Features & Capabilities

Road Recorder turns your phone into a portable car dashcam. It records HD video of your trips with GPS position, speed, and date, and supports background recording so you can multitask. A handy widget starts recording instantly, and it warns you when memory or battery is low.

After you finish a drive, you can play back the footage with map localization, export coordinates to KML or GPX, and share files via Dropbox or email. The app is free to download with a Pro edition on Google Play, and it offers a feature-rich alternative to mid-range car cameras with thousands of users.

User Reviews

Road Recorder is praised for its reliable and stable dash cam functionality, low battery consumption, and ease of use. Users appreciate its value as an alternative to dedicated dash cam hardware. However, the app has not been updated in years, causing issues like poor focus, limited recording times, and inability to save videos to external memory. Additionally, essential features like GPS data overlay and improved video quality are missing, reducing its effectiveness for recording driving activity.

Pros

Works well as a dash cam with reliable background recording
Low battery usage and stable performance without crashes
Easy to use with useful widgets
Helps save users from traffic tickets and accidents
Offers good value compared to buying a separate dash cam device

Cons

App has not been updated for several years, leading to outdated features
Video saving is limited to phone storage, no support for memory cards
Recording stops unexpectedly or has time limits even in pro version
Focus and auto exposure features are poor, resulting in low-quality videos
Lacks options for overlaying GPS and speed data on videos

fantastic app, exactly what I needed but couldn't find anywhere. its so useful that I bought the pro. everything works flawlessly and its a great set and forget app. 1 only improvement id make is fix a bug when trying to forward the video, on the s25 ultra it seems to let me go to about half of the video and then then it doesnt let me go further, so if id want to see something later, id need to watch the whole video without skipping. im a developer too, I can help, feel free to msg me
