What makes a dashcam app useful?
A useful dashcam app should do more than save a long video file. It should manage storage, make important moments easy to protect, and add the journey information that helps you understand what happened.
Loop recording
Older unprotected footage can be replaced as storage fills, so you do not have to manage every clip manually.
Incident protection
Flag an important moment so it is kept safe from being overwritten by the loop.
Journey data
GPS, speed and timestamp information can give useful context alongside the video.
Android compatibility
Test battery optimisation and background settings on your specific phone, because manufacturers handle them differently.

Who should choose something else?
Dashoo is not a claim that phones are better for every driver. Choose dedicated hardware if your main requirement is parking mode, a camera that stays in the car, or a setup that never depends on mounting and powering a phone.
