BBScanner allows you to listen to over 2,900 police and fire scanners, railroad communications, and weather radio broadcasts from around the world using your BlackBerry (with more being added daily).
Features:
- Add scanners you listen to the most to your Favorites list for quick access.
- View scanners that are located nearest you, sorted by distance.
- View the top 50 scanners that have the most listeners (updated every 5 minutes).
- View list of scanners added most recently (new additions are being added all the time).
- Browse the directory of scanner feeds by location or by genre (public safety, weather, railroad, etc).
- Configure alerts to have the app notify you when lots of people are listening to a scanner (indicating that something big may be happening).
Some of the more popular scanners people listen to are:
- Chicago Police
- Los Angeles Police
- Dallas Police and Fire
- Denver Police and Fire
- Philadelphia Police
You'll have unlimited access to all of the scanners and weather radio stations for 7 days during the trial period. After the trial period has ended you'll continue to have unlimited access to the weather radio stations but access to the police and fire scanners will be restricted (listening time will be limited to 5-15 minutes per BBScanner session).
With your one-time $2.99 purchase you get free upgrades forever and you can transfer your registration to newer BlackBerry's as many times as you need to. There is no subscription or monthly fee.
At this time you must be using OS version 4.2.1 or later to use BBScanner.
