Well, I'm very impressed. I got a chance to run this on a drive from GR to Lansing. I had a number of alerts that were 10 miles out. Incredible how nice it is to just run it in the background and when I get an alert, a notification pops up. One tap, and I'm back in the Highway Radar app and can see the cop on the map.
I would definitely recommend this app for anyone that needs that extra distance.
It does take some adjustment to get it set so every VVaze alert in a 10 mile radius isn't setting it off, but with the forward alerts set to 10 miles, side and back both set to 1 mile, I found the app a lifesaver.

I'm assuming this is for Android as I do not see an app by that name on iOS?

Yes, this is for Android only for now. However, to my best knowledge, @m3o has some plans of bringing this to iOS.

does it work of Waze ?

To get the app to give alerts you need to enter a server host name, which involves VVaze. Check out this thread for more information on alerts and the app's ongoing evolution. I've been using it since shortly after it came out and really like it. It's simple looking, but it does what it does very well so far.

Highway Radar: Waze + VASCAR aircraft alerts on Android

After I moved to the US four months ago, I tried to use Waze as a primary navigation app. It does a great job on speed trap alerting in more or less urban areas but doesn't work really well on inter-city highways for two reasons: it often alerts too late, it doesn't know anything about VASCAR...
