Recommendations for an iPhone dash cam app

[A900ss]

Hi,

I'm looking for an iPhone dash cam app that will run in the background whilst I'm running either Tom Tom or Google maps app. I'm after the usual items, video, gps and speed. Any recommendations that will run in background are most welcome.

I know that there is a monster thread of about 5,000 pages about dash cams but that is now not manageable to check and I assume it's more about stand alone devices.

Thanks

I think you'd struggle to find a dash cam app that runs in the background whilst other bits are also running, not to mention your battery would last about 2½ minutes.

It would also chew through memory quickly. I bought a fixed cam for my wife for about £35. It comes on every time the car is started, and overwrites old files when the card is full. I really wouldn't bother with an app.

Exactly this, mine has an 8gb card in and manages 8hrs of recording.

8 hours is more than I'll ever need. I'm thinking a coupe of hours at most and then over write.
