Can't count on being able to show police the dashcam footage on your phone in a reasonable amount of time. You may have issues getting it to show. You will be able to get it sooner or later for the court.

So, I had the Dashcam 2 before and after a short time it would simply not work right, requiring frequent restarts to reactivate voice commands and eventually to perform basic functions. Enough, and I bought the DashCam 3. The “fool me once …” comes to mind. Garmin doesn’t work with VPN on your phone, but that can be mitigated by turning it off during the initial phase (long enough to get the connection). That applies to setup but also for live view. With that hurdle taken, it turns out that the DashCam 3 inexplicably does not have a free short-term Vault option and if you want your videos accessed via WiFi you now have to subscribe for $10/month or $100/year. Seriously? With size being the only real argument for the Garmin, I feel this is some very this ice. My next cam is unlikely to hold the name Garmin.

This camera is a great dash camera. It is very discrete and you quickly forget it is even in your vehicle. For me, this is the biggest benifit of this camera. Also the Garmin app is very easy to use and accessing your footage is done quickly.

The app isn’t the best but I could still access clips if I needed to. Only issue was after 5 months of it exsiting in the car it just stopped turning on. Tested different things to make sure it wasn’t because of the car but nothing ended up working.
