Install pain, great cam though
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.The camera itself is great, the software is simple and works. But know before buying how you are going to power it, what you want out of it, and plan ahead. If you are keeping it simple with just the cam and the cig outlet power your good to go, but if you want to take advantage of the other features be prepared to pony up a lot more and deal with some pain's and hidden costs. If you have a larger, longer vehicle or a hatch back and want rear camera you will need to buy another cable, if you want parking monitor you will need to buy the wire kit and battery.

Excellent DashCam
||Posted .Owned for 3 months when reviewed.Great features, and excellent image quality, I recommend buying the OBD-II (OBD-2) cable with this camera is a lot easier to install. The only negative is that I wish they release a firmware update to make it easier to find the videos

Very capable dash camera
||Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.I installed this dash cam with the hard wiring kit (purchased separately) over the course of one day. Plan your work in advance and learn how to remove trim pieces for a clean and professional install. The camera itself is very easy to set up and the height-adjustable lens is a nice touch for easy leveling. It connected right up and I was able to set my recording options and then get out onto the road. The daytime recording is high quality and clear. Don't expect miracles with reading license plates although it does a pretty good job of that. I like that I have the option to add the radar unit and rear camera separately if I choose in the future. I am still playing with the night mode settings as lighted street signs get washed out, but cars show up clearly. I used it in the rain and also had a nice, clear picture. There are cheaper cameras out there, but this one is feature-filled, high quality, and easy to use. It does not disappoint.

Q: QuestionHi! Does this record full drives, or does it only record short clips during a drive? Also, will this interfere with a BMW rain sensing windshield? Thanks!
Asked by ChuckJ.
- A:Answer Hello CJ, The U1000 camera records continuously in 1 Minute increments, there should be no interference in regards to the rain sensor! Thank you.
Answered by Thinkware Product Expert
Q: QuestionWill this dash cam work in a BMW that has wireless AppleCarPlay? CarPlay also uses wifi so I'm concerned that it would be and either / or situation.
Asked by ChuckJ.
- A:Answer Hello CJ, The CarPlay won't interfere with the dashcams recording, however when connecting via wifi to the app, you will have to disconnect from CarPlay as your phone can only hold 1 Wifi connection at a time. You can disconnect from CarPlay and connect to the app, once you have finished with viewing the footage and settings, you can disconnect from the thinkware app and reconnect to your Wifi with no issue! Thank you.
Answered by Thinkware Product Expert
Q: QuestionIf I needed to access/review the video footage on-scene in case of an incident, can I connect to it if I have no cell or internet signal?
Asked by Connectivity.
- A:Answer Yes, as the Dash Cam provides its own Wi-Fi signal, similar to a Bluetooth connection. As long as you are within range of the Dash Cam's signal, you will be able to connect.
