I love my garmin 45 dash cam App has made it easy to share videos The only issue I am having now is all of a sudden I have started getting an export failed message on the app and it says to restart the app and dash cam if the problem persists I ve done this multiple times and still can not get my videos to export without getting this fail message                     Holly Pourhassan

it works fine with the garmin 45 dashcam my bigger complaint is about the dashcam haven t had the cam in use for four months and already it doesn t label the proper date and time there is no way to manually set the date the camera will shut down when it gets too hot hanging from your window there are never updates for the cam as the site always says system down             Simon Templar

App is good for controlling the camera which is why I gave it any stars at all App fails every export telling me to restart the camera and app I have had to break out the lap top for every video Id like to keep Very inconvenient makes me unhappy I chose the Virb to upgrade my old GoPro         A Dowgiert

This app does the job it is meant to and seems to work with my VIRB 360 and Galaxy 8 The workflow is a bit confusing and needs to be streamlined There is no way to follow a moving object within a section of the time line or clip which is something I would love to see added Editing creating a movie and sharing should not be treated as the same thing Editing on this app is a bit confusing at the moment because it is in the share section and there is no way to set a specific point in the 360 video you want the camera to move to and focus on You can move the video towards the direction you want but it would be better if you could select an exact point in the shot you want the viewer to be centred on The app is useful for previewing the footage on the camera but the video quality in the preview playback is not very good There are only a few things on this app that I believe need to be fixed to make it so much better Overall this is a good companion for the VIRB 360 camera but not anywhere near as good as it could be                 Geoff Currey

Garbage does not allow export of video from dashcam 55 fails 100 of the time Extremely clunky interface and wants lots of OS permissions Trying to use on a pixel 3 newest patched android Really making me rethink my dashcam pirchase with already extremely sketch reliability and useability reviews     Steve Kissel

I hate to pile on but this app is unusable Edtablishing a connection between camera and phone is hit or miss and when it does connect playing videos and viewing photos takes forever to load if they load at all Disappointing     joshsmash79

has an issue with exporting the audio when i play the video saved to my phone a short 1 4 second if audio is at the very begining but the rest is quiet If the camera is left on for 5 hours i have much difficulty cutting the section i need out of the video since the controls are too sensitive at that length         Legend Cox

Video saved onto the phone through the app is of lower quality than the files on the microSD card and it takes forever to share There s really no reason for me to use this app I ll just copy the files I want from the microSD card myself as it s faster and of better quality     catsspat

Rubbish only works for live viewing video replay is shocking pull your finger out Garmin     Eddie Crean

Dash Cam 55W Review Pass You can download your videos I was unable to view them as it stated my phone needed to be updated The connection method is a mess requiring you to go through multiple steps on your Dash Cam and the app just to connect Also there is no live feed and the Dash Cam is put to sleep while you use the app and you must disconnect from the Dash Cam and not the app Which even for a passenger it s not practical Makes me believe it was never intended for Dash Cams             Peter Franzke

Garbage Can t download with sound and the file type can t ne shared into any editing software Complete waste of time downloading I m upset I bought this     Private Trucker Showers

Very verry poor on options Unfortunately is the only app for my Garmin dashcam Hey Garmin I see you don t care about yours customers     Paul Petcu

Locks up when loading a video Have to restart phone I uninstalled on the first day     Walt Pawlak

Totally worthless App crashes every time I try to save a video What s the point if you can t save anything I have the dash cam for protection so saving the videos is important     Georgia Hilton

This app needs a lot of work Most of the time it won t even connect Says no Garmin device detected It s 2019 this app should work as advertised     David in Barstow

When trying to share video from dezl cam smartphone keeps freezing and advising cant play update app Using current version         Bruce Clark

The app is makes it difficult to transfer videos to a flash drive or a computer             Mark Reis

This app violates your privacy There is no way to copy a video from the dashcam to your phone without giving access for the app to harvest all of your personal contact data There is no reason the app should need this if all you want to do is copy video to your phone Bad permissions     Ray Nutter

How do I connect it to my garmin gps Doesn t give an option for connecting     Juan Rodriguez

Everytime I try to use this on my galaxy note 9 running android 9 it doesn t see find any videos or pictures when I m connected to the dashcam wifi and it crashes the camera causing it to reboot Very frustrating     Thomas Wood

Dash cam 55 Super slow transfer speeds the video file sent seems to be reincoded and is terrible quality too much better off to remive the SD card This app make the Wi Fi feaure of the camera useless         Jarrod Porter

App is barebones and unintuitive I can share my footage with the world but can t save it locally to my phone to prevent it from being overwritten Utterly useless     X X

Doesn t work with the apparently compatible dezlcam 785 My phone connects fine to the dezlcam but this app doesn t find anything and just glitches out These devices are expensive enough I expect things to work     Cameron Kelly

The app does not seem to work I have a Galaxy S9 running Android 8 0 and a Garmin 55 Dash Cam running firmware 4 10 Finding the camera is possible but once the connection is establishe the app goes back to the Search to connect screen Since it is already connected searching again puts the app in a searching loop and eventually says the camera needs to be restarted I have tried clearing the cache app data updating the camera having both saved and unsaved videos stored on the camera     Jake Hopkins

Update Got this working but it s really finicky Had to factory reset the Garmin Speak Plus clear cache and data from VIRB and Speak apps and get out of range from all known WiFi connections After that the app works as expected and I was finally able to adjust the camera angle App never finds the WiFi signal from my Speak Plus Tried clearing all cache and data reinstalling everything factory resetting everything No dice Garmin support out of suggestions             Jeff Needle

records quality audio and video from my garmin dashcam However this app makes it useless for the task of recording accidents or things of interest thanks to bad software It deletes video you ask it to save Seriously I ve tried to record a road range incident and a dangerous driving incident both by saying ok garmin save video All other video unsaved pictures etc are there But the video you asked it to save is gone         A Google user

rubbish seems to connect and disconnect when it wants takes about 20 minites to finally find a video and get it off the dashcam Starting to regret not buying another brand         Andrew Tyler

It works just fine if you follow the directions I ve not no problems connecting All you do is go into the cameras gallery menu select share gallery and a WiFi ID and password with be displayed Open the VIRB app and it will find the camera It will prompt you to enter the password Upon doing so it connects and works just fine                     Erik Landrum

What is the point of this app I can share files via PC which is much more straightforward than via this Needs more features to justify its existence The whole connection to the device via sharing gallery is just plain bad design Connection is one thing and gallery is another Mixing the two just shows how bad the engineers are     George Kamperis

Worked at first but kept saying that the memory card was at the end of it s life span It was new I bought another 64 GB card same error msg so I bought a 32gb seems to like it better but now won t connect to the google pixel wifi any more It s updated and I reinstalled virb twice Still won t connect     Wade Verret

it always drops out even when less than one meter away from the dashcam all I want is to be able open the app to see my footage         Bret Glazer

unable to export video Tells me to restart virb and restart camera After doing so I tried again and still fails Borrowed an iphone to export the video via iPhone virband it worked no problem     Dan B

This app is a total let down and its about time garmin fitted it your virb 30 camera is a brilliant bit of kit being let down by a total rubbish app this app has terrible lag and connection problems every time I want to use it it just does not work as it should so I end up having you use my Sony camera instead garmin you need to take a look at Sony s app this is just top notch and works brilliantly just a shame garmins app not the same Great camera rubbish app sort it out Garmin please     Thailand Tony

The 55 camera itself seems very good but the app doesn t work at all It keeps asking to forget the camera network and re enter the password but never actually manages to do so Galaxy S9     David

Virb very seldom connects to the cam and when it does it won t show any footage Any tips         David Slabaugh

No livestream for android nearly 2 years later So disappointing     Mircea Popa

I just purchased this Dash Cam 45 for the sole purpose of being able to access my camera on my phone it s not connecting tried and tried uninstall and reinstall still not working Garmin you should figure out what is going on and fix this problem     Donald Spencer
