FALSE K ALERTS and BUGGY APP

I am very disappointed with this escort detector. I sold my 8500 to get this one and I made such a big mistake. This detector looks nice and is easy to hang up. Con: FALSE K-ALARMS! Every time I'm on the freeway my detector has been firing for a K alert every 2 minutes. It only went up to 1-3 bars but then went off. It was on long enough and then went off again and when I turned it off it rang again. That got really annoying. I updated the radar on my PC to the latest version and tried all the other "solutions" found on the web and nothing helped. The ONLY way to stop false K warnings is to turn K off, what if the cop actually uses K, then I'm screwed. My 8500 never did that. There are so many complaints about this and I'm not sure how they can continue to sell this product. The next thing this radar gets its stats from is a mobile app, this mobile app is very buggy. Every time you get in the car you have to start the app because you disconnected. Every time it says 'Request timed out' I'm pretty sure it's due to the switch from 4G to WiFi in my house. So many apps work great from 4G to Wi-Fi and vice versa. Every time I get in the car I have to run the app to send data to the radar. Sometimes he couldn't find my radar, I had to turn it off and go back inside. Then, one weekend, I couldn't log in at all. Overall, this supposedly "technologically advanced" radar is simply flawed and behind schedule for updates. I don't know how this product can be sold if it's not even usable.
