2/5Needs more content
Good try on watch. Issues: 1. Limited channels and 2. No speaker option. 3. no ability to have channel bamks to scroll across more than one channel

1/5*Beware Last Update 4-Years Ago!
It needs to use the watches built in speaker as I don’t carry or use earbuds. The Nearby list is missing every local police and fire departments that are near me. It needs a standalone search. I also noticed there is a similar app for the iPhone by the same developer. It would be great to search the iPhone app and add and send its favorites instantly to the watch app. The watch should really have access to its own search capabilities and to the full database since it is its own app. Disappointed over no search feature and no use of internal speaker. I hope the $4.99 fee will go to better development of this app. Three years later and still no updates. No search and No internal watch speaker audio. The developer wants payment but doesn’t want to update the app and add the missing features. If an update comes out I’ll change my rating.

1/5Doesn’t play on Watch!
The description of this app should make it clear that it won’t use the speaker on the watch, you have to use Bluetooth and connect to other speakers! What is the point of that?!? I can do that via my iPhone app! Smh I can’t believe I paid five bucks because I was misled.

4/5Dave
This is a really good use for the Apple Watch, very enjoyable. I would give it a five star rating if Apple would allow the use of the built in speaker.
