## Description

Smart Dash Cam turns your phone into a full-featured car video recorder with auto-loop recording and collision detection. It supports manual and auto modes, multiple resolutions, audio options, on-video overlays (time, speed, map), and a silent witness for every drive.

Features include long loop duration up to 60 minutes, storage controls (max capacity or use all available space), cloud uploads to Google Drive, Dropbox, Box Drive, sharing via email, and YouTube uploads. Available in English, French, German, and Spanish.

## Review summary

Users praise Smart Dash Cam for a feature-rich experience, clear footage, iCloud GPS, and easy sharing. They report strong developer responsiveness and stability improvements in updates. However, repeated issues include crashes and random shutdowns, ads at the bottom that distract and hinder reading license plates, and the need to keep the app open for recording (no true background recording). Some users also report CarPlay interference and device overheating. While updates help, several critical bugs and usability blockers persist, limiting reliability for long drives.

### Pros

- Feature-rich dash cam with clear recording.
- Responsive developers and stability improvements in updates.
- Auto-record on startup and convenient one-button operation.
- Easy sharing of footage (AirDrop) and iCloud-based GPS without a SIM.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes, random shutdowns, and general instability.
- Intrusive ads at the bottom that distract and obscure license plates.
- Cannot run in the background; recording stops when switching apps or during calls.
- CarPlay interference and audio disruption when the app is active.
- Device overheating / excessive battery drain while using the app.
