HOW TO USE NORMAL MODE 1.Preparation Place your smartphone in the direction of the car's movement (it can be upright for better visibility). The most important thing is to choose a location with minimal vibration. It is recommended to place it on a stable surface like the floor or center console. (The dashboard or smartphone stand is not recommended due to high vibration.) 2.Level Set Park the car on a level surface and press the [Calibrate] button to record the level position. 3.Driving & Recording Once preparation and level set are complete, press the [Start Driving] button to begin driving. After finishing the drive, press the [Stop] button to save the data. 4.Log List Press the [Log List] button at the top right of the screen to display a list of saved driving logs.

You can touch the graph to play/pause, and pinch/drag to change the scale. Important: If the graph appears jagged even when driving on a smooth paved road, it means your smartphone is picking up vibrations from the car. Please place your smartphone in a stable location to capture a clean graph. (You can also adjust the "Noise Filter Level" from the [Settings].) SETTINGS Press the [Settings] button in the App to open the settings screen. There are over 50 settings available.
