V1 Companion Positive Reviews

True companion to the V1This is the best app for the V1G2. It works exactly as intended, though of course nothing is absolutely perfect. SpotLocks takes care of all of the stationary radar and his built-in database of frequencies - most Blind-spot radar you are going to encounter. Customization of the app is enough to make it work for you, without being too much or too complicated to figure out. Once I had all my settings dialed in, I haven't messed with the app. One of the best features, that I am yet to see with another V1 iPhone app, is the dynamic control of the volume. It makes a silent drive when youre encountering stationary K-band and BSM systems, yet still alert quietly when manually. This implementation hands down makes this app better than the rest it for me..GogydmVersion: 3.04.93

Has potential and makes sense.After trying all the other ones available, this is by far the best out there of the very few available at this time. And definitely better than the ever so confusing and over priced V1Driver. This is going in the direction and made the way an app should be made, opposed to fumbling around with it constantly adding pins etc. I would rather use this app here due to the simplicity of it even if not quite perfect yet. Having to constantly add things manually like on other apps of the alike preoccupies your thinking and makes it unsafe to drive at that point. I will stick with this app for now, unless something comes along better. It’s all still very new with Bluetooth enabling GPS options via smart devices, and a big game changer at this point to compete with escorts redline 360c which already has all of this all in one. I do like the fact the app has options opposed to escort models of the alike (being an owner of both devices)does in fact give a lot more control over your detector, but there is still a long way to go before I see one as perfect as I’d like to see it work..Nebul0us9Version: 2.18.10

One last thing and it’s perfect…If it could be used in landscape mode it would be perfect for me... I do use it more than any of the other apps out there. But really want landscape support since my pro max phone gets in the way of other things to see on dash while in portrait orientation. That’s it. Nothing else to dislike it is by far the most quiet v1 ride to work and around town. Great work on last version update. It’s a KA warning system and has since eliminated 99.9 of all other false. bSM and ghost is excellent. And spot locks never let me down. App support site down.. still hoping you are working on landscape option. Thanks!.R6780233565Version: 3.08.8

SuperbThis is overall one of the best apps I have on my phone. It works flawlessly, works as advertised, and makes (IMO) the best radar detector on the market even better. The screens and graphics could use a little cleaning up to make them more legible and less cluttered, and an explanation of some of the symbols that appear on the screen would be ideal, but this is a small price to pay for the functionality offered in this package. Absolutely, totally, and inarguably, worth every penny of the asking price..DVMinMaineVersion: 3.11.1

This app rocks!I finally “upgraded’ to a Gen2 V1. Combining the functionality of this app, especially the GPS Spot Locks, frequency reports, trip summaries, and MANY other cool additions make this a must have for any iOS using Valentine Gen2 user. I had a couple questions that were almost immediately answered by the app team. Most of the time asking questions about an app is a trip to the black hole of never, not so with V1 Companion! I am very happy with this app and the support, thanks Cracked Pixel and team..Nonewhatsoever2Version: 3.05.44

Falling in love with my V1Gen2 all over againThis really quiets your ride. All the reasons why I wanted to get the R8 are now addressed with this app. Overall I think the V1Gen2 is better than anything out there, but its lack of GPS is extremely frustrating. I could write so much more about this app, but this app really is everything the V1Gen2 should be out of the box..TechieBradVersion: 3.10.19

Hallelujah! I was at a loss until this appReally don’t know or care why Valentine 1 doesn’t buy this app and sell it as their own. This app transforms my V1G2 from unusable in city to works really good. Either way, I’m grateful to have controls and love that the app has consistently been updated. Looking forward to the increased functionality and features!.James BentleyVersion: 3.02.53

Great V1 CompanionGreat app. It’s by far the best V1 app I’ve tried. Well worth the price. It’s frequently updated with new and advanced features. This app keeps my V1 pleasantly silent unless an actual threat is near. It’s simple to use and makes my ride so much more peaceful than using my Valentine One without the app..IndignantAtheistVersion: 3.03.25

Has a lot of potentialHave the app and like it but as others have stated the toggles need to move to another page and the main screen enlarged so it uses the entire screen for alerts. Being able to switch to a horizontal view would be great. I’m guessing that a lot of users would appreciate an easier to view alert screen especially us mature users ;).None129Version: 1.09.6

Love it! Just wish I could turn off the “V1Gen2 disconnected” announcementI love that this app enables me to customize nearly all the settings on my V1G2 radar, but it has one major flaw. Though I understand its purpose, I wish it gave the option to turn off the “V1Gen2 connected” or “disconnected” announcements. The app sometimes glitches and will make “disconnected” and “connected” announcements multiple times during a drive, even when the app’s connection to the radar is uninterrupted. Lastly, I hate alerting to the world that I have a radar detector whenever I exit my vehicle. Otherwise, this app is excellent and 5-star!.SoyrekaVersion: 3.05.44

Works to make a quiet rideA really sensitive detector can be so annoying it’s useless. I get very few false hits and yet it warns me when there really is a problem. Not “perfect” but very useful. It’s the best by far and keeps getting better!.Sad you broke itVersion: 3.11.1

Amazing so farDitto to all the other raving reviews, the only thing its missing is its not compatible with apple car play. That would take this app to the next level.Obp59Version: 3.07.9

Great appLooks pretty simple, developer has been upgrading it regularly, I wish the settings toggles would go away and maybe tap or double top bring back them back, that way it would make it look cleaner.SareloxVersion: 1.08.40

Good appI like this app & like my new V1. App works great and connects seamlessly. I’m glad devs devote time & skill to projects like this. If I could change one thing, I’d prefer a different skin or theme. I don’t really care for the font that’s used..FrambachVersion: 2.19.95

Getting startedJust purchased last night and so far so good, the looks could be cleaned up a bit, looks a tad cartoonish. The settings buttons are also a little hard to see at the bottom of the screen . Will try it out for awhile and see how it goes..V 1 reviewVersion: 3.04.93

CarPlay?This is an excellent sidekick to the v1, but I am longing for CarPlay compatibility. By the way, thank you to the developer(s) for putting so many useful features in this app!.BSzen27Version: 3.07.9

Excellent AppIgnore my other review with the exception that the developer put the instructions on how to change the voicing. Excellent support, well worth the purchase..ScottieRottenVersion: 3.0.26

V1 companionExcellent App, Thank you developer, Makes using the V1 gen 2 a breeze and adds so Much extra functionality to the V1.Redjacket3Version: 3.11.1

Great companion appThis app is awesome, really makes life better. The spot lock is great and I love that I get the notifications that I want to see. Keep it up!.Watermelonz are yummyVersion: 3.01.41

Awesome app! One wish-list item.Love this app! Would it be possible in a future release to include a database for red light/speed cameras? Thanks!.Slack-AxeVersion: 3.06.30

V1G2Initial impression - I like it a lot and look forward to the tweaks and improvements.LennonsbugVersion: 1.03.11

Just got it yesterdayNice looking interface. Works great with the V1G2. It keeps connecting and disconnecting from the bluetooth. Is this the app’s fault or a Valentine problem?.Glen_PetersonVersion: 2.11.2

Nice AppWorks nice! My hope is that it will eventually include crowd sourced alerts, speed cameras, and aircraft..OktguiVersion: 3.11.1

Good app with some small failingsMostly this is a good iOS app for the v1Gen2. Biggest failings are 1. voice announcements are inaudible at highest volume settings. I can only hear voice announcements if the car is stopped. 2. If I can hear the voice announcements, the spoken frequency has significant figures out to 3 decimal places with no easy way to change. Ie. 34.700 hz instead of a simpler 34.7 hz Both these issues are so annoying I choose a competitive app instead most days..Ryanbauman1Version: 3.05.44

V1 Companion Negative Reviews

UI DisasterI reeeally want to like this app, but the user interface is a poorly designed visual disaster, lacking any basic organization, information hierarchy, and professional design. The developer has clearly forgotten that you will be DRIVING when using this app. Instead, it seems like the intent is to impress us with how many alert and pieces of information can be thrown on the screen all at once, sometimes using plain English sentences, with bright contrasting colors. The initial splash screen – using what looks like comic sans – is your first clue that this will not be a good user experience. You’re then BOMBARDED by an unavoidable, overwhelming and infuriating wave of prompts that you CAN NOT STOP. Once you finally get past that, you’re presenting with a poorly designed UI/UX that any first year design student could dramatically improve in five minutes of casual work while drinking a cup of coffee. This app’s functionality might be amazing, but its UI and UX are just too sophomoric to even try. What a shame..MschultzVersion: 3.08.8

Won’t fitWon’t fit on my screen. I cannot access controls or menu options. I was excited by Vortex Radar about this app but now I’m disappointed..Funk owner 189Version: 1.09.6

No Landscape Mode, worthlessNo landscape mode available.Someon166t5yVersion: 3.08.8

Won’t connectI have one of the latest V1 Gen 1 detectors, along with the Bluetooth dongle that works for both Android and IOS, but this app fails to connect..OnePostalVersion: 1.09.6
