for speeding and pay the ticket than buy an escort radar detector. I would give a negative 5 star if they had the option.
★☆☆☆☆ Cambell White · Apr 23, 2026
Hate that you completely shut down iRadar App. Drive Smarter map is clunky & feels cheap. No Landscape mode? No simplified view like the iRadar app? The map freezes constantly. I went with Cobra because of the iRadar app. I didn't want a damned map forced on me, I just wanted a radar Detector & alert system. I want the simple iRadar screen back. The one that just has my speed, distance & direction of detection arrows, & a bar across the top for color coded alerts. Looking for an old iRadar apk
★★☆☆☆ cparks1 · Feb 26, 2026
This app sucks. Why does it take 10 minutes to connect to my camera for me to view the gallery? And why does it fail to connect 2/3 of the time? What's the point of having the app when one of the core functions barely works?
