### 1/5 — Do not work!

*2026-07-14*

Absolute garbage. The app shows that it’s recording, but then you realize nothing was actually recorded. Out of nowhere, the app freezes and you have to restart it. It never works — it fails 100% of the time.

### 4/5 — Работа в фоновом режиме

*2025-11-02, version 1.11*

Пользуюсь этой программой на Андроиде. Очень удобная операция - работа в фоновом режиме. Включил регистратор, свернул и можно использовать другие программы или просто выключить экран.
На Айфоне такой опции нет, получается...

### 4/5 — Good app with some flaws

*2025-05-03*

Over all i would say the app performs as intended, being able to control camera quality and bit rate is a good feature when it comes to protecting yourself on the streets. However, this app has some flaws aswell. Speed is not accurate and often jumps around. Location cordinates are not fully visiable in real time, and if you record with audio, you CANNOT listen to music. I still suggest this app as it has a no audio recording option, but there needs to be audio recording without hindering music. Other than that, great app.

(Ps i may purchase a cheap phone off market place and use it, as the app doesnt require internet)

**Developer response:** Hi. Which version of iOS are you using? The latest iOS version allows music to play while recording videos. 'Current Address' for coordinates will be added later to both the subtitles and the main screen.

### 5/5 — Top-Notch Dash Cam!

*2025-04-25, version 1.10*

Absolutely love this mobile dash cam! Super clear video, even at night, easy to use, and the app is smooth. Feels like a high-end gadget in a small package. Total game-changer for safe driving!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2024-12-15*

It's a good dash camera it shows on most phones the location on the screen you can navigate on settings to your choice of settings but other than that it's a good choice in  using one of your phones that you have with the iPhone it doesn't show as much detail as it would on an Android phone I prefer to use an android.
