    Where did you mount the camera? Post your pictures

    Decided to paint the Thinkware F800 silver lens cap and silver sides black with Rustoleum flat black paint. Same location as above, but now you can not see it. Even from inside the car it blends into shape of the rain cap sensor. Very discreet I think.

    Where did you mount the camera? Post your pictures

    Installed a Thinkware F800 on 2011 Ford Fusion SEL. Seems the best place to mount the camera is on top of the rain sensor cap. The two benefits of that location is that it is off the windshield, which means less direct sun light for cooler operation, and it is very hard to see from the front...

    Live View isn't really Live View

    Here's an advantage with live view if it worked in real time and not a 2 second lag. I noticed that during an extremely hard rain were I can barely see the road, live view sees the road much further and lots better, like 10x better. I think it is because the camera lens is right at the windshield.

    Live View isn't really Live View

    I get a about a 2 second delay between real time and live view using the android app with a Samsung Galaxy S7. Anyone else having this problem? Also, if I click on any videos they are always glitchy, skip, and distort. They only play correctly if I download them to my phone first or play on a...

    THINKWARE F800 PRO

    When I looked at the F800 Pro user manual I didn't see anything to support that. Actually, I didn't see anything that talked about the cloud, cloud settings, requirements, and use. By the way, I can't even sit in my car in park mode with my cell phone and access videos. Parking mode turns off...

    THINKWARE F800 PRO

    The video looks like it oversimplifies how your car contacts you. Unless there is another phone in your car I do not think it will be able to notify you at a remote location.

    F800 Pro finally supports 128GB

    Seems like the Pro version is geared more for the commercial market where drivers work for you. Not sure of all the features, but here are my thoughts of what I think Thinkware may have compared to Blackvue Cloud, and as a regular Joe Blow consumer as a guide: 1. Remote Live view - Might be...

    F800 - Verizon & S7 Galaxy - Getting it to work

    For all those that just purchased the F800 I hope this helps. Here's my tips after many many hours of frustration using the android mobile app dated 8/10/17 and 1.00.04 firmware, which is the latest as of today. My setup is hardwired and takes advantage of all the features of the dashcam. 1...

    F800 installed

    I also had problems getting the time/parking settings to "take" and because the software/firmware doesn't work, it probably didn't help by doing resets and formats that kept putting the unit back to default. Anyway, I was so frustrated with my F800 yesterday on that issue that I returned it to...
