YADA Drive 4+

It’s cheap is the only good thing about it, that says it all really. When connected the video quality is disgraceful, it’s like going back 30 years. It’s impossible to connect in less than 5 minutes, push this button push that button, you feel like throwing it out the window. The software is not user friendly by any stretch, the instructions are feeble and unclear. I could go on and on condemning this piece of junk but I’ve given it more time just writing this. In a nut shell? DONT BUY IT!! You’ed be buying a time waster. As the lady on the news said years a ago “I ain’t got time for this sh@&$”

I use this dashcam because I’m a pilot/escort for oversized loads. I was fortunate enough to have my dashcam on when one of the team was rear-ended by a semi. However, I will say the process to be able to pull this footage from the camera is very painful. I currently have my camera set to record in 3 minute increments, anything larger and the videos are too large to share on most platforms. So going through a full day on the road to locate footage took me forever. Once I located the footage, then I had to download it to my device, only to discover that I an unable to share footage from my iPad. If I try, the app crashes. OK so go through the process of downloading footage to my phone…NOW I can share. I really considered purchasing a rear camera to ensure I’m covered 360 degrees, however after the experience I’ve had with this and other apps, I will be purchasing a dashcam from another manufacturer.

Hoping that it would be nice to have a dash cam that would work well, and I was sadly mistaken. First of all connecting the cam to your phone is nearly impossible. The video quality looks like a razor flip phone from 2006. The battery life is a joke, and will shut off every other time you use your car. Will constantly disconnect and won’t reconnect for no reason. Do not buy this. If you did, make sure to return it as soon as possible
