So I recently picked up a Motorola Droid which runs the Android 2.0 OS. I was wondering last night "Does RadioReference have an app for Android?", and literally a moment later I received the RadioReference Email newsletter. The newsletter mentioned mobile apps for listening to the streaming scanners, but Android was absent.
I did a quick check of the Android Marketplace on my Droid, and there was an app called "Police Stream" which mentions having 2,500 live Police radio streams. It works really well, and is nice to have streaming while driving (While also running the Navigation App....which the iPhone can't do).
You can find it on the Android Marketplace on your phone, but you can also see it mentioned on the AndroLib site at PoliceStream v1.2 Application for Android | Communication
It doesn't have all the streams that RR seems to have, so I am not sure if they are using it as their backend.
Playing status (not streaming in the pic)
Sorted by Stream name
Sorted by State
Police Codes Reference (not universal)
Map view of Streaming based upon GPS. Nice if you travel
Anyone know of any other Android Scanning Apps? I'm going to check out the DroidLive player and the web based RadioReference links, but I would like to see a standalone app if possible.
