What is RF Analyzer?

RF Analyzer is a software-defined radio app for hobbyists and radio amateurs. Plug a supported SDR receiver into your phone with a USB OTG cable and it draws the radio spectrum around you in real time, with a scrolling waterfall and demodulation so you can listen to FM, AM and SSB signals.

Key Features

  • Supports RTL-SDR, HackRF, Airspy and HydraSDR
  • Live FFT spectrum and waterfall view
  • Demodulates FM, AM and SSB audio
  • Record and replay raw IQ files
