Listen to live audio from over 4,700 police and fire scanners,
weather radios, and amateur radio repeaters from around the world
(primarily in the United States and Australia, with more being added
daily) on your phone.
Features:
● View scanners that are located nearest you, sorted by distance.
● View the top 50 scanners that have the most listeners (list updated every 5 minutes).
● View list of scanners added most recently (new additions are being added all the time).
● Add scanners you listen to the most to your Favorites list for quick access.
● Browse the directory of scanners by location or genre (public safety, air traffic, weather, railroad, etc).
● Enable notifications to be notified when lots of people (such as over
1000, for example) are listening to any scanner (indicating that
something big is happening). You can also be notified when scanners
located near you (or specific scanners of your choosing) have more than a
certain number of listeners.
● Add Scanner Radio Pro widgets and shortcuts to your phone’s home
screen for quick access (app cannot be installed on SD card to access
them).
● Add a “Scanner Radio Pro Favorite” shortcut to your home screen to
launch a scanner feed via an alarm clock app or automation app.
● Listen to Broadcastify.com’s audio archives to listen to audio that’s
been archived over the past 30 days. Note: You *must* have an account on
Broadcastify.com and purchase their “Premium Membership” ($15 for 6
months) in order to access their archives using the app. One use for
this feature is to have a scanner feed begin playing when your phone
connects to a specific Bluetooth device and then have it stop when the
connection to that Bluetooth device is no longer present.
In addition to the above features, you also get the following features with this version of the app:
● The ads are removed.
● The ability to record the audio.
● The Pro version allows you to adjust the sound of the audio via an
equalizer (version 4.x of the app only, does not work on the Galaxy S4).
● The Pro version adds player controls to the lock screen (version 4.x of the app only).
● The play button at the top of the directory screens and on the widgets
can be used to start listening without having to go to the player
screen.
● With the “Scanner Radio Pro Locale PlgIn” plug-in is also installed
you can have Locale/Tasker launch the app and have one of your Favorites
automatically begin playing based on one or more conditions or have the
app stop playing.
The audio is provided by volunteers (primarily for Broadcastify.com) using real scanner radios.
What’s New
● Modified the app so that it now connects to one pool of servers for
directory information and another set when checking for alerts in order
to ensure good directory server response times.
● Increased alert checking timeout (how long the app waits for a
response from the server when checking for alerts) from 15 seconds to 60
seconds.
