Used to really rely on this app! As of latest update there is no audio! Essentially useless without any audio! Have deleted & restarted without success?! Please fix this glitch!!!
Version 3.1.1 review

Update for 3.2.1 I like the look of the new icons and traffic directions will have to wait for an incident to support them. But i do not see the time on scene for the responders at all anymore. It used to be on call page so easy to tell what was important and what was a false alarm. Then they moved it to the icon so you had to click on each call. Now it is gone altogether. I know space was a factor before but that really does help to know if a fire call was critical and took 2 hours or just a burning pot on a stove and took 20 minutes. Update for version 3.12 Still works great. Occasionally agencies will change their protocols or equipment and the app may not get all the calls right away, rare but does happen. Not the apps fault but they get it resolved quickly. Local agency recently upgraded their radios and that made it harder to pick up the tactical channels used by units on a call. Still not perfect but they are working on it. Update for 3.2.6 - Version 3.1.1 had occasional loss of agency but it was noted on their website with a work around until this fix came out. Have not had any other issues with losing settings and app continues to be very useful. Only thing I miss is on the Active/Recent calls page they took off the field about how long the call lasted. That helped to differentiate between False Alarm calls and calls that were important without having to click on each one individually. Update for 3.1.1. Talked to developer and settings seem to have stabilized now. New lower light bulb wattage on agency makes it easier to read unit status. Will need to test more as well. Update: 3.03. The settings to alert me when incidents happen keep getting wiped out every few days. No rhyme or reason as to why this happens. I have iPhone 5 with IOS 6. Reducing to 2 Stars. Good app if it was more stable and they tweaked the color effects, see review below. Version 2.x never did this. If you have 2.x stay there until they resolve some of these issues. Update: 3.02 the notifications settings keep resetting to none and I have to keep turning them on. Not sure why but it is annoying to keep checking on them. Also the flashlight look indicating the dept being monitored has a glare below it that makes the top incident hard to read. No reason to have it and should be removed. Original review: Thanks for fixing the maps in v 3.01. Finally able to see the text again. I like the ability to easily switch between multiple agencies. Found out my problem with broadcast button. It is a push button, not a sliding button. Push the picture of the microphone on the right of the slider and it turns on. Push again and it turns off. A little confusing since it looks like you should slide it to the right to turn it on. Giving it 5 stars with the new readable maps and now that I can hear again Thanks

What happened to the total time of the incident that used to show? What does “Unknown Incident” mean? It would be helpful to have a “legend” explaining the codes heard on the radio in Jefferson County Colorado.
ADD TIMES BACK UNDER CLEARED CALLS SHOWING HOW LONG THEY LASTED.

Overall an excellent app that allows you to stay aware of what's going on around you and possibly help someone in need. If your area isn't on there, it's because your department hasn't picked it up yet. They recently did an update and took away the time that showed how long a cleared call lasted. It would be nice to be added back.
