    Cool. I tested that with Android to iOS and it looks like the process completed successfully, though I haven't tried the lockouts out with the NR yet. Thank you for adding this! It's great for those of us who already have Android lockouts.

    The whole direction ALP (Tom) is going with this ALP/Net integration is getting better every week..I think it would be choice to have a dedicated optional add on screen like the Stinger has...I find having the app connect reliably whether a hardware or user issue sometimes misses at times and the app tends to interfere with my Spotify. A dedicated panel would be a perfect compliment to the system.

    By interfering with Spotify, do you mean the volume in Spotify gets attenuated to a lower volume even when no alerts are being heard from ALP/NR? I find that when I am listening to music on my iPhone 6 using iOS music app, the volume gets lowered during any audible warning or tone but does not return to full volume. The only way to restore my volume is to hit the back arrow in iOS for the song that is playing which restarts the song. All of my other apps, Waze, or Escort Live lower the music volume but return it back to previous state without issue. I find this to be quite annoying.

    As for the dedicated screen, that might be nice. I assume you are saying for it to be wired? If all you want is a dedicated BT screen then I feel the response you will get is to have a dedicated phone or tablet

    We are still looking into the volume restoring issue after alerts play out.

    Before looking at an Escort Radar Detector you should really check out Uniden Detectors.. Uniden R1 & R3 are the best performing radar detectors for the money.

    Not sure if this is a issue with the beta or my BT, but I thought I would mention it anyway.

    I find on first power up it drops the BT and switches over control set sometimes, cycling the power to the CPU fixes it and it's happy again.

    Could be my iPhone or BT but it only happened since the beta

    Yes to the first issue...something is slightly off with the BT connectivity..

    As for the screen panel a perfect fit would be either hardwire or BT...hardwire for the die hard installer types and BT for the easy place anywhere types

    Noticed today that my ALPConnect would disconnect after 30 secs, recycle... stay on for a min or so and do it all over again. I deleted the app and reloaded with same result. This is the first time I have noticed this and it happens to coincide with the official 2.3 release. I will keep an eye on it. Also, when I use the app to modify my ALP sensors (turn them all off) I still get a warning for sensor fails if they are disconnected (and deselected in config). The app doesnt specify which sensors, to find that out I have to listen to the Hi-Fi which told me F1 & F2.
