"Red tiger has the same issue. You can be connected to one WiFi connection at a time and since CarPlay connects Bluetooth and WiFi, if you connect to the camera, you disconnect from CarPlay. Then the Bluetooth kicks you back onto CarPlay again, booting you out of the camera. Basically you can only access the camera data by disabling Bluetooth and then disconnecting CarPlay to connect to the camera."

Bought Redtiger F17 Elite last month which had all three cams. Works fine for me and the video quality was also good. My suggestion was to better go for dual cam. If its for taxi, go for triple cam.

Till date, I haven’t check the night video quality. Will check today and update. Coming to value point. If money is not a problem. you go for F17 elite which I bought on Amazon sales for 23.5k . In my opinion, for a personal use car there is no need for internal cam. ( I’m also wondering why I got interior camera) you can get dual channel cam for 10k to 20k. Installation was super simple. If you know about cars, you can do this your self or you go for mechanics. You can negotiate and get it done under 300.

I have the RedTiger F17 Elite on my car. It’s a 3 Chanel Dash Cam - records audio and video from the front, back, AND inside of the car. Front is in 4K, back is in 2K (1440 P), and interior is 1080P. It was only 225 when I purchased it on Amazon. Also comes with voice control features.

I bought a redtiger f17 with the hardwire kit for a bit less than $100 from eBay. Had three cameras (front, inside, and rear), records while parked (time-lapse, or after a bump is detected), and won't drain the battery to zero because it has a low voltage cut-off. I tucked in all the wires, so the only part visible is where it goes to the camera.

That's good one too. I personally have and "biased" but I recommend the REDTIGER F17 4K 3 channel dash cam. Also you can get the F7N dash cam by REDTIGER. Both are incredible and has an app and easy UI. the one thing I'd recommended if you get them is instead of using the sticky mount that comes with it for the front camera order the suction cup mount instead. Also it's sold by REDTIGER. Price points all of 120$-200$ and sales all the time on Amazon

I’d also highly recommend the redtiger rear and front dash cam on Amazon, on sale for 85$ I believe, the customer service is rlly good and they sent me free replacement adhesive cuz I fucked up the first one as well as a longer usb c cable and a hardwire kit when I decided to go in that direction. I downloaded the vids and they were both really clear and I can make out license plate easily. Not affiliated but just thought the product was good, I installed one in my dad’s car as well.

I bought red tiger dash cam off of, you guessed it, Amazon. One for my car, my wife's and my stepdaughter. All of those have front and rear. I bought a red tiger front cam only for my jeep. No where to stick a rear camera on the soft top. The front and rear ones were around 130, the front only was 80. Have zero complaints

Last September I did lots of research to find a good dash cam and I settled on a Red Tiger 4K on Amazon. At the time I paid ~$177 AUD. It’s both front and rear. Good quality image. Easy to install and has an app for phone too. Haven’t had to use any footage for any reason but did downloaded a few and they seem to have come through well. https://amzn.asia/d/dPbPcje

Low $100 should do the job. ROVE R2-4K Pro or REDTIGER 4K. I have both on different cars. Clear pics. On my ID4, I used Fuse #52. This is the rear trunk cigarette lighter power. Internet pic shows this #52 as one long Fuse, but it is not. It has two setup option, connect to the upper slot of #52, you will get power only when the car is On. I chose the upper slot setup. Lower slot of #52, then power is always On. YouTube has severals clips that show how to run and hide the cable. Be careful with the rectangular panel next to the door. You have to slide it to the side before pull out so you don't break it. One YouTube guy shows this briefly. It took 30-45 minutes to install front dashcam. I don't install the rear.

Got the RedTiger one in 2023. No major complaints. Video quality good, day and night. Get a polarising lens if you want, I didn't notice too much difference. Minor complaints: 1. The front cam can sometimes fall off if it's too hot outside 2. WiFi file transfer is way too slow. You can watch clips on your phone, but you probably won't have the patience to download 2 or 3 Also as others pointed out, unless you can figure it out yourself, it's about another $150-200 to hard wire it.

I got a red tiger and it’s fine. It’s not just dash cams though, building CCTV will do a lot more for you than just a dashcam if you park in the same place all the time and establish patterns in how and where you park. I could prove to the day when and how I was hit with a building cam, dashcam didn’t have footage back far enough.

They are in fact relatively cheap, but they are no way garbage. I run them in everything. Front and rear cams. And I keep a spare around just in case. The only one that failed on me was in my side by side UTV and it shit the bed only after being hit with the pressure washer for like the 20th time. I would never have even thought about using a dash cam until I worked in South Korea. Basically in South Korea, if you can’t show the police who caused the accident, then it’s a “no fault” accident. Also, the old dash cam is pretty handy if a cop pulls you over. Kind of a nice feeling when the cop realizes that anything he or she says may be used against them in a court of law.

The app is ok, I did find my phone switching from the cam’s WiFi back to my trucks and losing connection. It’s honestly easier to just pull the SD card and put in your computer and pull the footage. It records in 5 minute clips with no loss in between clips. We put 256gb cards in ours and they record 3-4 days worth before it writes over the older footage.

Skoda/vw cars don't need a hardwire kit. You can plugin any dashcam and it stays on 24/7 unless you plug out connector from 12V socket. I own a kushaq and use redtiger dashcam and I only plug out the dashcam whenever I don't need to use the car for more than 2 days.

This is common for all dash cam apps. Red tiger has the same issue. You can be connected to one WiFi connection at a time and since CarPlay connects Bluetooth and WiFi, if you connect to the camera, you disconnect from CarPlay. Then the Bluetooth kicks you back onto CarPlay again, booting you out of the camera. Basically you can only access the camera data by disabling Bluetooth and then disconnecting CarPlay to connect to the camera.

Looks very similar to RedTiger. Is it a dual dashcam or just the front one? Get dual dashcams. Front + rear. Sony Starvis sensor is better for night time clarity. Having GPS is a plus. Unless you want parking monitoring, hardwiring is unnecessary. If you have always on 12A socket then even that is unnecessary. You can easily install it yourself or get any accessories shop to install it for you and attach it to USB/12A socket.
