Some troubles

I love this app, and being able to quickly find feeds from a large number of agencies. However, the audio is choppy, I lose a lot of the audio intermittently, and after some period of time, the audio tends to stop all together. It appears the program is still recognizing different input- i.e. the display will change from dist 4 to nw disp. to dist 3 ems, etc, however there is no audio output. This happens occasionally as soon as 5 minutes after queueing a feed, sometimes not till 20 or 30 minutes later, but happens on various feeds. If I pause the feed, then restart it, it will buffer again and audio is restored. Not a total killer, but a bummer to be sure. I am running version 4.0 on a 3gs with 4.01 OS. Thanks, hope to see a fix soon!
Waiting on an update!

This app has alot of potential, but it has a bug which causes it to crash and is unreliable at best. I was satisfied when I purchased this app about a year ago. My city was not online yet but I was content listening to surrounding areas. Shortly after, I was pleased to find my city on this apps list! After getting use to having my city's scanner radio right on my phone, I was obviously pretty bummed out when it stopped allowing me to listen to it (Waco). There's some major technical issues which need fixed, but I will be keeping the app in the hopes of having Waco online again soon! Unless u live in a major city which is listed on the page, I would hold off on purchasing this app.
Piece of garbage, stopped working

This app used to work decently, it was a little glitchy and crashed sometimes but it usually worked. At that time I would have given it 4 stars. Now it doesn't work at all. Sometimes when you open it, it will play the scanner for about 5 seconds before it goes dead but most of the time it doesn't play anything at all. I wrote the developer and requested that they fix it in my city (Yakima, WA) or that they refund my money. They never responded. Don't download this app because there's a chance it won't work and you'll be SOL on getting your money back. Buy an app with better ratings...there are a lot of good ones out there.
Not as advertised

I specifically bought this because in the write up about the app, Tampa Police Dept was listed as one of the agencies you could receive. Not so.
Great app for hurricane situations

I am listening to NYC Police and FDNY Manhattan. You must have this app in these kinds of situations as it works also with 3G and EDGE.
Brilliant!

Grat app. Must have for emergency situations like this weekend hurricane, as it works with 3G.
