Police Scanner For My Area Liv

Welcome to Police Scanner For My Area Live Guide.

During the recent George Floyd protests, police scanner app downloads have skyrocketed. If you're hoping to avoid a confrontation with local law enforcement while peacefully protesting or you just want to know what's going on in your area—what's that siren for? Why is there a police helicopter hovering over my neighborhood?—A police scanner app can help out. As an added perk, most of these mobile apps can play fire department and weather radio, too.

These radio-scanning apps save you from buying a pricey hardware scanner: You can simply install an iPhone app or Android app on your smartphone. Both app stores are well stocked with options. Some are free, but there are features in some that make them worth paying for—the last thing you want is a video ad right when you're trying to get crucial info. If you just want to sit at home or in a café and watch police activity, there are several scanner apps available on the app stores for macOS and Windows. You could also simply point your web browser to Broadcastify, which is the feed source for many of these apps.

Police scanner apps simply play for you what departments have made publicly available, so there's usually no legal risks in using them—unless you're committing a crime while doing so, in which case it could add to the offenses you're charged with, depending on the state. In some states it's also illegal to use them while driving, and Indiana has particularly rigid laws on their use.
