Escort Live Radar App Reviews

Needs update

Not optimized for 6 Plus resolution and frequently needs to be restarted. Why are there only two Location Services options, "Never" and "Always", if its going to crash in the background. There needs to be a "While using app" option.

What a waste

If you cant update your app to use screen resolutions from the past few years, you shouldnt be charging to use this app as a service. I refuse to grant my gps location "always" just to pay you for a severely underdeveloped service. If your developer is telling you this isnt a big deal -it is. Youre charging $650 for a radar detector that makes a big deal out of being "connected". You might want to make it look like the app isnt from before 2012.

Kills Battery

Useful features but an energy hog. Frequent connectivity issues.

Add navigation

I love this whole concept but nav needs to be added to the app as well. Im new to the escort radar detector I bought it for a big trip I will leave another review after the trip.

Countless saves

Takes a few months to train a new detector and block business security systems. I have been using for years since first developed and with several detectors in three vehicles. I love this system because it works and Escort needs to keep it reactive not just defensive! I drive in illegal states that have draconian laws against free speech and this is the best defense period!!!

Bad App

This could have been a good app. To damned worried about trying to get rich. Need to perfect the app so its a good app worth the money and then we wont mind paying for the app.

Do not use or buy detector

This programming mess is not worth the $50 a year subscription. They do not update the application when there is a major update to Apple iPhone iOS. Must constantly log in manually even though you check the box that says keep me logged in. Do yourself a favor and do not use this application or theyre overpriced radar detectors

IPhone 7 plus screen resolution

I dont get get. IPhone 6 plus has been out for over a year now and the iPhone 7 plus just came out. Why hasnt this app got support for the screen resolution yet? Im seriously about to cancel my subscription because of this if theres no update for this at all.

Long time escort radar user new app user

App is glitchy, should be able to have more options for over speed like be able to have it for one speed you can set (can do this without live connected) also more options for speed over speed limit. It would be nice to be able to update the radar using the app and Bluetooth from phone. Better integration with other apps like maps or waze would be great

Great App

Great app but i would really enjoy a skip button during the intro that shows every time i open the app

Great System but Buggy App

The system is great though it needs more users or integration with Waze. But the app has too many bugs. About once a day it fails to login correctly and forgets all of my settings. Ive tried reinstalling and other tricks but no luck. Closing it and restarting doesnt help either.

Beltronics/Escort Listen up

Read your reviews. Negotiate utilizing waze. That app is far more useful, being a walled garden only works for apple, and thats not entirely true any longer... Find a company thats been doing what your trying to do, and does it better, and purchase their tech, or subscribe and pass to cost to your users. Dont re invent the wheel, makes your software look amateur.

Doesnt show speed limit on radar

Even though phone is Bluetooth connected to the Max 360 automatically, the current speed limit is not shown on the Max 360 unless the phone was unlocked and used in the car. I usually leave the phone in my jacket or pants. I dont want to take it out every time to use this feature. The radar shows that Bluetooth is connected so make the app work in background and send speed limit to the radar.

Expected status code in (200-299), got 503

Anybody else getting this code? Just purchased the max 360 and the app is absolutely pathetic… Thank God I didnt choose to pay 50 bucks a year yet for the Escort Live. Currently on the free subscription for the first year and cannot even get into the app after the third day.

Escort live never really works right

The long-standing complaint that the map in escort live just orients itself randomly so you never know which way the radar threat is from your location on the map should be corrected, escort obviously doesnt care about the customer complaints on this problem. About half the time the radar detector wont connect to the iPhone via Bluetooth. Very unreliable software. Too bad escort cant get this right, but I guess theyre suckering a lot of people into buying the stuff anyway.

Needs complete overhaul

Constant connection issues between the app and the detector. Keep getting error codes in the app. Outdated look, limited features. If anyone at Escort is reading this, SPEND THE TIME AND MONEY to make a good app. It is half of the experience that you have left behind.

Cant log in

After just one day I cant log in anymore. The screen is showing me "Expected status code in (200-299), got 503" what does that even mean?!?!?

App doesnt work well..

So the app keep crashing at startup, i have to restart the app every time i get in my car or it wont connect with my Beltronic STI, now it wont show speed cams anymore and there is no update yet... this app need alot of work still...

Bad Joke

Downloaded & proceeded to drive past 3 cop cars. Saw the officer holding the radar gun but the app failed to react. Same thing for known speed traps, cameras etc. What a disappointment.

Continue to have Bluetooth Issues

Dec 13 and have to continue to uninstall/reinstall app to get Bluetooth to work or hope that if I shutdown app before leaving car all will be well. Not good and very frustrating. Issue with Escort app and server such that Escort 360 Bluetooth does not pair and displays 70 OSP in the Bluetooth area (70 mph overspeed which I set in settings which should go away when Bluetooth is paired to app). The fix is to uninstall and reinstall the app. This is my 3rd time in a month and this is not acceptable. Since this is one of the main features of this app I have no choice but to give it 1 star. Escort needs to fix problem. My precious 4 star review now down to 2. Kudos to Escort for allowing continued Bluetooth connection while in background of iOS5 as well as radar/laser reporting. Now to allow the map to go into night mode on the next update would be great; windshield glare is a safety issue. Keep up the good work and providing such a good companion product to the radar unit itself.
