THINKWARE Cloud
I Will update review once CLOUD is enable. Camera should be able to stay connected to a network at all times. Including parking mode. As of now all features are disable once parking mode activates. Useless if something happens to the car in parking mode since there is not a way for the camera to send a notification due to not network connection. Camera will disconnect from app every time it goes into parking mode. What’s the point on the cloud if this happens? Please update and make so that it is always connected to Internet via hotspot even in parking mode. Last request is for the app to be able to connect to the camera via proxy or cloud when the camera is connected via hotspot or home WiFi/router/car internet. If the camera is connected on my portable internet. I am unable to connect to the camera with my phone due to the camera being connected to that internet connection. Therefore I can’t use cloud features even when the camera is on and connected to the internet from my car. Besides that, the app works great and connects perfectly to my iPhone X. 4 stars until cloud features are enable.

Video Streaming Not Working
I can change settings of the camera but I cannot stream live video from it. I am using iPhone X.
I tried installing this application on my LG v20 and all the function works fine.
Either Thinkware or Apple should fix something on their software. I bought this expensive dashboard camera and phone but they are not working as expected.

Works Great
Just received my F800 Pro. Had the software working in less than five minutes. The iPhone App is easy to use. Very easy to view/change system settings. Video quality is flawless! Had an email question to Customer Support that was answered, almost right away! Great experience, awesome product, glad I did it 👍

Mostly love camera and software, but some bugs remain.
Had Thinkware F800 with rear camera and hard-wired kit installed this week. Connection between app and camera has been the biggest issues. This seems to be improved with latest firmware and app version so long as when connecting to my iPhone hotspot I toggle the hotspot off and on each time I get in the car. I wish the camera could auto-connect to my phone hotspot each time I get in the car.
More inconvenient is that the app disconnects from the camera after several minutes and fails to download files from the camera SD onto my phone (starts download, then app and camera disconnect during download) and download error pops up).
When streaming video files off the camera to my phone, there is an initial second of distortion, but then the video plays well.
The live camera works well. A small button in the top right of the screen allows toggling between front and rear cameras. The ability to split-screen both camera views would be a great addition.
Safety features are easily adjustable by app, and settings seem to save properly with this version.
