  • Speed limit not updating

    It seems like the speed limit for the area I am driving in doesn’t update well with Drive Smarter or at all, but it works fine if I use the older Escort app. This seems to be the case whether using with my Redline or my Max II. Both have the latest firmware. Any app setting I am missing?
  • Great Potential, but big problems

    App has improved greatly, but isn’t quite ready to take over navigation in Car Play. For one, it crashes often, and on just the app but causes CarPlay to close in my vehicle.
  • A waste of money

    I don’t know what the problem is but it constantly disconnects from the phone app. It doesn’t matter whether it’s Android or iPhone, sometimes the past drives save. It’s has just been a frustrating experience.
  • Another failed update

    Bug fix that still doesn’t correct issue with app detecting device. What a piece of junk software. Can’t even adjust detector settings because the app can’t find it. Still using escort live for that. Device still doesn’t display speed reliably when connected to WiFi. Not sure where they get their beta testers from cause they either don’t have any or they are no good. Perhaps Escort just doesn’t listen?
  • Wrong actual speed limit

    It says the speed limit on the road I'm on no matter the actual speed limit is that its twenty five miles an hour.

    This app will not connect to Max 360C. Iphone16 running the latest update, reset the device and still the red banner ERROR, something went wrong. Escort Live works great. Seriously considering going to another brand where the apps work

  • Worse than the old app

    This newer app no longer has a dashboard option with settings. The few settings it does have such as over speed alert does not update the detector. I expected much more at this price point. I expected the new app to be better than the old one. Disappointing
  • Terrific update and firmware, made it worst

    The new firmware has made my RL360c basically useless, BT connect issues, service issues and app is still bad. Why do they hate us, I regret buying this and should’ve kept to Uniden.
