Pros and cons of BlackVue app for iPhone and iPad

BlackVue app good for

By default I have wi-fi router in my car 1) It is not good for my health drives every day with ON wifi Please !!! Add possibility to turn off wifi by default
Your App in my iPhone is in Russian language. Pls tell me how inside the App to change Russian in to one of the other supported languages. Best regards S. Incontro
Great for iOS users. Used this app to download video of a collision and show it to police at the scene, they were very impressed.
19Jul2016: (update). Updated to v2.021. Spent about an hour utilizing the app and camera. Basically noticed no major difference from the 2.0 functions (might be slightly more efficient ??). Based on what I noticed, I would recommend the update to 2.021 version. App and camera continue to be stable. I have not used advanced functions like hotspot or cloud usage. All other items tested. App solid, for now, will keep as 4 Stars, because I think there are items of improvement, but I would recommend both the camera and app to anyone looking for a solid dash cam system. For the app, I would discount any reviews prior to June 2016. The app has radically changed, those reviews were spot on (see my 2015 comments) but are really no longer applicable. Would love to hear any other users who are using the current app (not just complaints and bashing the company). Are you out there?? 01Jul2016: (update). Have now had the chance to run camera and app for 3 weeks traveling cross country. It connects well, video is good. Able to transfer video from camera to phone to Dropbox. Im still using the 2.00 version (concerned about upgrading because this is the first time the app is stable and no other reviews yet on v2.02). Since the app completes everything I need it too, and everything seems to work, have upgraded to 4 stars, and for the first time, I would now recommend this app/camera set. Long time in the making, but think they are getting close. 01Jun2016: (update) app is trending in the right direction. I can connect to the camera. Firmware update was possible this time around (though not exactly easy...basic guideline, if youre thinking firmware update, start off with formatting the card, once done with the update format again). Suppose you could use a different card, I didnt. I upgraded from 2 stars up to 3. Optimistic that the company has started to get things fixed. Long time getting there. (This review current as of v2.00, have not installed the 2.011 version yet. 15Dec2015: I can connect to the camera. Can review the files. Cant get the time to sync (says its successful) but doesnt actually change the time. I suppose this could be a bug with the timezone selection where maybe the selected timezone doesnt actually apply the zone correction. About the only real positive feelings I have about the app is it has had a few updates. At one point, thought the company was closing shop since they started to completely ignore the other apps. Still havent decided if Im gonna keep the camera. Pretty expensive for a camera with poor customer support.

Some bad moments

Some how after update to firmware 2.00 and with BlackVue apps 1.01 cant play today video until next day, the date on the BlackVue device is 1 day ahead, try time sync and it doesnt work, try changing time zone... The device still 1 day ahead.. Please fix the bug...
After changing to 2.1 from 1.2 I can not make changes to camera internal settings
If you sell a good equipment, try to develop a good software for it. ... When I use your crappy software with 650 wifi it doesnt recognize that I use the camera upside down (which can be the case by a lot of drivers. Plus when I turn my phone horizontally, your software uses the half of the screen only. Why??????? Please fix it, or I will get other cameras for my 20+ vehicles.
Awful!!! So bad I am taking the camera back and going with a different one. Nothing works! Did Stevie Wonder create this bs? Jesus
As the other reviewers have stated, this app is a candidate for the worst app of the year. It makes the WiFi/Internet capability of the dash cam unusable. Ive just returned mine for a refund.
In this version, they took the "moving map" out of the app when you download a video to your device. It was in the previous version, without signing up for the "Cloud" servcie. I do not want my car to be uploading anything to the cloud, without going thru me first, but I do want my GPS and Map to be on the app when I watch a video, like it was before. Until that function gets restored, DO NOT UPGRADE YOUR APP OR FIRMWARE.
