Police Scanner - Live Radio

What the app does

Police Scanner - Live Radio plays live public-safety audio feeds through an Android app. It is aimed at listeners who want to follow police, fire, emergency, weather, or air-traffic broadcasts rather than wait for a report in a conventional news app. Feeds can be explored by location, including areas outside the listener’s home region.

Useful listening tools

The app combines a live audio directory with a map for finding feeds by place. It also includes breaking-news and severe-weather notifications, a reference for common police and emergency codes, and options to save feeds for quicker access. A sleep timer is available for listeners who do not want playback to continue indefinitely.

• Browse live scanner feeds from multiple regions.
• Use location-based discovery and an interactive map.
• Keep preferred channels in a favorites list.
• Check emergency-code meanings while listening.
• Set a timer for background or late-night playback.

Who it suits

This is a practical fit for people following local incidents, severe weather, public-safety activity, or transportation radio. It may also suit journalists, researchers, and scanner hobbyists who need several kinds of live audio in one place. The volume and variety of feeds can be useful, but listeners should expect broadcasts to differ in coverage, clarity, and local availability.

Listing record

The app is published by Police Scanner, Scanner Live Radio App in News & Magazines. It holds a 4.77 rating from 131,203 reviews and lists 10,000,000+ installs. Those figures show broad adoption, while the app’s main value remains direct access to live scanner audio rather than edited news coverage.
