Need update

The camera 500 needs an update… the dates only go up to 2025.

Absolute Junk

Did the same as another reviewer did. Can’t get it to connect and maybe it will or maybe it won’t while you least expect it. No longer giving updates patches to fix these problems. Stay away from these RM 500 dash cams.

Dash Cam 500

Very unsatisfied now with this model dash cam. I have 2 of these and bought another one a few years back cause the mount wouldn’t allow charging so plugged right in to the cam itself. Well this was my first and bought one during this dilemma and put up for a reserve. Then the first one wouldn’t connect to my Wi-Fi on my iPhone. I thought the dash cam was toast cause of this. Got my other one out and hooked it up. And again won’t connect to my phone. I’ve tried resetting my phone, unplugging the camera to restart camera and last ditch effort was turning off Wi-Fi on camera and phone then back on. Maybe it will connect or maybe not. I’ve tried to look for updates as the app no longer has this feature and even removed the app and Reinstalled it. You may get it to connect while sleeping but very slim to none……. While I am here can anyone tell me about the garmin dash cams or any other brands? At this point as a truck driver it is very unreliable and don’t have confidence as I once did when I initially purchased the first one. Wow just think if a wreck happened and at no fault of mine and low and behold I can’t prove it because I can’t pull any videos in my defense. I gave it a one star only because I had too. If you find one of these still in new old stock at the truck stops DO NOT PURCHASE THIS BRAND AND MODEL.

Rand McNally Dashcam 500

The camera works and is a pretty decent quality. Unfortunately when you use your device (I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max) the videos won’t play on it. Once you try to access the videos off of your device the camera freezes up and the iPhone says no videos to view. However once you restart your camera, all the videos can be viewed straight off the camera. I would love to view the videos off of the camera from the device but it seems to not work at all. I have tried to uninstall the app, turn off and on the WiFi connection, and restarting the camera and the iPhone… nothing works to view the videos off of your device.
