Dashcam Viewer

ask user to change the rating

*UPDATED* Pretty sad company that takes 3 months to respond then just cuts and pastes their reply to other reviews when not applicable to the review... If their App only rates less than two stars, what does this tell you about this company? They’re one of the most expensive dash cam makers yet their ability to keep up with technology is lacking and almost absent. Their App only works on iOS 13 if you enable location services to be on all the time, even when not using the app which poses privacy issues. The ability to connect to the device using the App through their dash cam WiFi on iPhone involved enabling location to ‘Always’ after the recent iOS update. Are you unable to offer a fix that doesn't track my location 24/7? Do your research on Thinkware’s devices before you make a big purchase during the holidays or you or the recipient may be disappointed.

It’s a very unstable app. One wrong move and the app will crash and will give you a hard time reconnecting to the cam. If you’re lucky enough to get to the cam settings in the app without it crashing on you, it won’t let you save any changes you make. I bought the F800 model and the website says it has the ability to record time lapse videos to save memory space, but the app or PC software doesn’t say anything about any time lapse settings.. So far I’m stuck with factory settings on this camera but other than that it works perfectly and I’m liking it. I do recommend the camera itself as far as quality but I won’t recommend the app too much. The only useful part of this app is the ability to download clips from the camera straight to your phone.

I love how easy and intuitive this app is to use. Another reviewer complained that the cam always beeps and records an event every time he hits a bump; well under settings with the app all you need to do is change the sensitivity to the lowest setting. It works for even a bouncy 18 wheeler, I know! The app has been stable for me, not sure why another reviewer was saying it crashes. I have easily reviewed my videos and have downloaded them to my phone without problem. It’s so easy that I will download videos all the time. My last dash cam didn’t have WiFi and this really does make all the difference. The dash cam itself (I have the XW10) is very high quality. The lens is large enough that even at night enough light is gathered for a decent recording. And the video is very sharp and clear, much more so than my old Cobra. But using this app along with the WiFi and my iPhone is what really makes this dash cam a pleasure to use. ~SnoopCat~

I agree with the other poster. This app is a complete POS. I bought a F800 today, downloaded the app, and many times the app crashed and needed to be force closed then reopened. Furthermore, there were multiple times where it would stop responding and would need to be force closed and reopened. Unfortunately, each time the app is force closed and reopened, the F800 requires that it lose power before being able to reconnect to my iPhone 7 and being able to do anything via the app. Everything about this app is a giant POS, and I’ve yet been able to watch any dash cam video even though the F800 says it’s recording and the micro sd card has been put it. Very disappointed in this app and the F800 so far.

I can connect to the WiFi, open this app, but if I go into any menu the app crashes and disconnects from the device. If I reopen the app it DOES NOT RECONNECT. Then I am unable to reconnect to the device, so I have to turn off and on the dashcam, open the app, and then try to do anything before the app crashes. Also how is the app SO UGLY? What resolution is this? Why is the screen flashing when you scroll? Seriously, please fire whoever created this app. Looks like I’m returning this dashcam and telling people not to use it.
