Action Scanner - Police, Fire, EMS and Amateur Radio App Reviews

hi, like this app, but wish i could get Fort Mcmurray alberta on this! please see what you can do :-) thanks

Quite happy with the selection of feeds. Only thing I dont like is how annoying it seems to be trying to stop on a channel manually while scanning.

Really like the new version. The new interface, the real time database updates and the ability to scan up to 4 feeds at the same time makes this the best app available, period.

Such an amazing app. Now with backgrounding its even more amazing!

So, the top free app much the same as this didnt have the main region of British Columbia, Canada, which is the coastal region. I was looking for Victoria. The capital of the province. So upset I paid money for this for the exact same selection. Totally unfair.

So far the best Police/Ems/Fire, I can find on App store,with the new interface & options.Wow great work Geoffrey !

The ONLY Scanner app Ive found that allows the scanning of four feeds at the same time. And you can store 4 separate sets (banks) of four feeds each. Unless you need an app that records a scanner feed, this is the one to spend money on. Its regularly updated with the latest available feeds (NONE of these scanner apps supply their source feeds - so no complaints, please, that your community or desired feed isnt there - the software developer has no control over this). You can even manually add a feed url on the rare occasion you find one you want thats not available on this scanner - I did once, but only a few days later it was included in of the available updated feeds on the list. Extremely pleased with this app.

So far this is the best scanner app Ive come across, but, I would love it if this app has a sleep timer! I often listen to my scanner at night while falling asleep and it would be awesome to be able to set a timer to shut it off. I cant find this feature with any scanner app yet. That said. Still love this app!!

Not the best Ive had

I tried a few similar apps and I like this one the best :)

I listen to it often. Being a former EMT, I can understand the frustration and excitement of the crews and dispatchers. It demonstrates the great team-work of both groups.

Bad search data. No categories search. Only a dozen of countries...

This is my favorite police & fire scanner! The Police+ (paid) scanner is my now my 2nd favorite. Not sure why theres arent more postive comments in 2016! Maybe because its an older app? Not sur. Reasons why I like this scanner is because my favorite radio channels are listed & scanned on same page simultaneously, has a global map, and a Ten-Code listing for convienence.

There are many apps that let you listen to different radio frequencies, but this is the first Ive seen that lets you LISTEN TO UP TO FOUR FREQUENCIES AT A TIME. It loops through them and stops when chatter is found, and moves on when it stops, LIKE A REAL SCANNER! You can even set the volume and SQUELCH (wow) for each frequency! You even get four banks of channels (up to four freqs each). There interface is logical and the app is easy to use. I understand the four channel limit: youre streaming four channels at once which could be a bandwidth hog. Would like more banks though... Im hesitant to give it five stars, since the UI can be a little glitchy and the app dies easily, but it does what it promises well and offers features Ive not seen anywhere else. I think the app just needs some tweaks here and there to get it dialed in. Please keep developing!

This unique and useful live scanner radio app has a number of features that go above and beyond what most other scanner apps can provide. The multiple feed scanning works great, and back ground scanning performs well. The quick select favorite groups are also very useful.

Hands down the best scanner app around.... And the only one that actually scans multiple links!! Also displays location and has a great multi-colored visual audio display. Amazing!! Good job guys!!

Scanner App is great. BUT, Cant run other apps while scanner is running. If I want to go to twitter or text a friend, the police scanner will shut down. It will run in the background, as long as youre not trying to run another app on iPhone 4. Programers please fix.

Everything works great now! The developer has been very responsive to all of my emails for help.

At one time this was the best scanner app in my opinion. But not much has changed over the past few years. Its time for the dev to play catch up and get his hard work back in line with other apps of the same type. Searching for channels by county is cumbersome. A universal version supporting the iPad would be great.

One of the best scanner apps on the market!! This is the ONLY scanner app that lets you program multiple channels into the app which makes it the only TRUE SCANNER on the market. Also the tech support is outstanding. I emailed a question w/a minor issue and they got back w/a solution immediately. This is a 5
