      Thank you for the excellent review. While we hope you never experience an accident, if one occurs, the impact will trigger Emergency Recording. This feature creates locked files that will not be overwritten by loop recording. To ensure that important footage surrounding an incident is preserved, any video clip that is locked will include adjacent footage if the incident happens within 30 seconds of the beginning or end of a clip. cedarelectronics-cobra

    DO NOT BUY VERY DISAPPOINTING

    DO NOT BUY. When it was put in my car and the tech was showing me how it works. It glitched out. The tech said It may be because of the app and we reset it. It worked for 1 week. It not longer turns on. It is hooked directly into my dash board so its supposed to turn on when the car turns on. it does not It is very misleading says it works where you can detect if the car is hit or pull up pictures of when you were driving. This only works if you can connect to it via the app. You have to turn the car on as if you are driving and connected it. This makes going to the app useless any other time. But since mine has stopped working i cannot connect to it at all

    Don't buy it. Not consistently recording video

    This is my first experience with a dash cam and it's been mediocre. First off the app takes a million minutes to connect to the device and when it does it's so slow to show images. I use an Google pixel 8 phone to connect. Not only is it slow to connect I have found that it randomly does not connect or record my trips. I had it installed at Best buy so the wires would be hidden and power is not the issue because it does record while parked but only sometimes. When I turn in the car and go for a drive I hear it start up because I turned on all the sounds but when I get in and it doesn't make a sound I try to connect so that it does boot up. And then I quit the app. But today when someone read ended me and I want that video to send to my insurance. The app is. It working. I'm so annoyed and disappointed by this product
