App needs to work
I’ve been trying to get this thing to work for two weeks one thing I found out, when you have your cellular phone, our car uses cellular service for emergency, calls, and navigation things like that, it’s using the Wi-Fi dash cam needs to use the Wi-Fi to access with the app. Can’t have two Wi-Fi at once connected to the phone you cannot access the dash cam, and your car,at the same time, dash cam still work, however you can’t access dash cam you have to forget your car Wi-Fi under your system systems. And you have to turn off your cellular data underneath the dash cam app.
I still have issues working with Kenwood to see if we can work it out. Keep you posted. Hope this helps.

Help please
I have just had my dash cam installed and I haven’t a clue how to get it to view on my phone ! I’m not the best with technology, could anyone help and let me know how I can get it on my phone please. I have the Kenwood app !! Thank you
Great overall
Have the Kenwood DVRA310W with rear camera. Only complaint is there should be a mass daily delete option instead of going to each hour or each day to pick and delete recorded videos .
This $HJT does not work
This app is freaking garbage doesn’t not work at all why spend money on a WIFI!!! Dashcam and it doesn’t have WiFi, get it together Kenwood Terrible App
Won’t playback video’s
This app is garbage! I would’ve not bought this dash cam if I knew the app was this bad . This app won’t playback video’s they just keep loading. I guess when buying a product that connects to an app that you have to do a review of the app too . Very Disappointed!
Update ! The app take’s getting used to, also someone said turn off cellular and it works.

DO NOT BUY!!!!
Have been loyal to KENWOOD since the 80’s so thought this was a good purchase. App for equipment is horrible. Have continuous issues with connecting to my IPhone regardless if I’m connected to WIFI or not. Cannot download new firmware because my phone just spins and fails to connect. Definitely have buyers remorse!

App won’t connect
I’ve had dash cam for one week. Installed originally - app and cam opened right up. Now a week later I went in to update settings and download a few of the videos. Won’t connect. Restarted dash cam, restarted phone, uninstalled and reinstalled app. Nothing seems to work. Dash cam says connected, WiFi on phone has a checkmark, but the app just sit on screen saying may take a few moments to connect.

Disgraceful
Slow, unintuitive, glitchy, ultimately useless
Not fit for purpose
The app was clearly an after thought to the hardware. Unfortunately you actually need the app to be able to set up your dash cam properly.
In the set up menu when setting the date and time the app suddenly crashes, have tried troubleshooting multiple times and using different phones to no success and the same problem.
The dash cam in question is the A700W.
I Strongly recommend you avoid Kenwood dash cams until they start caring about having a functioning app.
Doesn’t deserve one star, should be minus.

Rubbish
This app doesn’t even work says connection established then just sits there for hrs spinning can’t even use it
Fix the app
I just spent probably 15 minutes trying to load 70 seconds of 1080p 30fps footage. The app used to be mediocre but passable, now I just connect to the camera and spend 30 seconds to load 2 seconds of footage and when I pan back it needs to load it again
Shocking App
Shocking app. Very clunky. Wished Id bought another dashcam
After update still has issues
Upon the app being updated I tried adjusting a few settings on my A700W to find the app crashes when you try to adjust the date and time (important on a dash cam) So work still needs done, hopefully it’s fixed soon!
GREAT DASH CAM - TOTALLY RUBBISH APP
The dash cam indicates it is connected to the iPhone 13. On the iPhone, however, the app never gets beyond “the trying to connect” screen with its rotating image. One would have thought a company like Kenwood might invest in some decent software developers.
Horrible camera, horrible app
Camera design is horrible. App design is horrible. Camera hasn’t worked since I got it installed. And I can’t even get a KENWOOD representative on the phone. So, I’m out almost $550 for the camera + install of something that doesn’t work and has wasted so much time of my time.
Yet to work
Can’t review this app until it actually connects with the camera. Kenwood support unable to help so far.
Wow. Unusable.
Completely unusable. Dash cam connects. You can configure it, but videos DO NOT play. If you download the video you have maybe a 10% chance it will play. Otherwise it just does nothing but sit there. Pure junk.
Disappointing
Very unintuitive to set up. Very slow to do anything. Failure to connect seamlessly with the phone virtually every time without retry. Poor connection range. Not user friendly at all.
Not able to download the videos via app
I’ve got a 3rd gen iPhone SE and connected via the app successfully. I can view the recorded content but the app is not allowing me to download the videos
