"Feels like a new detector!", -e This is what people are saying after using the Radar Companion™ apps - See what all the fuss is about, try it for yourself!
If you liked R8 Companion before this release, you are going to LOVE it after! Modify the most popular settings on your R8 radar detector right from the app! See the list below for a complete list of the settings you can modify (more settings coming in future updates). Spread the word, it is only going to get better. If you have an idea / suggestion you would like included in a future update, please visit https://crackedpixel.com/contact-us to let us know. Thanks!
Version 1.14 Update:
• Fixed "detector tones through app' to mute to zero to match what the detector audio does.
• Misc. bug fixes and optimizations.
Recent Updates:
• First major update to "SpotLocks" system (location based lockouts) since its release.
• New and improved SpotLock 2.0 and Advanced False Assist 3.0. Both data driven systems have been updated using 4 years of historical data. This takes your detector to a whole new level of quietness and safety against real threats.
• Enhancements to "Reduce your speed" alert functionality.
• 4 new mute types added to alert history log:
"User R8" for when the user presses the physical mute button.
"R8 Latch" for to support Uniden's latch mute for when the detector is muted and the signal goes away and then re-occurs within a short period.
"User app" for when a user mutes the detector by taping on the phone screen during an active alert.
"Ka, K, X Timer" for when the detector is muted after the user's set amount of time.
• Compiled with latest Xcode 15.4 SDK.
• Improved GPS Cooldown/Warmup functionality.
• Fix for when. "BT Scanning" is set to OFF, but random connections still happen.
Previous Updates:
• Added ability to erase POI, Ka & Laser Alerts from the map via the format button.
• Added ability to backup/restore all, or just backup SpotLocks, POI, and Ka and Laser Alerts individually.
• New Alert log event, "Urgent" based on your urgency alert settings.
• Added the option to have the radar detector's alert tones play through the app. The new setting is found in the 'Audio Settings' of R8 Companion.
• The app will read your detector's settings for each signal type's alert tone (1-12) and use the associated alert tone within the app for alerts.
***TIP: Setting the main volume for the detector to 0 on the main alert screen and enabling the detector alert tones, will eliminate the brief audio "blips" you would normally hear when a mute command is first sent to the detector. Only potential threats will then trigger audio through your speaker or audio system providing an extremely quiet ride.
• Improved Bluetooth connection speed (now up to 60% faster) and re-connection reliability.
• New ability to unlock a Ka 'mute mem' or 'auto mem' from within the app.
• Tuned existing K-Notch for Acuras/Hondas based on historical data.
• Added ability to tun ON/OFF the function of SpotLocks automatically writing the location to your detector's "manual mute" memory when a locked SpotLock is created (This setting is found on the map screen).
• Added a new R8 settings screen to modify some of the more popular R8 settings (more to come in future updates). The list of settings that can be modified are as follows:
• Laser ON/OFF
• X Band ON/OFF
• K Band ON/OFF
• K Pop ON/OFF
• K Filter ON/OFF
• K Scans (Narrow, Wide, Extended)
• TSF ON/OFF
• Ka Band ON/OFF

R8 Companion
更新日志
"Feels like a new detector!", -e This is what people are saying after using R8 Companion™ - See what all the fuss is about, try it for yourself!
If you liked R8 Companion before this release, you are going to LOVE it after! This update features the ability to modify the most popular settings on your R8 radar detector right from the app! See the list below for a complete list of the settings you can modify (more settings coming in future updates). Spread the word, it is only going to get better. If you have an idea / suggestion you would like included in a future update, please visit https://crackedpixel.com/contact-us to let us know. Thanks!
Version 1.10 Updates:
• Added new relevant code/optimizations from R9 development.
• 'GPS Cooldown' added to 'GPS Warmup' feature.
• Enlarged High Resolution Alert Meter and Noise Meter for easier reading.
• Groundwork architecture completed for future feature(s).
• Added ability to erase POI, Ka & Laser Alerts from the map via the format button.
• New robust iCloud map data backup functionality:
• Added ability to backup/restore all, or just backup SpotLocks, POI, and Ka and Laser Alerts individually.
• New Alert log event, "Urgent" based on your urgency alert settings.
• Bug fix for when a Ka alert has been muted and then a X/K Spotlocked signal is received, it would unmute the Ka alert.
• Bug fix for when you max out the number of POIs you are unable to delete any POIs.
Previous Updates:
• New onboarding screens to help new users perform the one-time pairing process with their detector.
• Added the option to have the radar detector's alert tones play through the app. The new setting is found in the 'Audio Settings' of R8 Companion.
• The app will read your detector's settings for each signal type's alert tone (1-12) and use the associated alert tone within the app for alerts.
***TIP: Setting the main volume for the detector to 0 on the main alert screen and enabling the detector alert tones, will eliminate the brief audio "blips" you would normally hear when a mute command is first sent to the detector. Only potential threats will then trigger audio through your speaker or audio system providing an extremely quiet ride.
• Improved Bluetooth connection speed (now up to 60% faster) and re-connection reliability.
• New 'GPS Warmup' feature that keeps the detector quiet for a 'user set' number of seconds or until a GPS connection is established with your detector and/or iPhone. Useful for parking garages etc.
• New ability to unlock a Ka 'mute mem' or 'auto mem' from within the app.
• Tuned existing K-Notch for Acuras/Hondas based on historical data.
• Added ability to tun ON/OFF the function of SpotLocks automatically writing the location to your detector's "manual mute" memory when a locked SpotLock is created (This setting is found on the map screen).
• Added volume adjustment sliders for the detector's main and mute volume levels to the main alert screen.
• Added the ability view and change the R8 mode between Advanced, Highway, City and Auto to the main alert screen.
• Added a new R8 settings screen to modify some of the more popular R8 settings (more to come in future updates). The list of settings that can be modified are as follows:
• Laser ON/OFF
• X Band ON/OFF
• K Band ON/OFF
• K Pop ON/OFF

R8 Companion
更新日志
"Feels like a new detector!", -e This is what people are saying after using R8 Companion™ - See what all the fuss is about, try it for yourself!
Seamless settings integration was the goal of this new update. If you liked R8 Companion before this release, you are going to LOVE it after! This update features the ability to modify the most popular settings on your R8 radar detector right from the app! See the list below for a complete list of the settings you can modify (more settings coming in future updates). Spread the word, it is only going to get better. If you have an idea / suggestion you would like included in a future update, please visit https://crackedpixel.com/contact-us to let us know. Thanks!
Version 1.06 Updates:
• Improved Bluetooth connection speed (now up to 60% faster) and re-connection reliability.
• New 'Alert History' formatting.
• Improved 'quiet ride' / 'GPS mute' system.
• If GPS is turned off/doesn't connect on the detector, the app will default to the iPhone GPS providing a more precise GPS experience.
• New 'GPS Warmup' feature that keeps the detector quiet for a 'user set' number of seconds or until a GPS connection is established with your detector and/or iPhone. Useful for parking garages etc.
• New ability to unlock a Ka 'mute mem' or 'auto mem' from within the app.
• Improved app's handling of POP/MRCD/T/GT3/4 signals and announcements.
• Added 'Pop' type (Ka vs K) to alert log.
• Fixed a bug where a 'ghost' mute could unmute during the signal "latch" period.
• Fixed a rare bug where the alert could remain on screen after there were no more alerts present.
• Fixed bug of having a 'Mute Mem' Ka location voice announced.
• Fixed bug of a 'Mute Mem' Ka not being greyed out on the app's main alert screen.
Version 1.05 Updates:
• Additional optimization to weak muting and 'ghost' muting using historical data.
• Added 'All Threat', K Blk 1 & K Blk 2 to R8 settings screen.
• "Reset to Factory Defaults" button didn't work on some screen sizes.
Version 1.04 Updates:
• Added ability to turn ON/OFF announcements for when the SpotLocks system locks a location (New setting can be found on the audio settings screen).
• Tuned existing K-Notch for Acuras/Hondas based on historical data.
• Added ability to tun ON/OFF the function of SpotLocks automatically writing the location to your detector's "manual mute" memory when a locked SpotLock is created (This setting is found on the map screen).
• Enhanced 'auto learn' functionality of SpotLocks to NOT unlock/delete Spotlocks when the associated band has been turned off in the detector's firmware.
• Added volume adjustment sliders for the detector's main and mute volume levels to the main alert screen.
• Added the ability view and change the R8 mode between Advanced, Highway, City and Auto to the main alert screen.
• Added a new state for the 'mute button' on the main alert screen. It will now show when the detector is no longer receiving a signal, but is still displaying it on the detector (known as 'signal latch'). The 'mute button' will show "Sig Latch" to signify the signal is no longer being detected.
• Added a new R8 settings screen to modify some of the more popular R8 settings (more to come in future updates). The list of settings that can be modified are as follows:
• Laser ON/OFF
• X Band ON/OFF
• K Band ON/OFF
• K Pop ON/OFF
• K Filter ON/OFF
• K Scans (Narrow, Wide, Extended)
• TSF ON/OFF
• Ka Band ON/OFF
• Ka Pop ON/OFF
• Ka Filter ON/OFF
• Ka Scans (Narrow, Wide, Segmented)
• Ka 1-9 Segs ON/OFF
• Auto Mute Volume ON/OFF
• Change Alert Display (#1, #2, #3 - NOTE: Bug in firmware makes it so you have to select #3 from the detector. The firmware won't read or write display option #3).
• Select Display Color
• Select Display Brightness
• Select Priority Band
• Auto Mute Memory ON/OFF
• Select Auto Mute Memory Bands

• SpotLocks™ works seamlessly with your R8’s built in 'auto mute memory' locations. If you create or delete a location from the app it will apply the changes to your R8 at the same time.
• 'Proximity' meter - leverages the high resolution signal strength and direction information provided by the detector to show you a better representation of the signal's source.
• 'K & X falses in area' meter shows you how many possible false alerts exist in the area you are travelling based on the accumulated SpotLock data™.
• 'Custom Phrases' for a given threat's audio announcements.
• High resolution meters for the priority alert (Not limited to the # of bars on the R8 display).
• Customizable heads-up display (HUD).
