So I upgraded to a paid subscription and now I’m wondering how I can access the feeds in my area? I know how to get the free ones but I am looking for the others you were referring too?

Thank you buddy so much

Check which ones you want list to. Then click add to playlist. You can add 30 per playlist. But you can make as many playlists as you want

What if each just starts playing and then immediately stops? You can start it again and it just replays the quick tidbit and stops again?

Thank you

On your IPad. Go to settings, Display and Brightness and set the auto-lock to never. This will not run in the background. So if the screen turns off so will the playlist

Does it make a difference if I’m just using it on my iPhone but it’s the only thing running and never goes to sleep mode?

Thanks

As long as the screen stays lit it should keep playing
It doesn’t though. It just plays a quick sound bite and then goes quiet and if you push stop ad start again it just replays what you just listened to and goes silent. You can do that over and over and it doesn’t change . It does that on every channel. Thank you for all your help

I’ve never had that issue. Try creating a new playlist.Put in 10440,10448,and 50000. Those are Toledo PD and Fire Dispatcher. And send me 3-4 of the TGs that you are trying to listen to.

It just says

Live - Waiting for call . . .​


After it plays the quick blurb . You can refresh and play again and it does the same thing over and over

Ok that makes sense. Now you can create some busier playlists. Once you play around with it you’ll find that you can listen to all kinds of things . You can even play back prior transmissions. I’m glad you got it working. Happy scanning
