Long story short – from driver to drivers
I often drive a car with the navigation displayed on my phone, which is mounted in a holder on the windshield. It occurred to me that it would be possible to turn on background recording and use the phone as a car camera. I started looking for an app on Google Play that could record in the background, was stable, and could be easily set up. I tested a lot of Dash Cam apps from Google Play, but none suited me, so I decided to write my own app. User-friendly Dash Cam Travel application used as a car camera to the windscreen of a car for daily riding. Dash cameras are the most objective eyewitnesses on the road.
