Comments on Scanner Radio - Police Scanner for Android

★★★★☆ Amy · Oct 7, 2026
Awesome, the scanner is clear, can understand what is going on. I love the transcription history as well. Never seen that before on a Scanner App. I improvement would be to have the areas covered by that "County" as some areas have combined.
★★★★★ DeWayne Harris · Sep 10, 2026
Is there a way to hear police only? I don't need fire. Most of the time it's boring calls with fire department. It's mainly medical issues.
★★★★☆ Pamela M. · Sep 23, 2026
Not impressed with the latest upgrade. The transcript is COMPLETELY inaccurate, and I don't like that I have to put my glasses on just to look for the 3 tiny little dots in order to set the sleep timer. It was much better before. The transcript is a cool idea, but it's completely useless when you can't trust what it says.
★★★★★ Frank Nadolski · Oct 5, 2026
I spend hours listening to the major events going on. A broadcasting account is mandatory to get the most out of the scanner to hear what happened before the event alert goes out. Highly recommended
★☆☆☆☆ Dave C · Sep 25, 2026
One of the worst apps ...can not listen to anything but chopped garbled stations, even metro area police and fire. And good luck trying to cancel they make it near impossible to.
★☆☆☆☆ John Luna · Nov 3, 2026
Desperately require a major redesign! Pay wall ads block EMERGENCY traffic. It lags behind real radio transmissions by as much as 90 seconds. The text transcription function is a total waste of clock cycles. It's 100% wrong, 100% of the time. The wrong transcript is even faster than the audio somehow, even though audio from the earth to the moon is nearly as fast as the speed of light... yet this app, no... this app is slow AF! I will never pay for this app. You can't even lock outside chatter
★☆☆☆☆ K S · Oct 21, 2026
Ai is not helpful so where are you? During all alerts or prompting my local for several months now, I see the scanner is connecting and then scanner offline. I've restarted Android and tried all I know. This is not an issue with the scanners. It's a local setting I never changed but can't figure out.
