camera stopped working! does not remember settings! after reset off the camera and set up through the app the camera still does not remember the settings! voice commands are impossible to set up due to some unknown error? a language change is not possible english-american is the only language available? makes it a little bit useless when the camera does not remember the settings you made in the app. this is not a new occurrence lots of users have reported this but Garmin doesn't do anything abou

Clunky App, Drains Battery
After adjusting my dash cam via a clunky, awkward to use app I left the app running in the background and haven't touched it since. After a few days or poor battery life I checked what was consuming battery and it was Drive, using 30% of my battery on its own. After closing the app I received a notification from arrive that I should leave it open for the best experience with my Garmin devices. Even if that was true it's not worth the excessive battery usage, not even close. If you want people to continuously run your app they shouldn't be paying for it if awful battery life.

one of the most frustrating experience I've had trying to set up a dash cam. constantly disconnecting, constantly app restarts, can't connect to two cameras at once. I would think woth a big name company like garmin, their product would work and connect with their app better. if I wasnt restricted by the word count of a review I would go on with more of how bad this app is. please garmin fox your app, I want to like this app and the product. the cameras are good. the app sucks and will not work.

Far too pushy about the Drive subscription nonsense, makes your devices show up with a red error state for an expired subscription even if you've never subscribed. This also prevents real errors from being readable in full, they get cut off by the advertisement. Absolutely heinous UI/UX work design to irritate people into subscriptions they don't need.

Enter the full address to search, and the result is ambiguous I can't see the full address at all I don't know if the search answer is correct I didn't think that Garmin would come out with this quality software with the same address You can find the right location on the navigation host Why do you want to come up with this kind of garbage to mislead users

4.26.37 is now broken as the subscription model has changed for vault access. The app cannot support 2 or more devices connecting to the one vault subscription and it again has started crashing regularly as it doesn't know what the server is telling it to do. Come in Garmin you take 2 steps forward and then 3 steps backwards....
