Review on πŸ“· IP69 Waterproof WiFi Backup Camera - License Plate Frame Camera for Cars, Trucks, Vans, Pickups, SUVs, iPhone/Android Phone Compatible, Night Vision, Guide Lines On/Off by Dean Ledet

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Own WiFi, so no internet/data required

Initially I had problems with the instructions on how to make the camera work faster. It seemed to take a long time for the phone's screen to show where the camera was pointing. I felt like I could return it. B/c I just turn my head and the b4 cam turns on. I mean sometimes I had to close the app and turn it back on or turn Wi-Fi off and on again, what a hassle. Another complaint is that the screen is dimmer than the factory screen. Even in night vision. The Chinese are just bad at translating and explaining in English. So I will try to help. Remember, I explain that the procedure consists in connecting the power supply to the 12V socket that we used to call the cigarette lighter. After all connections are established, the camera will appear on your phone. That's where I want to start; 1.) If your phone has other wifi when auto connect, it will be disconnected from rear camera wifi and you need to repeat above steps. So make sure that b4 you plan to use it for backing up your computer etc. on your phone for this camera to connect to Wi-Fi automatically. If it's on, make sure your phone is connected to Wi-Fi, then just open the app (if you see a black screen with nothing, that's a good sign) w8 seconds or 2 and wallah! The viewer turns on when your phone is rotated in portrait mode to landscape mode for a wider view. Warning: This will not happen without opening the 1st app after power on. It's not like the guy who has his own monitor that works as soon as the car starts or goes into reverse. Also the app has a white screen with wifi: either blank or it shows the name of the wifi network with confirmation (don't mess with it, it's a waste of time and it doesn't do anything, it takes endless spins So 1 . ) Turn that on Turn on the device 2.) Check your WiFi connection 3.) Open the app 4.) VALLA "Now I can see clearly, it's bright sunshine today!
