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.
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 your detector connected, the next turn rides on the Lock Screen beside the live alert.

Threats on your route
Before you set off, rDetect scans the route against your own alert history and the cameras it knows about, and marks them on the map ahead of you. See enforcement coming.

Threat closing in
The blip walks inward toward your car as the signal climbs, and the sweep quickens with it. HUD mode strips away everything except what matters.
Multiple bogeys
Multiple simultaneous threats tracked independently, each with its own band, strength and direction arrow.
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: drive time, alert counts by band, peak and average speed, voltage range, and mute event breakdown.
See the cameras before your route does
Plan a drive and rDetect scans the route ahead — speed and red-light cameras, plate readers, toll gantries, and your own logged alert spots — and drops them on the map in your direction of travel.
- Your alert history and known cameras, scanned along the route
- Refreshed as you drive, from OpenStreetMap
- Threats marked ahead, not behind
Packed With Powerful Features
rDetect goes beyond basic Bluetooth connectivity with turn-by-turn navigation, route-aware threat scanning, intelligent muting, and a complete Apple ecosystem experience.
Real-Time Alerts
Instant visual and audio notifications for radar and laser threats. See signal strength, band type, frequency, and direction at a glance.
Smart Muting
Intelligent false alert suppression with GPS lockouts, speed-based rules, signal strength thresholds, and per-band filtering.
Turn-by-Turn Navigation
Plan a route and get live guidance with reroute, Home/Work favorites, and — with your detector connected — the next turn carried on the Lock Screen beside your live alert.
Route Threat Scan
rDetect scans your planned route against your own alert history and known cameras, drops them on the map ahead, and rates every alternate so you can pick the quietest.
GPS Lockouts
Automatic learning of false alert locations. Lockouts tune themselves over time and sync across devices via iCloud.
Community Cameras
Speed cameras, red light cameras, and enforcement devices from OpenStreetMap's crowd-sourced database, refreshed as you drive.
Live Speed Limits
Posted speed limits from OpenStreetMap displayed on your driving HUD. Configurable speed warnings with voice and haptic alerts.
Apple Watch
Real-time alerts with haptic feedback, mute controls, and Always-On Display support right on your wrist.
macOS Companion
rDetect for Mac: browse data on a full-size map, view analytics, import/export, and menu bar quick access.
Home Screen Widgets
At-a-glance connection status, last alert info, and recent alert history right on your home screen and Lock Screen.
Voice Alerts
Spoken announcements for threats, custom phrases per frequency, and urgency overrides that mix with your music.
Settings Profiles
Save, compare, and restore detector configurations. Switch between city and highway setups instantly.
Points of Interest
Ten POI types — speed traps, school and construction zones, cameras, plate readers, toll gantries and your own — each with its own radius, spoken phrase and optional speed gate.
Analytics & Trends
Alert trends over time, corridor detection, spatial patterns, and breakdowns by band, time of day, and day of week.
HUD Mode
Minimal driving display with speed, posted limit, trip stats and the live alert. Follows your iOS text size, and stays legible in daylight.
iCloud Sync
Alert history, lockouts, POIs, and profiles sync across your devices through your own private iCloud — automatically, with no account and nothing to switch on.
Alert History
Review past alerts with detailed logs, map visualization, statistics charts, and pattern detection.
Data Hygiene
Wizard-guided review of duplicate, stale and never-triggered entries — nothing is merged, disabled or deleted until you approve the scan results.
