Garmin Drive™ - Latest Quality Issues
Android

After the update, you cannot connect to the webcam.

App is unreliable, rendering the dash useless. I wont buy anything from garmin after this that's for sure.

There are better options.
The first connection was smooth and easy. The second time I wanted to connect to the camera in the car was already a challenge. Only live images were available (despite an SD card) but that was only possible with a subscription. Well no.... I have an SD card so don't do it. From that moment on, there is nothing left to do with the camera. I now have a camera that is no longer installable because any attempt to start from the beginning fails in making a connection to the camera. Right now I say.... Don't buy it.

I think after the last update, the application can open itself several times a day and interfere with the use of the phone. I don't understand why this is so.

Not worth installing
Considering this is a large technology company, it's surprising that their software and user interface haven't changed much since the 1990s when they were primarily focused on GPSs. Barring drastic changes in the software development area I cannot recommend Garmin apps or products.

This app is not usable. It can't handle coordinates at all (coordinates can't be entered manually or sent to that app from another app). When trying to send an address to the navigation system, an address with the same street name but in a completely different city is sent. It's unbelievable that these long-known errors are not remedied! I mourn the loss of the predecessor app Smartphone Link, with which everything worked without any problems.

Poor app. Does not show up in list of apps on phone. Does not connect with Bluetooth between phone and Drivecam76.

I installed it as part of my research before taking a decision on which dash cam to buy, however, the app doesn't allow you to use it unless you actually have a Garmin device. Garmin website doesn't provide any details about the costs subscriptions required to use all features from their devices as Vault, forcing you to blind buy their products.

Terrible. Takes ages to connect (minutes) to the phone and sometimes fails completely. I can't do anything with files saved to the vault despite have a paid subscription. Really poor all round. I went for Garmin as I have a watch and software is good. Not sure what has happened here however. Suspect I will stop the subscription and return the device to Amazon and just go for a cheaper alternative.
