About Police Patrol Simulator

Police Patrol Simulator is SkisoSoft's open-world patrol game for iPhone, iPad and Mac — a loading-screen-free city where you drive a cruiser with working blinkers, horn and sirens, pull over speeders, rise through the ranks and unlock and customise a garage of police cars — free with ads, a $0.99 ad removal and packs to $5.99, on the App Store since April 2021 and last updated in January 2024. There is no Android version. It holds a 4.7 from 4,520 ratings, and its reviews are a wish list: callouts, pursuits, more lights, an update.

Police Patrol Simulator Review: iPhone's Best Cop Driving Game, Parked Since 2024

Sirens, Blinkers, Speeders: Patrol as Driving Sim

The design is a driving simulator with a badge: a large open city without loading screens or limits, patrolled from behind the wheel or a dashboard view with a working speedometer, in cruisers that unlock, customise and handle differently. The job is traffic: reckless drivers have taken over the streets, and you stop speeders and violators, issue fines, progress through the ranks and become, in the listing's words, the ultimate law keeper, with blinkers, horn and siren controls a September 2022 five-star singles out. The praise is consistent across five years: a November 2021 five-star thanks SkisoSoft for an actually fun, interactive police game; a May 2024 five-star from a paying customer calls it by far the best of any sims on the App Store; a September 2026 review calls it the best mobile cop game it has played.

The Wish List: Callouts, Pursuits, Lights, Guns — and an Update

Nearly every review asks for the same things, which tells you what the game is: only speeding and traffic violations to police, so a November 2021 four-star wants more scenarios and a July 2024 five-star wants shots-fired and hostage calls with a radio to report your location; a November 2021 review lists the guns it would like; a May 2024 review wants American plates and a brake upgrade; a February 2024 five-star wants brighter and more lights. The January 2024 update — version 1.3.2, GDPR compliance — is the last, and a January 2024 three-star asks whether more are coming; none has in 20 months. The bugs on record are few: an August 2026 two-star cannot change the siren sound from default to sheriff, and an August 2026 one-star reports the game resetting and deducting items with no way to restore purchases.

Free With Ads, $0.99 to Remove Them, Cash and Vehicle Packs to $5.99 — iOS Only

The shop is small and specific: No Ads at $0.99, in-game cash from $12,000 for $0.99 to $100,000 for $5.99, and vehicle packs by update — Update 1.0 vehicles at $4.99, 1.1 at $0.99, 1.2 at $3.99, 1.3 at $2.99 — with the App Store showing in-app purchases and Apple listing purchases, identifiers and usage data not linked to you. The build is 205 MB and runs on iOS 11 or later — one of the lowest floors on the store — on iPhone, iPad and Apple Silicon Macs. There is no Google Play listing for SkisoSoft's game; a similarly named Android title by another studio is a different product. SkisoSoft is an Estonian studio known for truck and driving simulators. English only; rated 13+. Prices are regional.

Verdict

A 6.2: a genuinely good patrol-driving sim with the mechanics its rivals fake, sold fairly and loved by a small crowd for five years, that stopped growing in January 2024 with every reviewer's wish list unanswered. Take it if you want to drive a cruiser and stop speeders on an iPhone, ad-free for a dollar. Skip it if you want callouts, pursuits or anything beyond traffic — and if you are on Android, this is not the game you will find there.

Gameplay6Traffic patrol done properly and nothing beyond it — every review asks for the next thing.

Controls7Driving with the small stuff — indicators, horn, siren — that makes a patrol feel like one.

Replay value5Ranks and a garage to fill, then the same speeders; nothing new since 2024.

Graphics & sound5A functional city and cars — mid, in a fan's word, raw in another's — with an audio rework in 1.3.

Monetisation7A dollar removes the ads; cash and vehicle packs are optional and cheap.

Frequently asked questions

Can you play Police Patrol Simulator offline?

Yes — it is a single-player driving sim with no online features, and Apple lists only purchases, identifiers and usage data not linked to you. The ads need a connection; buy the $0.99 No Ads item and the patrol runs anywhere. An August 2026 one-star's lost items had no restore-purchases option, so keep your receipt.

Is Police Patrol Simulator free?

Free with ads; No Ads is $0.99, in-game cash packs run $0.99 to $5.99, and vehicle packs from each update cost $0.99 to $4.99. Nothing gates the city or the ranks. A May 2024 reviewer calls it the best sim on the store as a paying customer. Prices vary by region.

What device do you need for Police Patrol Simulator?

An iPhone or iPad on iOS 11 or later with 205 MB free, or an Apple Silicon Mac — the settings menu has options to tune it for older devices, per the listing. There is no Android version of SkisoSoft's game; the similarly named title on Google Play is by a different studio.

Can you play Police Patrol Simulator with friends?

No. It is a single-player patrol — you, the cruiser and the speeders — with no multiplayer, and a July 2021 review's request for backup calls is still a request. Friends compare garages, not shifts.

How long is Police Patrol Simulator?

Ranks and the garage take a few weeks of shifts; after that it is a driving sandbox, and an August 2026 review asks for free roam with cheats to keep it going. With no update since January 2024, the content is what it was — which its fans have been playing since 2021 anyway.
