Could have been 5 stars, but there are some glitches

First of all, love this app. It does what it’s supposed to do. Straight to the point, no BS.

But there are some glitches after the recent updates that have been bugging me. Whenever I switched to another app while using the dash cam, the screen turned black and couldn’t connect back to the camera after that. I could go on without switching apps, but it also happened when I received phone calls, which is unavoidable. There were some instances that I was driving, someone from my family called me, which I had to pick up, and it instantly blacked out the dash cam. Couldn’t reconnect while driving. Which is quite inconvenient.

Could dev team fix this? Please.

Great App

Tons of features. Very intuitive design. Beautiful.

just what I’ve been looking for

This app does everything I wanted in a dash cam. I am 100% satisfied. Beyond the features and ability to use an old cell phone, the developer respects my privacy - I appreciate that - a lot! I will recommend this to family and friends. I will also encourage users to buy a good mount; windshield or dash - a cheap mount will produce jittery images, not due to the app but rather the mount.

Simple and easy to use and navigate.
Thank you 🌹

Does a great job for an app on a phone

So far I am impressed and there is no annoying adds. I like you can control how it is saved, as clips, or a loop that you control the size of. Good job guys!
