While it goes without saying that Google Maps and Waze are two great GPS navigation apps with radar alerts (especially the latter thanks to its active community), the truth is that there is life beyond these Google apps, and indeed radar detection, has very extensive applications.
Radar alert is a function usually offered as a complement to navigation, but there are apps that make exactly this their main claim due to their careful strategy to detect all DGT radars and the way they inform you in case the worst happens. No matter what, you’ll find out. That’s exactly how it works Coyote, one of the most popular radar warning devices.
Before we start, Coyote is a paid app available on the Google Play Store (also in the App Store if we have an iPhone), but 30-day free trial period This can help us discover whether its features will make us want to open our wallets or just use the free time to go on a trip.
After downloading and installing it on our phone, we will need to create an account with our email and phone and activate the 30-day trial. I recommend you Please read carefully during the installation process because, for example, three optional SDKs for analytics, statistics and advertising appear as soon as you start, and you can leave them downloaded by saying ‘No thanks’. Then other common and logical permissions like location, notifications, sound or overlay mode (very useful for showing a summary icon even if there is another app on the screen).
If we stick to the maps, It’s not the flashiest or most colorful app, but it’s functional Reaching from point A to point B without getting lost with two and three-dimensional vision and day/night mode. In addition, like other radar applications, it can be used in the background or with overlay mode, which allows us to have another navigation application in the foreground that we like the appearance of more.
The good thing is that you The interface is very clear and has large, simple and identifiable icons., something those who aren’t too familiar with technology or the best vision will appreciate. There is also nothing to obstruct the view: a map that takes up almost the entire screen, a search box and options in the upper area, three icons to keep your home, work and favorite addresses at hand, and in the lower corners, speed limits and a button that notifies you of any mishaps on the road at any time.
During this trial period we achieved: Connect to car to use with Android Auto (also with Apple CarPlay), which further enhances the experience by being displayed on a larger screen integrated into the dashboard. Of course, I can say that this is a “premium” function and we will have to pay more if we want to enjoy it after the trial period.
But let’s get to the important stuff, the real bastion of this app: radar detection and alerting. With Coyote, we will always see where the radars around us are in the middle of the journey or before we set off, while we are still planning the route. The team behind Coyote explains: ‘It has the largest radar database on the market, including: fixed, mobile, sectional, band, traffic light and mobile phone radars.’ I found viewing maps and organized routes very tiring.
The icing on the cake is that mobile and mobile radars also have a community of more than five million users across Europe to notify about traffic jams, works, stalled vehicles, accidents, objects on the road, maintenance, slippery road or deteriorating roads. Even if we see a driver going the wrong way. Not only are there many milestones available, but marking them is easy, fast and intuitive: Just two taps on icons identified at a glance So nothing will happen to you on the road.
I finally found his Efforts to keep you informed of radars and other milestones: It has a large, clear icon, as well as audio and visual alerts, even if it’s in the background. All of this can be configured with fairly simple settings and suggestions such as increasing the phone volume.
Another interesting detail is this: Choose between classic map or expert modeIt leaves the map behind in favor of a simple widget added to the screen that includes the basics: showing the speed of the road and ours, marking milestones, returning to the map and, of course, notifications.
Value? This is a personal matter and How much do you use the car in your daily life and what do you like to run with?. Someone who drives the Pamplona to Madrid route every two or three weeks as a server and vice versa is not the same as someone who is a delivery professional or commercial employee. For occasional use, the price is 7.99 euros per month, and if we are clear that we will use it frequently, we save 65.99 euros per year. However, considering that our vehicle has Android Auto, we can say that the Premium version is interesting for 91.99 Euros per year.
In any case, it seems to me One of the most comprehensive applications at the radar detection levelVarious notification paths, a classic but intuitive and easy-to-use interface and good maps so you don’t forget to take your foot off the accelerator.
