BlackVue 12+

wouldn't recommend . App too expensive ?

Spending about £1000 on a twin camera and a battery pack . The camera does work , most the time I have no problem connecting . however it's very " power Hungary " when in parking mode . Live in the UK and we don't get that many hot days now the summer is here camera spends most of its time disconnected from the network this has nothing to do with the EE network this is because the camera is overheated in the car . Not much I could do about that unless I leave the car windows wide open during the day .
The camera is pretty useless during night time as it has no infrared so unless you live in a place where there is street lights it's a waste of time... finally I don't think but Pain £8 a month just for the app on its own is worth it .. especially now that everyone has had to change Sim cards to a different provider to as what it was a few months ago . on the brighter side of life I can confirm that the "
DR970X-2CH LTE (64 GB) UK Edition - 4G " does work perfectly well on the EE network . Much better than the Sim card which was originally provided with the camera and Vodafone which was a total nightmare .
Would I recommend this camera again . "Probably not " if I'm being honest .. the camera itself Is good , the thing that lets sit down is the LTE , THE CONNECTION TO THE INTERNET AND THE APP WHICH IS ALL PART OF THE PACKAGE ...

Works…..ish

The new app is a right pain. I have a 720S 2ch and it worked fine with the old app since the new one came out connecting it is unstable, the camera will randomly disconnect and then won’t reconnect until you power off the cameras and power it back on or delete the app and re instal it. Also paying for the “pro” version of the app is quite cheeky when the cameras themselves aren’t exactly cheap!! If you generally want to attract users to pay for the pro best get the free version working correctly and stable or to me it’s just gona be a wast of money!

Excellent cameras brought down by the app

I have the DR900S-2ch setup and it produces excellent pictures. The hardware is five star all the way. The app is not. If I do a fresh install of the app and set-up the camera WiFi connection from scratch, the app contacts the camera and works fine; once. A second attempt to contact the camera fails every time, requiring me to delete the WiFi info and the app and start from scratch again. This is why the system loses two stars. One other issue. All my other apps run sweet through the VPN I use. Not BlackVue; it complains about the connection and refuses to play ball. The app needs some quality control, bug fixes and a bit of a rethink on Internet connections but it has all of the foundations to become a really good addition to the top-draw hardware.
Update: it speaks volumes that there is not a single developer response here. I doubt the bother reading anything; hence the app falling tragically far behind the quality of the hardware.
Update: Getting videos out of the app has become an absolute dumpster fire. It used to be easy but they are obviously trying to force the user onto their clouds service.
Simple solution: DON’T BUY BLACKVUE CAMERAS.
