Check Your Compatibility
rDetect works with all Bluetooth-enabled Uniden R-series radar detectors on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Mac.
Supported Detectors
Uniden R8
Dual-antenna design with directional arrows. Primary tested device, with 172 of 182 known settings mapped and the built-in Highway, City and Stealth presets.
Uniden R4
Long-range detection with GPS lockouts and excellent filtering. Bluetooth-enabled for seamless app connectivity.
Uniden R9
The flagship remote-mount option. Top-tier performance with extended arrows, Gatso support, and Ka segmentation.
The R8 is our primary development and testing device, with 172 of the app's 182 known settings mapped and the built-in Highway, City and Stealth presets. R4 and R9 are supported via the shared BLE protocol, with about 75 settings mapped for the R4 and 68 for the R9 — settings we haven't mapped for your model don't appear, and anything unverified is shown read-only.
