    So I took another look through the videos to see exactly what happened.

    The first time it actually automatically reconnected after a minute and a half. I was wrong about what I said earlier. (Glad to have video.)

    In the second time I probably didn't give it enough time and had to manually reconnect it. I cancelled it after 65 seconds of being down and it worked when I manually reconnected.

    Also, the connect/disconnect sounds are identical so I can't tell the difference easily when things start going wrong.
    YOu might have other issues going on. How many different BT connections are you running? You might be at your phones max connections. If you are using Live, YaV1, ALP, Car, Etc. you might have issues with your phone. I run 1 connection from CPU to ALP Connect and one from Connect to my Car and if I drop a connection which is rare it will reconnect within seconds.

    Before looking at an Escort Radar Detector you should really check out Uniden Detectors.. Uniden R1 & R3 are the best performing radar detectors for the money.

    I have just two connections to my Android, YaV1 and the ALP. My iPhone connects to Live and my car.

    Its possible signal is having issues running both Android & Apple devices with BT connections in car. Try playing around with them and see if you can find what is causing the interference. Start with just your phone with ALP Connect. Disconnect power and power back up and see how quick it re-connects.

    Okay so I've narrowed it down to the V1C. ALP Connect works fine on its own, but if you have YaV1 running at the same time, the ALP struggles to automatically connect initially and it also keeps dropping the connection and has trouble reconnecting. If I unplug my V1C module, the ALP does just fine. There's no problems with YaV1 maintaining connection so at least for me, I can't use this app with YaV1 and I also can't use it to pair to my car and play audio through my stereo. Is anyone else able to run YaV1 and ALP Connect simultaneously and maintain a solid connect for both apps?

    May be a limitation to the amount of connections your phone can handle at once. I know @Mirage was running both and felt that they were fighting over the GPS at one point but did not mention any problems connecting to both.

    I don't run it all the time, but I do occasionally run YaV1 and ALP Connect without issues. I'm on a Samsung Galaxy S4. I haven't tried it in a while so let me give it a shot on the current release and see if it happens to me as well.
