Description
Use your iPhone as a dashcam and record your road trips for playback.
Embeds GPS coordinates and/or time, speed, altitude and accelerometer data in a hidden video track.
A DashCam Recorder App to continuously record video (non-stop recording).
An embedded track in the video contains time, GPS coordinates, speed, altitude and accelerometer data.
Either based on the international ISO6709 standard (GPS only) or in a NMEA format (all data).
What's different to other DashCam Recorder Apps?
● Embeds GPS location metadata in the video for simultaneous playback on a map
● Has a macOS companion App to play video & position on a map simultaneously (not included, available in the macOS AppStore)
● Truly free iOS app, no ads, no in-app purchase, no signup, no 'pro' version
You're not supposed to use your iPhone while driving, so why not use it as a DashCam?
Or even better, give your old iPhone a 2nd life by using it as a DashCam.
► NOTE
To visualise the embedded GPS data on a map you need an App which supports the ISO6709 location metadata format or the macOS App "Movies And Maps" (not included). When you use the macOS App "Movies and Maps" you can visualise the GPS route with time, speed, altitude and accelerometer data.
If you need an App that supports earlier iOS versions (from 9.0) please look for "Movies And Maps Recorder".
