Dashward turns your iPhone into a dependable dash cam that just works — mount it, plug in power, and drive. RECORD EVERYTHING • Continuous loop recording on the rear and/or front camera, saved as separate files. • Record both cameras at the same time — free — to capture the road and the cabin together. • Up to 4K · 60fps on a single camera (Pro); crisp 1080p on each when recording both. • Every clip is stamped with your GPS location. REPLAY WITH THE FULL PICTURE • Tap any clip to replay it with a live map that follows your route as the video plays. • See your speed and a real-time G-force meter for braking, cornering, and bumps. NEVER RUN OUT OF SPACE • Dashward records into short segments and automatically deletes the oldest when your storage limit is reached — so it can record for your whole drive without you ever managing files. • Set your own storage limit. Lock important clips so they're never deleted. • Keep clips in the app, or save the important ones to Apple Photos. PARKING SENTRY (Dashward Pro) • Leave Dashward watching while you're parked. If it detects movement or an impact, it saves and locks a clip and alerts you. • See exactly what happened while you were away. BUILT FOR LONG DRIVES • Keeps the screen awake so it records the entire trip. • Dim the screen independently from your iOS brightness to save power and reduce heat — or boost it for bright daylight. • Thermal protection: Dashward watches your phone's temperature, warns you, and can automatically lower the frame rate or resolution to keep recording safely. Tip: keep your phone in shade or near an air vent. • Show the rear feed, the front feed, or both at once. FREE & PRO Dashward is free to use — including front + rear recording at the same time, the GPS route map, and the G-force meter (ad-supported). Dashward Pro adds up to 4K/60fps, the parking sentry, cross-device alerts, Apple Photos backup, and removes ads. Dashward Pro is an auto-renewing subscription (monthly or yearly) with a 3-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple Account; it renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings.
