A 20 × 10 × 4 cm box.
The Ghost Scanner computer is 20 cm long, 10 cm wide and 4 cm high. Keep it under a seat, on a shelf, or in a bag. It connects wirelessly to the app on your phone.
Ghost Scanner / What’s in the box
What’s in the box.
Ghost Scanner arrives as a compact portable unit, a windscreen antenna, and app access on your phone. There is no fitted display and no vehicle hardwiring.
What’s in the box / Basic setup
See the system. Then set it up.
Watch the unit, the windscreen antenna, and the first setup — then use the full setup guide for wireless and CarPlay.
Included with every system
Three parts. One £699 system.
The hardware is small. Your phone is the screen. Together they give you emergency vehicle alerts, tracker scanning, anti-hack monitoring, and drone detection alerts coming soon as a free update.
A windscreen antenna, included.
Stick the antenna to the top left of the windscreen, tuck the cable into the headliner, run it down the trim, and plug it directly into the Ghost Scanner box.
Your phone is the display.
App access is included. You get visual alerts, relative signal strength, activity, tracker scanning and anti-hack status on your phone — with six colour themes.
The Ghost Scanner unit
Small enough to put where you need it.
The unit is the computer for the system. It is not permanently fitted to one vehicle. Place it in a car, take it into a house, or carry it between places in a bag.
Plug the included antenna into the box and connect wirelessly to your phone. Power comes from a cigarette lighter socket or USB. There is no dashboard screen to install and no wiring through the firewall.

Windscreen antenna included
Stick it on. Tuck the cable. Plug it in.
The antenna is part of the Ghost Scanner system, not an extra purchase. It attaches to the windscreen and plugs directly into the unit.
A typical route is the top left of the glass, into the headliner, then down the trim to the box inside the vehicle. Cable routing depends on the car. The aim is a tidy install without hardwiring.
- Stick the antenna to the top left of the windscreen.
- Tuck the cable into the headliner, out of sight.
- Run it down the trim and into the Ghost Scanner box.
What you supply
You need a compatible phone for the Ghost Scanner app, and power from a cigarette lighter socket or USB. The phone is the display — the £699 system is not a standalone download.
Use it in more than one vehicle if you want to. Move the unit and antenna rather than committing to a fitted screen in each car. If you plan to use it whilst walking, you will need suitable portable power.
What is not in the box
Ghost Scanner does not include a separate LED or LCD display. That is intentional: the interface lives on your phone. It also does not require professional installation or a subscription to keep working.
Free lifetime software updates and ongoing support are included. Drone detection alerts are coming soon as a free update for existing owners.
