Just hit record — Rodi reads license plates, burns the speed, time and address you choose onto your video, and automatically organizes every drive into a trip.
Rodi is a smart dashcam for your everyday drive. Mount your phone, hit record, and Rodi captures the road while burning the key details — license plate, speed, address and time — right onto the video. Every clip is automatically organized into trips, so your drives are easy to find later.
WHAT RODI DOES
• Real-time recording with on-screen overlay — speed, current address, time, and detected license plates baked into the footage.
• Automatic license-plate recognition while you drive.
• GPS trip tracking — every drive gets a route map and stats (distance, duration, average speed).
• Navigation companion — a glanceable mini-map on the recording screen, so you can follow your nav app's guidance and keep the camera rolling at the same time.
• Smart trips — clips are grouped into trips automatically by time and location.
• Edit afterwards — fix a plate, address, or timing on any clip before you share.
• Share with the overlay baked in, or export the original.
• Import existing videos and add trip info to them.
• Hands-free control — pair over Bluetooth and your car's steering-wheel media buttons start/stop recording and zoom, with an audio confirmation, so you never take a hand off the wheel.
• English and Chinese, with localized addresses.
PRIVACY FIRST
Your videos stay on your device and in your own photo library — Rodi never uploads them. Location is used only to draw the overlay and map your trips; it never leaves your device. The only data Rodi collects is anonymous, app-usage analytics to improve the app — not linked to your identity and never used for tracking.
Keep the shape of every road you take.
Sharper 4K, an accurate map, and navigate-while-you-record.
• Crisper video — 4K now records at a much higher bitrate, so zooming in on a license plate stays clear (and exports keep that quality).
• Accurate trip map — your route now lines up with the real roads.
• Navigation mini-map — a glanceable, movable map on the recording screen, so you can follow your nav app's guidance and keep recording at once. Tap to open full navigation.
• More reliable plate recognition when you re-scan or import videos.
• Smoother editing — plate re-scan runs in the background with clearer progress.
• Videos now carry the device/camera info, and the screen stays awake while you record.
