Comments on Pierce County Scanner Classic for Android
★★★★★Kevin Booth· Jan 4, 2020
I recently installed this app and love it because now I can listen to what the Sumner pigs are doing beside harassing the homeless people here in Sumner and the same goes for the Puyallup pigs and Peirce County pigs
★★★★☆Angel Thymera· May 18, 2020
Great tool to use when you're bored and want to hear what's going on in the community. There have been times I was going to go somewhere and then heard over the scanner there was a blocking accident that would've prevented me from going - so it's saved me more than a couple trips. It reminds me Police are human too and go through great sacrifice for our benefit. But the app will cut out after certain time (15-60mins) if screen turns off. Batt Optimzr is off. Can you guys keep it awake longer plz
★★★★☆Blah Blurg· Jan 17, 2023
I'd rate 5 stars if clips didn't cut off mid-transmission. Other than that, this is the best scanner app I've found. It's the only app that scans and plays ALL of Pierce County. Which is super cool. Far better than having to switch between north, south, etc. etc.

Why block priority tone? App skips A LOT. If these two things get fixed, 5 stars.
★★☆☆☆Andrea k· Feb 17, 2024
Used to love love love this app until the last update. Now I can't find anything. Can't find the city/ station I want to listen to. And when I do pick a station it bumps to the next one and the next one and the next one, it won't stay on the station I want. So very frustrating with this app now, might delete if I can't figure things out!

I had this app, but uninstalled it today, because this new version, I don't like. I liked the previous one before it was updated. If you go back to the original, I would love to download it again.
