Firmware 18.5

[darrenj1]

Last night I received a notification for a new firmware from 16.3 to 18.5, which I thought was quite a jump, and after many attempts (crashed my cam a few times and had to wait for battery to drain to try again) It has updated.
'
IS there any knowledge of the release notes as the website still says 16.3 (have I got a secret version) Cannot see any changes yet, and hoping it resolves some of the many issues with this cam. Alexa still didnt work.

Hi Darren,

We've been reviewing and updating the firmware, and we've now started staged rollout for R18.5.

I'm very sorry to hear you can't connect Alexa. Please can I ask what model of mobile phone you have, then I'll be able to recommend a resolution.

Thanks,
Millie- Nextbase

Alexa does work on Xperia 5 and Xperia 1., using the dashcam.

The Xperia 5 is Alexa Compatible, so please follow this instructional document which should get you successfully connected.
