Better Off Getting a Portable SD Reader
The app can be very convenient for quick video access, but the Wi-Fi technology it uses is very slow and unstable. I’ve had my dashcam for a while, and during that time, I was thinking my SD card was corrupted or even worse, I had a defective camera. Whenever I tried to watch any recording on the app, there would be horrendous skips and glitches. However, after getting a portable SD card reader, those same videos now play perfectly fine and actually save to my phone now too. Great dashcam, awful app.

Glitchy
The app is sooooo glitchy and it’s been like this forever. They’ll probably never fix it
Amazing cam, Awful App making my mind change.
Cam connecting wifi succes but app doesnt see this. After this issue there is no sense to use this cam because how you can save videos if your app doesnt working ? No sense. I will return cam because of app.
Absolutely useless app! DO NOT BUY
The camera is great for quality purposes, however you cannot get to your videos recorded nor even when specifically saved! What a waste of a dash cam product because their app and ability to use same is bottom of the barrel.
DO NOT RECOMMEND!! Beware.
DO NOT RECOMMEND!! Beware.
Useless app
This app making me regret why i did not purchase another brand 🙂
App doesn’t work
Basically useless. App does not work. So it’s just a camera that you hang next to your favorite tree air freshener
Great video, app needs work
The quality of the video is excellent! I’ve had this camera for over 3 years and the only problem I have with it is using the app. It doesn’t always want to connect to my phone. It will say no internet connection. Rove needs to improve how the phone connects with the camera.
Great cameras, terrible app
The dash cam saved me when a u haul hit my mirror on my brand new truck. However, the app is really just from the Stone Age. Terrible to use, not very simple. You have to download the video to the app, then transfer to phone. Instead of just downloading to phone. APP NEEDS LOTS OF HELP.
App doesn’t work
Camera works fine. But it’s useless if you can’t pull videos off of it. STEAR CLEAR OF THIS APP AND CAMERA. It’s literally a waste of money
What the….
Great camera. Works very well. The app is horrible and super slow. And I think the last time it was updated was 2 years ago??? I mean if I knew the app and linking the camera to the app was such a mess. I would have never bought the thing. I would tell anyone that wants to buy a dash cam. To look into other options seeing how they either don’t care and don’t support their product. 2 years since it’s last update? LOL

Very slow and buggy
Basic app that does work too well. I’ll just stick to the microSD card to view footage
App does not connect to camera.
While the camera works, the app does not. Could not download videos to my iPhone 13 pro. Tried reinstalling app and changing camera settings. Nothing worked. Considering sending camera back.
Non functional app
Intel set up of two rove cameras to WiFi worked easily on first attempt. Today about 1 month later, neither camera will connect to phone using the WiFi. Found this malfunction after being backed into in a parking lot when trying to show the clip to the officers making the police report.
Rove customer service fixes, as attached were not able to fix the problem.
1. Uninstall the ROVE App
2. Please go to the camera's SYSTEM SETTINGS and then set the camera for the DEFAULT SETTING.
3. Now turn ON the WiFi from the camera > Then go to your Phone’s Settings > WiFi > look for ROVE wifi name > then touch the “i” button in blue all the way on the right side of the name. Now, once you touch the I button, you will get more options.
4. Now, please select the FORGET THIS WiFi or REMOVE THIS NETWORK. Once you make the wifi forget, please close all your apps completely on your Phone, restart your phone and the dash camera.
6. Re-install the App
7. Turn Off the phone's Mobile Cellular data.
8. Turn off your VPN if you have any.
9. Turn on the camera's WIFI
10. Connect to the camera's WFI
11. Open the App
I would not buy this product again.

Could be better
Reasons so far the app didn’t work/quit working. 1- Didn’t allow the app to detect all network devices during install. 2- VPN was turned on. Camera takes clear enough video during the day and at night. It’s inconvenient to remove the card from the camera and also the camera from the vehicle. So I was glad there was an app. Downloads from the camera to phone are slow. And reviewing videos from the camera are extremely lagged, not worth trying. When you download a video to your phone, you have to save it yet again to your camera roll (photos) otherwise it is stuck in the app under its own folder. At the time of review it’s been a year since they’ve updated.

Good Camera Terrible App
Camera is very good, im pleased with it so far, but the app on the other hand…sucks. It hasn’t been updated in over a year, the videos you try to watch on it are EXTREMELY laggy, not even watchable. In conclusion the camera is great and works perfectly fine as advertised, but don’t even bother downloading the app, it is totally pointless

Great quality, decent download time
I saw the reviews of this camera saying the download time was bad or disconnecting. So far I have used the records twice. Once putting the memory card into my laptop and today with the app. Took about 8 minutes for the video to download but quality remains great (Full HD, not 4K)
What ever happened to the new updated app?
I was very pleased with the quality of the Rove camera , where I decided to put them in both of my vehicles. What attracted me to this camera is if I had to show proof to a traffic officer; with the Rove WiFi capability, I was sold. However, the downloaded app stopped working. After contacting support, I was told that the technicians were working on a updated app that should be available for download in a couple of months. That was back in July and no app that works is available. This is late November. I tried the 4K stealth app and the Rove video and photo app. Nothing works. This is the second brand of camera that I purchased where support fell through. Rating your camera, it was hands up 5 star. I can’t give a good rating at this time.

Does not work with iOS 15
Don’t buy this camera thinking you can get it to work with your iPhone on iOS 15. It will

Application no longer works with rove device
Well not the type of planned obsolescence I was expecting. After many happy years with this dash cam I finally needed it for its intended purpose, to capture video of something crazy on the road. Yet when I went through the steps to connect with Wi-Fi the app will not recognize the dash cam. I am now forced to spend hundreds replacing a product that still works because the app does not. Furthermore, I can’t send the video to insurance to back up my side of things. Thanks Rove! I’m thinking a lawsuit might be in order if things don’t go well for me.

App doesn’t work
I’ve had the camera for a week now and not once have I been able to actually get the app and the camera to connect. My phone says I’m connected to the WiFi but the app just keeps saying” connect to camera WiFi and then return here” and when I do I’m still welcomed with the same irritating screen.
