Wavelens for Windows, Mac and Linux

The same live list, signatures and alerts as the phone apps, on a computer, through a Wavelens radio. Free. Listening to your Wavelens Pi and following trunked systems is $49 a year, with 7 days free, and every Full Spectrum kit comes with the first year.

Free, for everyone

  • Live: every Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and RF device a Spotter or a Pi hears, matched against the same signature pack as the phone apps, with the reason for each match.
  • Alerts for the kinds you choose.
  • The Pi's sweep: the spectrum and the systems nearby.
  • Spotters on USB or Bluetooth, and several radios at once. No account, nothing sent anywhere.

Pi listening: $49 a year

With a Wavelens Pi (the Full Spectrum kit or a Scanner), a key turns on the Scanner tab's listening:

  • hearing the radio through the computer's speakers, and clicking anywhere on the spectrum to listen there;
  • SCAN: the Pi locks onto the nearest trunked system and follows its calls, with talkgroups and unit IDs;
  • HOLD, SKIP, holding or muting a talkgroup, and the public safety / fire / EMS filters.

Encrypted calls are shown, never played. The phone apps' listening is not affected: this is only the computer app.

Start 7 days free

Then $49 a year (plus sales tax where it applies) until you cancel. Cancel any time before the 7 days are up and you pay nothing. Bought a Full Spectrum kit? Your first year's key comes by email with the order; you don't need to subscribe until it runs out.

Your key

The key arrives by email a minute after you subscribe. In Wavelens, open the Scanner tab, click Enter key, paste it and click Save. It works offline: the app checks it on the computer and never contacts us. Each renewal emails a new key, a few days before the old one ends. Use it on the computers you own.

Manage or cancel

Change your card, see receipts or cancel at the subscription page (sign in with the email you subscribed with). Cancelling stops the next renewal; your key keeps working until the end of the year you paid for. Questions: wavelensapp@gmail.com.

The downloads are not code-signed yet, so Windows and macOS ask you to confirm the first time: first-open steps. How to connect a radio.
