I tried this app for about 40 minutes using my Galaxy S23 Ultra. It worked great, however… I noted the phone got quite hot. Too much heat and excessive usage of video. Later I read that using an expensive phone for a dash cam is not a good idea, no matter how good the app […]

When I had this app on my previous phone, which is the exact same model as this one, it ran fine. Now it doesn’t run the same, and the lag it is causing is really bad. I don’t know if the lag is being created by the ads that are now on it, or the […]
Overall, it’s a great app and exactly what I’ve been looking for. However, it lacks at least one feature that would make a drastic change in quality. 1: allow full focus control. The current presets don’t work well enough. Either infinite focus is still out of focus slightly or it sets to super close up […]
Had this for about 2 weeks now. Awesome. I prop my phone on the dash using a suction-cup holder. Open the app, press the record button and it records video in 5-minute increments you can retrieve in your pictures folder. It will even record in the background if you’re using Google navigation or talking to […]
I’ve been having Droid Dashcam for over a year, and daily the last several months. I can’t put into words how much I recommend it! The ONLY complaint I have – which I won’t dock a star for – is I wish one of the available settings was 60fps. I’ve found the the best setting […]
Just downloaded, but so far it seems to do everything i want it to do, is user friendly which is most important when riding motorcycles. This app also has more control options than any other I have downloaded as of yet. The speed display seems accurate as well.. Adds suck just like any other app, […]
A lot of use from this camera. The only drawback I see is that you can’t backup and restore settings for different purposes. I will give 5 stars for the addition of this function. Useful as dash cam, body cam in a holster, proves how and when I left work vehicles with all data in […]
I love this app, and would gladly pay for a paid version. But *please* add the option to terminate and close the app completely from the menu. I have no need to have the background watcher process running when I’m not in my car, it chews up battery, and having to force terminate it all […]
BEST APP EVER!!! This is a more functional dash cam, with more useable features & options, than my last three actual dash cams! I love that it does a continuous loop recording, with a max storage cap, so that it doesn’t eat up your storage. The Auto Day/Night, subtitles on the recording, & the customizable […]
This used to work better but has somehow just been worse. It doesn’t do sound anymore and the speedometer is always off. Worse now is that this app drains and uses my phone battery more than ANY other app even without using it at all for the day. It’s also been really annoying when auto […]
I was looking for an app that continuously captures (only) the last 4 minutes of video (in case something interesting hapoens 😀 ) while allowing music & other apps to run at the same time. This is the best one out there- full featured, no bugs, not bloated, doesn’t ask for sketchy permissions. If this […]
Pretty good app. It would receive 5 stars if (1) there was an ability to chose a focus point other than the center (like the top, so it doesn’t not focus on the dashboard) and (2) the ability to have it turn off when you turn your GPS/location off. I don’t use a car charger […]
Overall, this app is a must have on your phone, the GPS is very accurate and the display you can actually set it to landscape or portrait as you may need it. I’ve been using this app for a long time and it has never gone down or frozen on me. (EDIT) Ok, I’ve just […]
This is a great app. I have the phone mounted to my dash so the cameras can see out. With wide angle it captures everything I see driving and more. There is a rolling limit you can set on the size kept in memory. Be careful though, on hot days and a few apps running […]
This app does everything it claims to do. The only issue I’ve run across is, when it’s raining, the phone has trouble with focus. I get a nice clear image if raindrops on my windshield. Perhaps there’s an option to set the focal length, but I haven’t found it. It would also be amazing if […]
Works great! free and worth more than a full system if you have a good phone. I use this on my motorcycle handlebars mounted phone; always catches the action and just as good as your phone video can perform but works in the background. i also use auto start with Bluetooth device so when my […]
App seems to work well and is very easy to setup, I’m using the auto start feature for when the phone connects to my car Bluetooth. Never have to remember to start it, just put my phone in the holder and go! Haven’t needed to use any footage yet, but it’s move to know it’s […]
Love the features of the app, but there are two major drawbacks. First, even when the phone is charging and the app is running in the background with the screen off, it drains the battery. Second, probably as a result of the first, it causes the phone to get VERY hot, even in a cool […]
App is great, allows for audio/video recordings, tons of customization settings, only thing I wish it had was video resolutions that are wider than they are tall when the phone is in the portrait mode, as currently if the phone is in portrait, a lot of the frame is my dashboard/the sky. (Also the highet […]
LOVED how it worked. However, after any 5th or 6th time using it. I noticed my battery on my phone was almost drained completely after 30 minsof using it? When I looked at my battery usage it says it was running for 4 1/2 hours!?… but i only used it for 30 mins and I […]
