It leads to a much more accurate measure of where you were on the road at any given time, so it could come in handy if you have to prove your innocence should an insurance claim be made against you, for example. Initially we used a Huawei P30 Pro to test the MyNextbase app, but having failed to get Alexa working several times we contacted Nextbase about it and were told that the aggressive power saving measures of the phone meant it wouldn’t work. The better your problem and question is described, the easier it is for other Nextbase owners to provide you with a good answer. All slightly confusing, but more importantly the new app is much better for reviewing video directly from the dash cam. It has been completely re-designed to provide a fresh new look and feel, for enhanced user experience.

Overall, the Nextbase 412GW is a reliable and feature-rich dashcam that provides high-quality recording capabilities, wireless connectivity, and convenient features for ease of use. The internal hardware and software are where you’ll find the major differences as it’s the first in the series that features WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS connectivity, that’s where the GW comes from.If the power source is functioning correctly, try pressing and holding the power button on the dashcam for a few seconds to see if it turns on. By comparison, the 222 dashcam requires you to take out the SD card and insert it into a laptop or PC.

The 422GW is noticeably smaller than the 412GW it replaces, being considerably narrower, but there’s still a good-sized screen. Additionally, the dashcam's built-in Wi-Fi feature allows for easy access to the Nextbase app, which provides additional functionality and features. It’s disappointing that the files are listed as they appear on the SD card, so there’s no way to play back front and rear cameras simultaneously, and it doesn’t filter out the low-res clips which are only intended for playback in the mobile app. If you need to keep footage, you can manually save it or the built in G-sensor can detect crashes and protect footage for you.You can’t download a clip to your phone when viewing: you have to go back to the list of videos, tap a hamburger-style icon which puts it into select mode. You can change to 1080p60, but it won’t auto switch to 30fps at night for a brighter image, so isn’t recommended. Our Developers are always working to improve the functionality of our cameras and provide new features, such as different languages. I can't find any reference to this in the documentation, does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong? The 522GW takes another slight step up in size which allows it to have a 3” touch screen instead of the 2.
