I understand what both of you are saying. However, many of these Wishlist items are not for new features but improvements of existing ones (e.g., request to reduce boot up time from nearly 19 seconds to anything faster, even if not 0.2 seconds). The updates from the competitor I mentioned are also for improvements of existing features and not bug fixes.
Of course if the camera software was truly buggy, I'm sure Viofo would respond with a timely fix. And I understand some of the issues customers are reporting may not be fixable with a firmware update and are likely more hardware related (e.g., management of how hot the camera gets / how to handle hot internal car and camera temperatures to prevent a camera shutdown) so any fix would have to come with the next product generation.
It's just personally disappointing to see a very similar product that is also mature (released only 2 months after Viofo's) and working well "as is" gets provided consistent updates that are not bug-fix related while Viofo has not released any updates since January
I've made several comments related to boot up time optimization since it was suggested (by Viofo) that it's being worked on. But as far as I can tell Viofo has not responded, I'm assuming that actual attempt are not being made.
