RadarCopter 1.7.0 brings a more dependable radar and a focused CarPlay experience. CarPlay now reliably switches to the Pro map as soon as subscription or rewarded access is restored, without reconnecting. CarPlay now follows the car and direction of travel, keeps police and ordinary aircraft visually distinct, and adds direct recentering. CarPlay is a Pro feature. Scanning now clearly separates active, empty, filtered, offline and failed states, with better recovery after connection interruptions. Aircraft identity merging and a redesigned helicopter marker improve map accuracy. Free users can also choose optional rewarded videos for temporary Pro access: 15 minutes after one completed ad, 30 minutes total after two, and up to one hour after three. Ads appear only when you choose to watch one. Also new: frequent-activity areas, forward-priority driving alerts, post-drive summaries, an optional Live Activity, a keep-screen-awake setting, background scan diagnostics and stability fixes. New: report a helicopter directly from the radar. Users within 20 km can receive a clearly labelled, unverified community alert and see its distinct magenta area. Activity-area alerts now avoid duplicate or contradictory sounds when a helicopter is already present.

RadarCopter 1.6.2 expands coverage to 10 new countries: Czechia, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia, Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. The radar also feels much more alive: aircraft now glide smoothly between updates instead of jumping, new contacts pop in, lost contacts fade out with a clear signal-lost ring, and moving aircraft keep drifting along their course between scans. Opening the app got prettier too, with a brand-new launch animation that lands right on the live radar. We also fixed a bug that could leave the compass frozen, so the radar didn't turn with you. Plus several smaller fixes for performance and stability.

RadarCopter 1.6.1 is a reliability update on top of the 1.6.0 map redesign: scanning now recovers instantly after interruptions, adjusting the radar radius is smoother, and voice and sound alerts are more dependable — especially while the app is in the background. Aircraft details now stay open while the radar refreshes, and coverage detection is more accurate. Also fixed a bug that could make the map stop moving right after upgrading to Pro. Plus several smaller fixes for performance and stability. New: when you contact support, there's now a CarPlay topic — pick it and you'll see right away that CarPlay is under development.

RadarCopter 1.6.0 gives the map view a cleaner full-screen redesign behind the radar with a collapsible aircraft list, so you can see more of the map. You'll now also get a clear badge when our support team replies to your message, so you never miss a response. This update also fixes a few bugs and improves overall performance and stability.

RadarCopter 1.5.4 adds a Keep screen awake setting, improves support diagnostics without sending your location, and improves background audio alerts.

RadarCopter 1.5.3 adds a one-time SightFind spotlight after updating, keeps the SightFind link in Settings, refreshes the What's New trigger, and adds the logo credit in Settings.

RadarCopter 1.5.2 now shows support as a compact inbox: New message at the top and all previous threads below, with full history and replies when opened. It also keeps the one-minute support limiter, send-button fixes, Pro 20 km activation default, radius-priority scans, startup entitlement, and background scan hardening.

RadarCopter 1.5.1 improves the first-run and Settings tutorials, road-map startup, no-internet warnings, repeated update-news popups, locked-phone alert audio, music-volume restoration after alerts, and voice notifications in the selected app language. This build also improves lost-contact handling: Pro users get a clearer, server-timed missing-helicopter aura with a tappable `?` marker, while Free users keep generic aircraft-only radar markers. Background scans are more resilient to network stalls. The release keeps the Western Europe coverage expansion, Free basic radar, Pro alerts/roads/CarPlay features, and the expanded Usage Guide from 1.5.

RadarCopter 1.5.0 expands police-helicopter coverage to supported Western Europe countries. The basic radar is now available on Free with simplified green aircraft arrows, while Pro unlocks detailed markers, filters, alerts, roads, expanded radius, and CarPlay. This update also improves the tutorial and Usage Guide, large-text fit, aircraft-list scrolling, and road rendering after Pro unlock.
