About HighwayRadar

HighwayRadar alerts you to known and potential speed traps and enforcement to help you drive with confidence!

  • Crowd sourced police alerts that can show you the speed limit at the alert location
  • Alerts on a worldwide database of speed and redlight cameras and US database of Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) cameras, updated regularly.
  • Aircraft speed enforcement alerts, sourced from multiple databases using smart logic to identify aircraft attempting to hide from public view.
  • Heat maps based on historical crowd sourced police reports let you know where the speed traps are even if there are no current reports in the area.
  • Risk Score calculated from historical reports in your current location, time, and day help you gauge the likelihood of speed traps even if there are none currently reported.

HighwayRadar also intelligently controls your radar detector to serve as your all-in-one driving alert hub!

  • Supports Uniden R8/R8w/R4/R4w, Valentine V1 Gen2, and Radenso DS1.
  • Mute weak signals, when driving below a specified speed, above the speed limit, a certain amount above the speed limit, or even after a specified delay.
  • Audio readouts tell you the detected band and direction. As requested by motorcycle riders!
  • Alert center shows you the frequency, band, direction, and signal strength for ALL current detected radar alerts.
  • Manually mute and unmute from the alert banner.
  • Flash the phone screen to grab your attention on alert.

Custom controls allow you to fine-tune the way that you receive crowd sourced alerts:

  • Alert modes let you control what alerts you are notified of:
  • Current Street: Triggers warnings for police and camera alerts that are ahead (based on direction of travel) on the current street within the alert radius.
  • In Front: Triggers warnings for police alerts that are ahead (based on direction of travel) on any street within the alert radius.
  • Within Radius: Triggers warnings for ALL police alerts that are within the alert radius.
  • Use smart speed-sensitive alert distance or custom radius/distance for alerting
  • Audio alerts can play over bluetooth/CarPlay or from your phone
  • Filter alerts based on a specified age (time since last report)
  • Flash the phone screen when a new alert comes in
  • Set alert distance for cameras, and enable alerts for each type separately
  • Police reports are automatically suggested on high-strength radar hits

Aircraft alerting can be customized to:

  • Only alert on known/suspected threats or alert on all threads AND unknown aircraft
  • Play audio alerts, show alert banners, or both
  • Alert within a specified radius separate from police and camera alerts

Other Features:

  • Range rings help you quickly determine how close you are to a given alert
  • Set your favorite heat map theme, with customizable weight and transparency
  • Speed graph shows current speed and personal speed limit meter alongside current speed limit
  • Risk Score has two scoring model options: 10-score is easier to interpret while 25-score offers more granularity
  • Set a preferred map zoom level and angle
  • Zoom in when approaching police or camera alerts
  • Speed-sensitive zoom ensures the right level of visibility and detail
  • Power Save mode automatically shuts down the app when you're not using it
  • Customizable user location icon (with more to come!)
  • Light/dark mode (with soft black and pitch black themes) can follow system settings
  • Supports miles or KM
  • Set alert volume separate from
  • Traffic map overlay

Subscription required.

  • Audio readouts are English-only for now. Additional languages planned soon. Only R8/w and V1 Gen2 support signal direction recognition.
