Terms of Use
Last updated 18 August 2026
1. Agreement
By downloading or using V1Journey ("the app"), you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use the app.
The app is provided by Blaze8 LLC, a Colorado limited liability company ("we", "us").
2. Licence
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the app on Apple-branded devices you own or control, in accordance with Apple's App Store Terms of Service.
You may not reverse-engineer, decompile, redistribute, resell, or attempt to extract the source of the app, except to the extent that restriction is prohibited by applicable law.
3. What you need
V1Journey requires a Valentine One Gen2 radar detector and an iPhone. Without a compatible detector, the radar features of the app do nothing. Full requirements are listed at v1journey.com/support.
We do not sell, supply, warrant or support the detector itself.
4. Purchases and subscriptions
V1Journey is free to download and includes a complete navigation app with live radar alert display at no cost.
V1Journey Pro is available as either an auto-renewing annual subscription or a one-time lifetime unlock.
- All purchases are processed by Apple through In-App Purchase. We do not handle your payment details.
- An annual subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple ID is charged on renewal.
- Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple ID account settings. We cannot cancel it for you.
- Refunds are handled by Apple, under Apple's policies. We cannot issue refunds directly.
- Restore Purchases and Redeem Code are available in the app's Settings.
- Prices may change. Any change to a subscription price is subject to Apple's notice and consent requirements.
If your Pro access lapses: every lockout zone and every saved alert remains on your device — viewable and deletable — and begins working again the moment you resubscribe. We do not delete your data when a subscription ends.
5. Safe operation is your responsibility
You are responsible for obeying all traffic laws and for the safe operation of your vehicle at all times.
V1Journey displays information. It does not drive. Do not interact with the app in a way that distracts you from driving. Configure the app before you set off, and use CarPlay, voice, or a passenger while under way.
Never let anything the app shows you — a route, an alert, or the absence of an alert — override your own judgement, the posted signage, or the instructions of a law enforcement officer.
6. Your legal responsibility for the detector
Radar detector laws vary and it is your responsibility to comply with them. As at the date of these terms, in the United States:
- Radar detectors are prohibited for passenger vehicles in Virginia and the District of Columbia.
- Federal regulation 49 CFR 392.71 prohibits the use or possession of a radar detector in a commercial motor vehicle, and prohibits carriers from permitting it.
- Radar detectors are prohibited on virtually all US military installations under base standing orders.
- Laws differ outside the United States, including a number of jurisdictions where detectors are prohibited outright.
We do not provide legal advice, and this list is not exhaustive or guaranteed current. Check the law where you drive.
7. What V1Journey is not for
V1Journey exists to give you awareness of what your detector is receiving, and fewer false alerts. It is not sold, marketed, or intended as a tool for evading law enforcement, exceeding speed limits, or avoiding lawful traffic enforcement, and you agree not to use it for those purposes.
8. No warranty on detection or suppression
The app is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
In particular, we do not warrant that:
- The app will detect, display, or announce any given signal.
- Any suppression feature — lockout zones, Savvy low-speed muting, automute, auto-snooze, or the K-band filter — will correctly distinguish a false alert from a genuine one. These features silence alerts. A silenced alert is one you did not hear. You accept that risk when you enable them.
- Navigation, routing, arrival times or map data will be accurate, current, or suitable for your journey. Routing and map data come from Apple.
- The app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or compatible with any particular vehicle, head unit, or detector firmware version.
Certain documented limitations are inherent to the detector and its ESP protocol, not to the app — including that laser alerts cannot be unmuted by the app on any firmware, and that low-speed suppression is band-agnostic and will therefore suppress laser at low speed. These are described at v1journey.com/support.
9. Independence from Valentine Research
V1Journey is an independent third-party application. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or a product of Valentine Research, Inc.
"Valentine One", "V1", "Savvy" and "V1connection" are the property of their respective owners and are used here only to identify compatible hardware.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use the app.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the app will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid for it in the twelve months preceding the claim, or USD 50.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
11. Apple
You acknowledge that these terms are between you and us, not Apple, and that Apple is not responsible for the app or its content. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support. In the event of any failure of the app to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation.
Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
12. Termination
This licence ends automatically if you breach these terms. You may end it at any time by deleting the app.
13. Changes
We may update these terms. Material changes will be reflected in the date above and, where significant, in the app's release notes. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept it.
14. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. You agree that the state and federal courts located in Colorado will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from these terms, except where applicable consumer-protection law gives you the right to bring a claim in your own jurisdiction.
