Thank you for this very nice review. I have been enjoying using this Ucam app especially after the new updates that have fixed several of the bugs (and made easier to connect). I mostly use it when I need to back up from a parking spot to see the rear view cam on a bigger screen than the little dash cam screen. My question though: when I tried parking mode in Gsensor setting, the cam would record for only 7 seconds! This is not sufficient especially if you are a victim of a hit and run. Is there a way to change the length of record times? My other cam would recored for 5 min if G sensor is triggered while parked. Also - I wish they allow us to remove these warning messages (e.g. recording must be turned off to view videos etc and the other one: you may want to download the video etc). They delay our access to view footage!
@AlexAutoFun2 жыл бұрын
You're welcome Nasri! ah yes I noticed that too recently, the parking mode only records a maximum of 10 seconds of video before turning back off. Currently there is no way to change this duration but yeah I have seen other dash cams that will record longer when triggered. The only thing I can think of is to switch it to time lapse mode but that works completely different that the G-Sensor Park Mode. Regarding the warning messages, I don't know if we will see them change that or not since UCam is common Wifi App used by several dash cams, It would be neat to see RedTiger develop their own with customization (but cost would increase) I'll keep an eye out for either one and if something changes in the future I will try to give you a heads up Bud. Hope this helps, Cheers!

What are the deference between F7N 4K vs F7NP....?. Is there any quality deference....?.
@AlexAutoFun Жыл бұрын
Hi Nightrider6977 Malayali driver! They are the same model, the only difference is that the F7NP includes a memory card. And remember I put the discount code in the video description in case you need it. Hope this helps, Cheers!

How do you turn on continuous recording??
@AlexAutoFun2 жыл бұрын
Hi Jerry! By continuous recording do you mean how to turn off loop recording? (the dash cam records continuously using loop recording)

does anyone know if on the dash cam itself can you be viewing the rear camera in full screen?
@AlexAutoFun Жыл бұрын
Hi Michael! Correct, you can have the dash cam display the rear view in full screen, you can see that on my previous video here kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWjUhoV6m9SFbcU Hope this helps, Cheers!
