Police Radio app - Dispatcher Alerts Cop that I'm listening

Ugh, is this app legal? I was listening to a police radio channel somewhere in California and I heard the cop say 10-6, and I scrolled up to see what it meant. It said Busy/Change channel. Then I heard the dispatcher go 10-30, so I scrolled down to only see "Unauthorized use of radio" next to 10-30.
My eyes grew x2 as big. I deleted that app so **** fast. I'm nervous as **** lol.
I'm thinking to myself, would Apple approve an app that can perform illegal things such as this?
And yes, of course, before you intelligent nerds start yelling at me, I'm not familiar with the laws and all that other stuff when it comes to radios. So if you can, in a nice way, explain to me if this app is illegal or not? Thanks.

Put the app back on your iPhone and listen all you want. They were referring to someone using the radio in a police car and that was unauthorized use.
They could have also been afraid that the channel privacy had been compromised by someone listening (not you) that could have damaged their investigation. I hear this all the time on my police scanner or iPhone police scanner apps.
They don't care that you are listening on an iPhone and that is not illegal use. Got it now?

    I recently updated my iphone 4 with the 6.1 update. Ever since then my iheart radio app has been acting up. While listening words are getting cut off as well the stations just cut off playing. I have tried shutting my phone down and turning it back on but it doesn.t seem to help.

    i have same problem in UK - my phone no longer works with my car cable - it will charge the phone, my ipad works fine, as does my old itouch so I know that the cable is ok.  It comes up with no connection even though it is charging it. It used to be fine I dont understand why this would happen?

  • Radio App, capable of listening to hallamfm

    Does anyone know of a free or considerately low priced radio app for the iPod/iPad capable of listening to a station called HallamFM? Thankyou

    You can try ooTunes Radio:
    http://ootunes.com/app/
    Their site claims they can play HallAMFM:
    http://demo.ootunes.com/radiostreams_that_work_oniphone/www.hallamfm.co.uk
    HallAMFM cannot be played in Safari on the iPad because the page does indeed use Flash.

  • My iPad keeps reinstalling Apps on subsequent syncs that were originally successfully deleted by unchecking the App box in iTunes

    I'm having problems with iTunes reinstalling Apps that I want on my iPhone, but not my iPad. Furthermore, my household uses home sharing and if an App is on one iPad, iTunes puts it on all the devices. I found that if if I'm in iTunes with the iPad connected, I can delete Apps by unselecting the box for the App and then syncing it. All unselected Apps will be deleted this way, but that's where my problem starts. With the very next sync, all of the previously deleted Apps are then reinstalled. It seems that as long as the App is in my library, iTunes will reinstall it. I tried deleting the Apps directly from the device, and they're still reinstalled. The only way I can delete the Apps successfully is by deleting the App by unchecking the box and then syncing. Then I must delete the App from all devices in my home sharing network as well as my library. Here is where it really gets frustrating. If I want the App back on my iPhone by reinstalling it directly to the iPhone, iTunes will add it back  it to my iPad with the next sync.  My only option so far seems to be  to keep the Apps on all my devices, or none of my devices. To make matters worse, I have many of my daughter's Apps on my iPad and she has many of mine on her Mini-iPad (because of  home sharing). Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    I've been having the same problem with my iPad most recently, and I think I may have an answer.  I have a lot of apps installed and more that are not installed. I sync with iTunes once every few months; however, I regularly update my apps directly on the iPad.  Whenever I sync with my computer, iTunes will copy the latest purchases from my iPad (including the latest updates) to the computer.
    What I've noticed is that iTunes only copies a few apps at a time.  I'm guessing this is to speed up the syncing process.  Every time I press Sync, even just having completed a sync, iTunes finds some more apps to copy over from the iPad.  Imagine with 50 apps updated on the iPad since the last install, even if iTunes copies 10 apps per sync, it still takes 5 syncs to copy over all of the apps.  I've also noticed that every time I try to remove an app when iTunes is going through these rounds of copying from the iPad, my removed apps get reinstalled.
    The solution: sync iTunes repeatedly until it has copied all apps from the iPad to the computer. Only once that has been completed should you try to remove the apps you no longer want on your iPad.
    Hopefully this will all be taken care of with iOS 5 and the wireless syncing!

  • I have apps on my iPhone that I want to delete but do not want them deleted from my iPad.  How do I know which ones are iPhone specific?

    In order to save using data when traveling I want to delete apps from my iPhone that I don't need.  However I do want these apps on my iPad and with the new IOS8.0.2 and Yosemite I think they are all now integrated so that if I delete from one device it is deleted from all and if I add to one device it is added to all.  Is this correct?
    1.  How can I tell which apps are specific to iPhone and which are specific to iPad?
    2.  How can I tell how much data is being used per app?
    3.  How can I tell if an app is running in the background?
    4.  When I turn off cellular data does that limit the app from functioning always or just restrict it to wi-fi?
    5.  Do I benefit from having Bluetooth on if I don't use a head phone or other device?
    6.  Is a Personal Hotspot more secure than using paid hotel wi-fi?

    Deleting on one device does not affect another device.
    You can delete the App's on the iPhone and nothing will happen to the ones on the iPad.
    1.  You don't need to.
    2.  Settings->Cellular->"Use Cellular Data For" will show the data usage for each App since the last statistics reset
    3.  Settings->General->Background App Refresh Will show which Apps are allowed to get data in the background
    4.  It restricts it to Wifi.  If the App requires internet access and Data is turned off, it will have to wait until the device is connected to a wifi network.
    5.  Nope, You just use up battery since the BT radio will continuously look for nearby BT devices.
    6.  The Personal Hotspot uses your cellular internet connection from your phone or other cellular device; whether you consider that secure or not I cannot say.  It also depends on what you are doing while connected to the Hotel's wifi. I would not do online banking while on vacation though.

  • Removing IOS 5 and reverting to ios 4 (iphone 4) - as it will not allow me to download apps or stream music on radio apps.

    HI
    i updated to ios 5 today on my iphone 4 much to my dismay it cant stream radio apps i paid for anymore because it somehow HOGS the internet, but yet when i tried to play one of the multiplayer adventure games it is fine.  i dont know if its an INDIVIDUAL app issue whereby i have to enable or disable something or something within the settings to do with the itnernet i need to change?
    i cant even download apps on my iphone either it gives an error reading something along the lines of my internet; i connect at home with wifi and successfully stream music radio apps through my home speaker system; or i did do so before updating to this TRASH!. so i'm sure you can understand why i now ask to remove ios5 otherwise there is no point in me keeping the iphone, i have one year left on my mobile contract with orange to pay for.
    i need to perform a downgrade, i have ONE back up from july which would be the ios4 version if i restore it using this back up file in itunes, would it definately remove the ios 5 and put the ios4 backon my iphone ?
    Lorrie

    You can NOT downgrade iOS.
    That said, millions people have updated to iOS 5 without experiencing the problems you report. Why don't you try some basic troubleshooting before you resort to drastic measures.
    Restoring from your backup will NOT revert the phone to iOS 4.
    First, try to reset all settings. This will re-set the network settings and clear any personalization (wallpaper, custom assigned ringtones, etc.) but you will not lose any data.
    Then, try a simple re-set. If that doesn't work, try restoring from your last backup. If that doesn't work, Erase all content and settings and set it up as a new device.  It's possible one or more of the apps you are trying to use

  • ANY radio app for 1st gen iPod touch?? Even with Wifi!?

    Firstly, I know the 1st gen ipod touch does not have a radio receiver..this is not my problem.
    I've been looking for an app that I can listen to the radio on..even through wifi...but am not finding any that will work with the 1st gen. For example, I download TuneIn radio which I have on my itunes, blackberry, and tablet...but it is only compatible with newer generations of the ipod touch. I am on version 3.1.3 which I believe is the most up-to-date.
    In short, I'm absolutely fine to use wifi to listen to the radio, but simply can't find an app (ideally a free one) that will even let me sync the app from my itunes to the ipod.
    Suggestions would be very welcome!

    Try my web app. I have over 100 stations of all genres. Just enter the following URL in Safari and tap on the orange music icon on top right. Also, you can add a Home screen app icon for easy future access.

  • I use to stream music from my iphone to my airport express via my stereo, it no longer is an option on the radio app. what has happened?

    Not sure what has happened to my airport expres but I can no longer stream music to my stereo via the TuneIn Radio app or using my macbook pro, need help in fixing this problem.

    UPDATE:
    I have been stress testing StreamToMe in the house and  "out in the wild" and it is working very well.  There are one or two clunky steps in order to switch from the in-my-house wifi to the cellular network but it's just better (to me) than uploading about 750 GB of music that is restricted by iTunes rules and limitations to "the cloud".   The major advantage is that this solution plays more file formats than iTunes will.  In addition, I can access music files anywhere on my mac - even if they are not in my iTunes library. Playlists from iTunes are available, too.
    I am not associated with this company in any way.  I am astounded that there are not more solutions available and that there are not more people discussing this issue.  Subscription models like Spotify are great and the cloud is fine for those that don't have large libraries  But when I have a humongous library and I don't want to move it around up and down to someone else's server or pay to access it after I have already paid for it I find the lack of ease of doing this baffling.
    I hope that this info can help someone looking for information relating to this type of solution...

  • Using a radio app to Airplay music through my Apple TV. Works, but after some minutes, the Airplay audio output setting switches back to iPad. Why? Solution?

    I want to use a FM radio app to Airplay music through my Apple TV (by using the synchronizing function). Works, but after some minutes, the Airplay audio output setting switches back to iPad. Why? Solution?
    Why don't use iTunes? Because this just needs to many handling in order to get it where i want it (in general, this whole idea of doing everything online just works likes... ). An app is easier (that's why it is invented).

    Hey AKfishgirl,
    Thanks for the question. The common variable here is your Wi-Fi router. Let’s check to see if the commonly used ports are being blocked by a firewall on your router:

  • Audio to my Digital TV (Pandora Radio App)

    I plug my iPhone into my digital TV to watch movies and hear music that I have stored under the "iPod" app. [on my iPhone]. I can see and hear the movies (etc.), and everything is fine with the iPod app. BUT, when I try to listen to the "Pandora Radio" app. from my iPhone -- through my TV -- IT DOES NOT WORK. The TV shows a blank screen, and the TV says that it can not find a signal...
    WHY??? Can anyone help me? Thank you very much.

    I am just a user like you. I don't have any inside information on whether Apple will allow internet applications to ever display through an external monitor.

  • FM radio app won't launch

    My FM radio app just suddenly refused to launch: with the earphones plugged in. 
    It just keeps "...launching; please wait" but it never launches.
    I haven't a clue how to correct the problem )-:

    I installed a keyboard and had to use the "Unknown sources" ..."Allow installations of non-Market Applications".  I uninstalled the keyboard then turned my Droid off and back on.  The FM radio launched when I was finished.
    I should have turned the Droid off and on first, so I can't be sure it was the keyboard.  Turning it off may have been all I had to do.  I will have to re-install the keyboard to see if it was the keyboard that caused the problem.

  • Radio App in Mac OS?

    Why is there no built-in radio apps that comes with Mac OS software?

    You mean like iTunes????
    If you don't have an Internet Radio tab, open iTunes Preferences, General tab, and select Internet Radio. Then, in the Music section, there will be an Internet tab where you can choose a station.
    If your station isn't listed, you can add it with the Open Stream… command in the File menu.
