Your Uniden Detector, Smarter Than Ever
The ultimate companion for Uniden R4, R8, and R9 radar detectors. Turn-by-turn navigation with threats scanned along your route, smart muting, GPS lockouts, live speed limits, Apple Watch, macOS, and iCloud sync.
"Best companion app for the R8, hands down. Smart muting alone makes it worth it."
"The Apple Watch alerts are a game changer. I never have to look at my phone while driving."
"GPS lockouts auto-learn perfectly. After a week, my commute is completely silent."
See It In Action
From the moment you connect to your end-of-drive summary, rDetect keeps you informed at every step.
All clear
Connected and cruising. Your detector is scanning all bands while rDetect monitors signal activity, speed, and nearby lockouts.
Ka band detected
Instant alert with band, frequency, direction, and signal strength. Your Watch buzzes on your wrist simultaneously.
Navigate with guidance
Plan a route and rDetect gives you turn-by-turn guidance right alongside your alerts — with a Live Activity on the Lock Screen so you never lose the next turn.
Threats on your route
Before you even reach them, rDetect scans the road ahead and marks speed cameras and known alert spots along your corridor. See enforcement coming.
Threat closing in
The proximity meter fills as signal strength grows. HUD mode strips away everything except what matters.
Multiple bogeys
Multiple simultaneous threats tracked independently. Signal history graphs show each bogey's trajectory.
Speed check
Live posted speed limits from OpenStreetMap. Configurable warnings with voice and haptic alerts when you exceed the threshold.
Trip complete
Automatic end-of-drive summary: alert counts by band, peak speed, distance, voltage range, and mute event breakdown.
See the cameras before your route does
Plan a drive and rDetect scans the whole corridor ahead — speed cameras, red-light cameras, and known alert spots — and drops them on the map in your direction of travel.
- Corridor scan across your entire route
- Refreshed as you drive, from OpenStreetMap
- Threats marked ahead, not behind
