Description

NOTE: R4 Companion™ requires a Uniden R4 or R4w radar detector with US Version 137 (R4) or 115 (R4w) firmware to function correctly. R4 Companion will NOT function correctly without this firmware.

R4 Companion™ is a feature rich app, designed to give you the most out of your R4, while enhancing your driving experience along the way. Featuring intelligent alerts and advanced muting! R4 Companion™ is the COMPLETE solution to enjoying your R4.

The R4 Companion™ app leverages years of optimizations and features from the Radar Companion™ series of apps. (Available separately for owners of the V1, R8, R9, & DS1 radar detectors).

Enhanced GPS location based 'false muting' via SpotLocks™ - All future updates to this app are free to purchasers of R4 Companion™

R4 Companion™'s alerting and muting systems are fully optimized for the R4 platform. Intelligent voice announcements and on-screen visuals will always keep you informed and aware of the situation around you.

R4 Companion™ full feature list:

• SpotLocks™ - Location based false silencing has never been this good or easy. Turn on the intelligent location-based learning and let R4 Companion™ do the rest. Or you can manually 'lock' or 'unlock' locations with ease from the main alert screen.

• Works seamlessly with the R4's auto mute memory, manual mute memory, k-block, and quiet-ride built in muting.

• Option to play detector tones in app.

• Ability to set R4’s internal detector settings (30+) from the app (See below list, more settings coming in free future upgrades). *Requires US Version 136 (R4) 114 (R4w) firmware:
