Has all the features I was looking for. This is the BEST dash cam app I've used on android. I've tried them all too. We'll worth the price. THE ONLY features a guy could ask for is ability to choose a specific external SD folder, OBDII implementation, and the ability to have the speed/location burned into the video. However, with the subtitles export capability this is less of an issue. If you've tried other dash cam apps, and they left you wanting more, BUY THIS APP. Try the free version, then BUY IT.

With help of Automate (another application similar to Tasker) I created a condition to start the background recording after plugging my phone into the holder so that it won't start taking video provided only with power. The recording starts itself, there's no need even to light the screen up and search for any shortcuts. However. For the condition to work free version of Automate isn't enough (as number of elements in the condition exceeds free limit). So I had to spend few $ on it myself. But now it works as required. I've built this condition myself. Here goo.gl/DNwQj4 is a link to Automate right to the condition. All the rest is handled by Road Recorder without significant issues.

Rock solid dash cam functionality. Never crashed, fairly low battery use. Background recording allows you to run a SatNav function whilst driving. If you do not have a separate Dash Cam I would thoroughly recommend this product and have gladly paid for the pro version.

The PC app does not work on win8 or win XP so I can only see videos with speed on the phone, on other devices there's no speed visible

UPDATE REVIEW: The developer is working hard on this issue, but I still stand by my review. Applications such as Road Recorder really need to work on reporting errors within them so that the developer can see if there are any conflicts. The developer has used the same Samsung s3 that I have, and it works for him, but not for me. So it has to be something on my device. Just wish there was a way to send the error report from within the application. Problem is. There is no error report generated. Just corrupted files. If you can get the free application to work perfectly stay with the free application or decide to go ahead and upgrade only at your own risk. The problem with this application is that when you really need it it is absolutely useless in my experience. For example the pro version doesn't even record video on my ZTE MAX Pro. And there have been at least three times I really need the video evidence, and now it's not there with the file corrupted. It's not the SD card or internal memory as I have changed cards, and save locations. PAWEL IS VERY RESPONSIVE and is working hard to fix the issue. But as for me, I am going to have to suck it up.

I've been looking for a dash cam app that has everything I want. This app is close to what I need, but it does not show GPS setting while recording. It does not have a 'stop' recording button, so I have to end out of the recording. The free app does not let you see more than 2 recordings which does not help me at all since I drive for longer periods of time. Also, the recorded videos do not show the GPS settings either. I need to see these changes before I pay for the app.
