Does the Job

The app does exactly what it claims. It is a great straight forward tool for recording through the windshield. I like that it doesn't use the audio as I stream music when I drive.

I will probably do the upgrade even though the features aren't important to me. I think app alone warrants 'rewarding' the programmer.

One wish I would like to see is to record using the iPhone slow motion capability. Anything happening at highway speeds would be better viewed at a slower playback - especially an accident.

Good job!

Nice app, but constantly crashing.

This is a nice dash cam app. It's much easier to use and more user friendly than most other dash cam apps available for iOS. My biggest complaint is that it crashes constantly, and the video is choppy and doesn't always record the entire segment that should have been saved. Lots of potential though...looking forward to an update.

Best car dash cam app out there

Thank you for all your hard work! I tried almost all the available car dash cam apps out there and I can confidentially say this is the best one. Super simple to use, does exactly what it needs too.

Also this app is well supported, I emailed the developer with a question and he responded right away.
