Features & Capabilities

Dashkam turns your Android phone into a reliable, battery-efficient dashcam — no extra hardware required. Mount your phone in your vehicle, tap Start, and Dashkam records continuously while you drive.

KEY FEATURES

• Continuous loop recording — segments of 1, 3, or 5 minutes; oldest unlocked clips are overwritten automatically so you never run out of space.

• Background recording — keeps recording when you minimize the app, switch to navigation, or take a phone call. A persistent notification shows recording status.

• Picture-in-picture preview — press Home during recording and a small preview window stays visible on screen so you can monitor the camera while using other apps.

• Emergency clip lock — tap once to protect the current clip. Locked clips are excluded from loop overwrite and stored separately so you never lose important footage.

• Built-in playback gallery — review, scrub, share, lock, and delete clips from inside the app.

• Configurable quality — 480p or 720p capture, 24 or 30 fps. Pick what suits your storage and battery budget.

• Smart storage — choose a 5 or 10 GB quota. Dashkam shows you how many hours of recording fit at the current quality.

• Thermal protection — automatic screen dimming when the device heats up to keep recording stable on long drives.

• Crash-safe recording — fragmented MP4 means a partial clip stays playable even if the app or device is killed mid-recording.

• Local-only storage — clips never leave your device. Optional Google Sign-In is for future cloud features only.

REQUIREMENTS

• Android 9 or newer (Android 11+ recommended).
• Phone mount and a charging source recommended for long drives.
• Permissions: camera (always), microphone (only if you enable audio), notifications, foreground service.

PRIVACY

All recordings stay on your device. Dashkam does not upload your video, audio, or location. Crash and usage analytics are opt-in and never include media content. See our privacy policy at https://gleega.com/dashkam/privacy for details.
