How to View Dash Cam Footage on Your Phone
Most modern dash cams let you skip the computer entirely and review footage on your phone over Wi-Fi. The process is quick once it is set up.
Connect over Wi-Fi
The camera creates its own Wi-Fi network that your phone joins through the companion app. This is a direct link, so you do not need mobile data or internet.
Review and save
In the app you can scrub through recent clips, play them back, and download the ones you want to keep straight to your phone.
Share when needed
Once a clip is on your phone, you can send it to your insurer or the authorities like any other video, without wrestling with an SD card reader.
