Comments on Hopkins Towing Solutions for Android

★★★★★ Easy to install camera. Haven't got to use it until this weekend.

★★★★★ Good camera. I also use it as a rearview mirror.

★★★★★ Works well, as a rearview mirror, can run Google Maps in background. Little difficult to judge distance, but should improve with more practice.

★★★★★ I've heard that this is the best Bluetooth camera the operates on 12 v

★★☆☆☆ Totally unreliable. After initial install I finally got it to work. Then the first time I needed it, it would not work. Software is totally unreliable. I had to enter and reinter the password. Finally had to uninstall software and then reinstall it. After that I could not get the software to work. All it would do would take me to a screen that said I was connected to the Wi-Fi without internet. Yeah, I knew that, but I could never get off of that screen. I called for technical assistance, but they had no idea why the software wouldn't work. Reinstalled AGAIN, with the same results. I have version 12 on my Galaxy Note 20 smartphone. This camera is simply not a good choice if you want something that works when you need it. I suggest that you purchase a camera with a dedicated monitor that uses Bluetooth. This is a total loss for me.

★★☆☆☆ Cannot connect to this app despite multiple attempts. So frustrated for spending $$ on something you can't use...especially AFTER camera was already mounted.

★★☆☆☆ What a waste of time installing. Night view? LMAO. Maybe with infrared LEDs, you used actual LEDs? Good thing I can see the beam of focused light barely. Who designed it? Fire them. Trashcan product

★★☆☆☆ For the price, the camera works good. The problem I saw was the default when the camera was turned on is to have the LED lights come on. It is illegal to have a white light on the back of your vehicle. The app makes it very difficult to change this mode. I have to tap the control many times to shut the lights off.

Trust & Safety: The app requests network and storage permissions along with CALL_PHONE and a trailer camera dynamic receiver permission (DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION). Not ProGuarded per dev features. These permissions are typical for a trailer rear-view tool, but sensitive permissions like CALL_PHONE should be clearly justified to users to maintain trust and safety.
