Android radar detector in the works.

There's good reason for the old saying "Jack of all trades, master of none".

On top of that, there's no way any Cobra would be master of all radar detectors. I'll leave the why to the reader to determine. There's plenty of reference material out there for those who care to dig deeper.

Sure, but to find it, they'd have to search your phone, which in most cases is a tiny bit illegal.

Incorrect. You might want to Google radar detector detectors. They don't have to search your phone. They don't even have to search your car. Besides, cops will find "probable cause" if they want to.

I wish I could get a jamming system that was on the bombers I use to crew.

I wouldn't recommend messing with the feds. Radar falls under FCC jurisdiction.

I love this concept, but it would be great if Valentine was the one pushing it forward. What would be really solid is if the signal would them show you where the radar signal was originating from in Google Maps.

I can't see VR pushing this given their history. They're not a whistles and bells company. Pure performance is their main concern. I could see Escort pushing this.

How would the location be determined with any accuracy? The V1 can only tell you front/side/rear for example. Plotting that on Google Maps would be fairly useless or not much more benefit than the existing arrows.

V1 is a very nice RD. I can't wait to see what new stuff V1 has coming soon!

Aren't radar detectors illegal in your country, Kreeker?

if only radaractive would come to android! Thats the only thing about ios that I wish I had on android. Been using a V1 for almost 10 years, and would love the ability to use my phone as my display!

boo cobra!
