## Description

The Frederick Scanner Pro is a live audio stream of Frederick, Maryland Police, Fire, Rescue, and Highway communications. Just start the app, press the play button and you're tapped into the Frederick scene. Choose "Fire Feed" and you'll hear only Fire, Rescue, EMS communications. Choose the "Airport Feed" to listen in on the local FDK Airport communications. All the other Fire/Police feed apps use services like Broadcastify and are delayed 1-2 minutes but the FredScanner Pro audio is delayed by on a few seconds!

The Pro version includes:
- CarPlay enabled

- Vastly improved audio
- No audio delay
- FredScanner Latest Incidents
- Live traffic reports
- Various Frederick County Webcam shots
- Live MDSHA Traffic Cams

## Review summary

Users praise FredScanner Pro for its low price and useful real-time features (traffic cams, incidents, 10-code list) and note improvements in updates. However, stability issues dominate negatives: black screens, startup crashes, and audio problems on some devices. The traffic cam module can crash the app, and ad handling is mixed—removal appreciated by some, persistent ads reported by others. Overall, it’s valuable for emergency responders and enthusiasts when stable, but reliability and ad behavior are ongoing concerns.

### Pros

- Low price and strong value for the features offered.
- Real-time safety features like live traffic cams, incident tracking, and a 10-code list.
- Recent updates improved the interface and audio clarity and added incident text updates.
- Helpful for volunteers and community members who need timely dispatch information.

### Cons

- Frequent black screen or startup crashes after updates.
- Audio issues on some devices (no audio or distorted sound) post-update.
- Traffic cam feature can crash or destabilize the app.
- Ads can be intrusive or persist after payment, diminishing the experience.
