Police Scanner 2

Police Scanner 2 is the first interactive police scanner for the iPhone and iPod Touch. The app allows users to alert others about emergency broadcast streams as they happen using text messages. The text messages appear on a small ticker in the app, allowing users to tune in to the stream being discussed.

In addition to allowing users to share information, Police Scanner 2 allows users to record snippets of a stream and replay it later. The length of snippets recorded is limited only by the memory of the iPhone or other device.

Police Scanner allows anyone with an iPhone or iPod touch to listen to all streams hosted on RadioReference.com.

Police Scanner's adaptive technology allows updates to data streams to post "live" within a few hours of changes made. Because emergency data streams can change so quickly, Police Scanner is able to provide the updated information to its customers.

Other features include the ability to save favorite streams, to locate streams with a map, and to answer calls and email while a stream is running.

With over 2300 national and international EMS streams, Police Scanner offers the largest selection of police, fire, and emergency services streams available for the iPhone in one application. Users can locate and listen to police dispatch frequencies worldwide. Police Scanner is the only iPhone emergency scanner application to provide streams from nine countries. New streams are added daily.

The previous version of Police Scanner, the first police scanner available for the iPhone and iTouch, is currently being sold in the iTunes store under Police Scanner Lite

Police Scanner 2 runs on wireless LANs, the 3G network, or on the Edge network, and is compatible both 2.x and 3.0 devices.
