Thx

Have you been happy with the night videos and reading license plates? Do you think the inside camera is more for those that drive for Uber or Lyft or do you find that is worth it. Also if you get a new car, I wonder what you can do with the window bracket. Shame it does not you a suction connection.

Happy but could be better. I have to zoom in when vehicles are moving fast. frame rate is at 30FPS. The inside camera is awesome. Well worth it. Not sure about a window bracket. It might work i just haven't tried or thught about it.

@@AutoSensation thanks! Trying to figure out what dash cam to go with.

I have the V2 OMBAR dashcam which doesn't include the camera for inside the car, but overall it's the same. I have front and rear cameras. I am bit confused about how to get the video clips. when I start the car, the camera powers up and I can see recording start with the red dot blinking. Do I need to connect to WIFI via the Oncam App each time the camera turns on, or do I only use Oncam App to see live view or to download video clips. If I should use OCAM APP each time I am driving, is there a way to turn on WIFI automatically each time the camera powers up?

Yes. to see live view on your app you need to connect to wifi each time. I think if you set your phone to remember and to connect auto when wifi if located you should be able to.

Just curious, what is the purpose of the electrostatic film? does it reduce glare or other light filter ? Seems like it would be easier for the camera to fall off, if not attached directly to the glass. Also, when I installed my rear camera, I installed it upside down. Did I miss the "up" locator?

Just to attach to the front windshield of your vehicle by static electricity with no damage to the surface or residual marks. I also don't see a locator that shows which side is up. It would be nice if there was a setting to flip the view.

​@AutoSensation ok....in my experience I've never seen a foam adhesive pad damage a glass windshield. If the foam/adhesive sticks to the glass, just scrape it off with a razor and clean with glass cleaner. But I know, that's what the directions say that the electrostatic film is for. Thanks for the video!

I think it's more protection if you have tint. Yes using a razor blade works great I use to do that. I review lots of dash cams and for me using an electrostatic film is just easier. For others that are looking for a more permanent solution, placing directly on the windshield would be the way to go. @@nectros7157

I did the very same thing - installed it upside down. Took me a while to figure out what was wrong 🙄

I have one, it only records in my driveway when I'm connected to the wifi. It doesn't save the footage from when I'm driving around.

Hmmm. Did you check the memory card if the files are in there?

Do I need to have an iPhone to see my saved videos or to install the wifi? I'm trying to install the SD card on my phone but it's too big. I have an android. The wifi won't connect to my phone no matter what I do.

To view on your phone you need wifi. Does not need to be an Iphone android works too. The SD card installs on the camera

What happens if nothing happens when it turns on? The screen only has the picture of the car and the menu doesn’t come up.

I just got this...but i bought the version that has the front and cabin, as my car allows me to view its rear camera at anytime. However, my questions is, does it make sense to get the one that has the rear camera if your rear windows are tinted really dark(5%)? I feel like it's not going to give me the best view, thus making it useless for me.

@AutoSensation

If your tint is really dark. I would not get a rear camera to use inside.

I'm having trouble with the app. I can connect it to the camera's wifi for an instant, but then my car's wifi takes over. I don't want to "forget" my car's wifi - so am I stuck not being able to see the live cam view?

I was gonna say forget your car's wifi. I'm not sure if this will work but what if you forget all the wifi connections. Then connect your phones wifi first then your car's. My thinking is that it will prioritize your phones wifi over the car. Just a thought.
