"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."


"to use the app on your phone, you need to connect with WiFi and turn the CarPlay off on your phone or otherwise it keeps getting disconnected."

I recently went through this. I didn’t care about cost. I just wanted something good. I ended up going with the REDTIGER F7N touch from amazon. It wasn’t very expensive. I think $120-$150. It’s just what kept popping up on Amazon as the most advertised, recommended, most reviews. I’ve had it for a couple months, and it’s worked fine. I don’t have any complaints. There is an optional hardwire kit to hardwire it to your fuse box for recording when parked. I will point out that there is an F7N and an F7N Touch. The touch is touchscreen. I’ve never used the touchscreen. I look at the video clips on the Phone app.

Got the same camera and I agree. Works great! Never had a problem with it. I didn’t get the hardwire kit I just drilled a hole in my middle console to hide the charging cable.

Went with the Redtiger F7N on Amazon. They do have a version that offers the rear cam too! Found it on a bit of a sale and swooped given I only got my vehicle a few weeks back. The resolution is good not great, but an improvement over my previous dash cam. Biggest thing I was looking for in this dash cam purchase (other than a slight improvement in resolution) was a suction cup mount. So it was between the Redtiger and the Rove R2 4k Pro. I have it mounted central on the windshield and honestly just have the wire dangling down to connect to the glove box 12v - I don't mind at all and does not obstruct the passenger at all. It's maybe ~12in of wire hanging down. Sorry can't offer much advice on how the process of going through the headliner will be for the rest cam.

Yes. I've had one for well over a decade now because if you were to get into an accident, it's a whole lot of finger pointing and people lie to avoid tickets or getting a larger insurance bill. A dash cam can save a lot of frustration because you have indisputable video evidence that you can provide law enforcement and insurance companies. I will say never buy a cheap one. Always make the investment. I have a Redtiger F7N. It has GPS, a rear camera, and it's typically around $100 with a coupon on Amazon.

I used to have a Blackvue in a previous vehicle and it was a perfectly fine dash cam, bought one for a friend to put in his F-150 and he likes it too. I got rid of it when I started doing more low light driving because it was hard to read the plates without sunlight. I have a REDTIGER F7N now and that one captures beautifully at night, I ordered it from Amazon for $130 or $140 and it comes with a front and rear camera. I’d purchase the hard wire kit too so you don’t have to look at the power wire plugged into your cigarette lighter.

How long have you seen the parking mode run on that model? e.g. Clearly overnight, but what about over the weekend if you didn't need to take the car out? I have the RedTiger F7N, and the parking mode only allows itself to run 24 hours, in addition to the hard-wire harness having voltage protection which will cut off if the battery drops too low. Both aspects seem really keen that "we can't remain in parking mode indefinitely without draining the battery", and I was wondering about anyone else's experience with parking mode on other cameras, and what kind of runtimes have been observed.

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

I have the Viofo A229 Pro 4k (too big), the Red Tiger 4k (it died 5 months in), the Vantrue N3 (died after 10 months), and I bought a Street Guardian - very similar to the Viofo. It lasted the longest but it's too big for the windshield. Most of the above beep or talk way too much (RedTiger model chatters way too much), not to mention two of them died within a year. All were hard-wired. I'm going to try the Garmin because I don't want a screen but I've heard the resolution isn't great compared to some others. It shouldn't be this hard to find a dashcam with no screen, high resolution (front and rear) and a product that lasts longer than 10 months.

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.

Personally I've been using the Redtiger 4K Dash Cam from Amazon. It's been great for me and actually useful when someone rear ended my truck earlier this year. It has a front and rear camera. I loaded it with a SanDisk 256 GB Extreme microSD and no issues. Suits my needs. I'm weird where I like to be able to see it visually recording. I had one previously that only connect via WIFI to my phone with no screen.

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.

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.
