Comments on RF Analyzer for Android

★★★★☆ Michael Huddleson · Sep 18, 2021
I currently have this running on a Raspberry Pi 3b+ and a TLDR dongle however it does not label the frequency currently being displayed.
★★★★★ Vazgen Sargsyan · Nov 23, 2025
The only program that works properly on Android. I would really like to see the functionality of adding channels to memory. And sweep functionality to see spectrum with very large span
★★★★★ icabob crane · Jul 11, 2025
Can someone update this app to use rtl sdr v4 with the automatic unconvert for lower frequencies.
★☆☆☆☆ don t · Jan 10, 2023
Works for a few seconds then static. I downloaded the relist driver and said it installed correctly. Then I downloaded RF analyzer. Set it up properly, but the only station I could get was 1 FM, and 1 WX. Everything else was static. And then it would only work for a few seconds and disconnect. I'm on a galaxy s21 ultra, so it couldn't be the phone. I guess it's time to give up.
★★☆☆☆ vfcs · Jan 18, 2022
Did not work on my S8 (could not detect the RTL-SRD Dongle) whereas other SRD apps worked.
★☆☆☆☆ Clay Richard · Oct 1, 2022
Doesn't work on the Moto One 5g Ace. It doesn't detect my RTL- SDR dogle. The dogle works on my PC and I tested the on the go cable with a flash drive.
★☆☆☆☆ s · May 9, 2021
Doesn't work, my phone a moto g6 supports usb otg, I have an otg cable, I've downloaded the rtl SDR driver, I'm using a generic rtl SDR dongle, 820t2, which powers up, tried all the settings, app says it cannot find a device.
