"V1 Companion™" V3.03 Features:
*NEW* - SpotLocks™ GPS location based lockouts.
Automatic, intelligent location based learning / unlearning of potential false alerts (you have the ability to turn this feature on or off).
Discrete signal locking™ - helps prevent locking out real police radar in close frequency range to the SpotLock™ frequency.
Frequency drift compensation™ - helps compensate for changes of the location's frequency drifting up and down over time at the saved location.
BSM guard™ - helps to keep non-stationary vehicle BSM/CAS signals from polluting the SpotLock™ stationary location database.
Continuous location tuning - Whether a SpotLock™ is actively locked or learning, the SpotLock™ system will continue to learn and tune itself over time to better handle future encounters.
Manual creation/deletion of SpotLocks™ - Manually create/delete SpotLocks™ by easily tapping a graphical 'lock' image on your phone screen if desired.
The SpotLocks™ system is optimized separately for each of the V1Gen1 and V1Gen2 platforms.
SpotLocks™ take advantage of the advanced muting ability of the V1Gen2, so all SpotLocks™ are quiet from the onset, with no annoying initial 'blip' of audio.
Backup and Restore your SpotLocks using your iCloud drive.
