Not sure if this is a bug or not in the latest ALP connect
But my (recent alarms) freezes and wont display any new radar alarms, even though it alerts to them.
Not too fussed if this is fixed in the new version coming soon
Yeah mine does the same too.
It only shows the odd radar freq on the phone.
Pretty sure mine's doing the same. The number of alerts in the list did look pretty light (all k falses in my case), but the laser alerts were all there.
I can't understand why these things only happen on Ozzie stuff,
Cos we are the only ones to mention it hah!

Could be because a high percentage of the Ozzies here are running the STi-R+ integration, which the bug might be linked with :)Quote:

It's not a bug, It only logs important threats and does not log every alert shared by false alert frequencies such as those of automatic door openers.Quote:

Should be an option to turn history filtering on or off. Or better yet a realtime radar freq display.Quote:

The Redflex runs in the low (sub) k range in AU, so that probably needs to be included in the logging, if not a bug

Added K Band segmentation. K1, K2,…K6 from 23950 MHz to 24250 MHz (only STiR antenna at the moment).
Its definitely not a bug and we discussed this many times. One alert several miles away could cause several logs with loosing weak signals and picking them back up over and over. KA & Laser Alerts are high priority and K band which is loaded with false alerts would easily fill out the log with some decent daily traveling. If you want to make a suggestion for a change I created a thread for suggestions for future features:Quote:

Post your suggestions in that thread.
I have a new issue with the Alp Connect Application
iphone 5S running latest ios
Version 1.3 of Alp connect
Version 4.3.4 of firmware
I have 2 applications running on the iphone when driving
One is the Alp Connect & The other is CameraAlert
When I set the Alp Connect to Default audio output I get no output at all from the phone - so I switch it to the 'speaker' option and I get output via the iphone speaker - great you say...however when I switch to the speaker setting the audio output I currently have going via bluetooth for Cameralaert using the head unit in the car + car speakers stops working and is then routed via the iphone speaker.
As soon as I switch the Alp Connect setting back to 'default' for audio output my CameraAlert program then sends audio as expected via bluetooth and car speakers.
Is there something in the setting for Alp connect which is interfering with other programs ?
i have a simular problem, when the speaker is in default alp and car phone bt connected, every thing is fine ,start the car, sound gone stop the car sound is back, change audio to speaker every thing works , strange stuff this blue tooth
Honestly I hate this Bluetooth stuff because every vehicle is different and every vehicle wants to handle the Bluetooth connection differently. It can work great in one car and another has issues. I think Mirage has the right idea... Connect an amplified speaker to your phone audio jack and no more Bluetooth issues.Quote:

How about one better. A Bluetooth speaker / speakerphone. I use the Jabra Freeway because I have one, but you could also use any Bluetooth speaker like the JBL Micro or something like that. I just like the jabra because it has 7 watts and is loud when it's on your visor. I used to love getting scared by the LI speaker. This takes that to a whole new level no matter how loud your music is you will hear this one.Quote:

Lots of updates ect for this app....Couple questions before I venture into this, Saturday
1. While app is up and running and you get a phone call, need to text, email ect....... can you do all those things without interfering with the App/ALP and still be running and still protected?
2. And you can shut the ALP down after an alert just by touching the screen correct, upon starting it back up there will be a minute delay, unless you have it on "unlimited" and it will reset immediately after killing jammer.
1. If you are on the phone the ALP will continue running in the background. Many customers even keep Waze on top with the ALP in the background.Quote:

My plan is to run unlimited anyway--don't like a timer on it haha! thanks for checking :)
Also I'm guessing if the ALP app is in the background--upon an alert it will immediately pop up and show you the alert as well?
You get to check this out? I know you a busy manQuote:

I tried this today and it doesn't do this.
The Alert window will pop up. If you accept the alert it should bring you directly to the ALP Connect app.Quote:

Just IMO, I have a kill switch and my ALP set to jam and not time out, i prefer it this way because i dont have to fumble with anything and just hit the kill, so if im in the situation above and i cant take my eyes off the road to do this and then that...i just hit the switch and call it a day...
Also I have a lock on my phone so if i start the app and then lock the screen or if the screen times out and it goes dark i can NOT do anything on the phone until i put the code in, so again if im getting hit i dont have to think about or worry about anything other then reach foward and flip the switch
Default settings is a 4 Second JTK. You have options and you can choose the best option for your needs. If you want a complete kill its only a $2 switch at any hardware or auto parts store.Quote:

Thanks forgot all about that---yes it was all on but the sound and I also changed it from banner to Alert!
Yes i understand that, I added the switch so, for me i dont have to worry about taking my eyes off the road or looking at my phone, just reach up and flip the kill switch. I just like the ability to control it with a simple flip.

True... I dont use a kill switch and dont feel I have the need. Its just another option if someone wants it. As an Android user I cant wait for the Android App but I went out and bought a used iPhone 4S to use for the ALP Connect. Cost me $150 and its worth it in my opinion but I will switch to the Android version when its available.Quote:

Afaik it does a silent check each time it's started...
New version 1.5 is out in the APP store! I have not tried it yet though
