Explanation of the video topic

A securely mounted Android phone records local driving video with goGPS Drive. Enable GPS to review your route later. Local video and GPS recording need no mobile data.

Dual-camera support depends on the phone. Check power, temperature and free space during long sessions. Do not interact with the phone while driving.

Detailed setup guide

  1. Mount the phone without blocking your view and grant camera and location permissions.
  2. Prepare quality, GPS and storage settings before driving.
  3. Optionally configure Bluetooth startup and test it while parked.
  4. After driving, open videos and routes in Recordings. Share or back up the files you need.
