User Reviews

Overall, reviewers note that the Rand McNally dash cam hardware can produce decent video, and the camera itself can work well. However, the iPhone app is unreliable: it often fails to connect to the dash cam, freezes, crashes, and won’t reliably display, save, or share videos. Many reports describe persistent iOS compatibility issues, delayed or absent app updates, and bugs like incorrect time zones or geolocation. As a result, the product is seen as unreliable for professional use, with hardware quality not offset by app software problems.

Pros

The camera works and is a pretty decent quality.
The camera itself works pretty well as far as I can tell.
The camera is fairly nice.

Cons

Unreliable connectivity between the dash cam and the iPhone app (frequent connection failures).
App freezes, crashes, or fails to download/view videos.
Persistent iOS compatibility issues and lack of timely app updates.
Time zone/geolocation bugs and other UI issues like difficult navigation (e.g., Hawaii time issue).
Difficult to share/export videos from the app; may require transferring to a computer.

Recent reviews

The camera 500 needs an update… the dates only go up to 2025.

Did the same as another reviewer did. Can’t get it to connect and maybe it will or maybe it won’t while you least expect it. No longer giving updates patches to fix these problems. Stay away from these RM 500 dash cams.
