Dashcam
- No more Root required
- All Resolutions the Camera supports
IMPORTANT
- Android 4.4 Users will require rooted devices for the Play store version.
Dashcam allows you to attach a USB webcam to your phone or tablet and record videos or take pictures. Dashcam is one of the easiest ways to install a dashboard camera in your car and record videos.
The app requires that your device is USB OTG capable and has webcam support enabled.Please check if your webcam is on the list of supported devices ( http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/ ).
Starting with Android 4.4 superuser (root) rights are required for this app to work.Some Android 4.3 devices may already need this, too.
Several of the most common video resolutions are supported.Videos and photos are saved on the device and can be viewed in the gallery.If Motion Jpeg is not selected videos will be saved as mp4 files.It is recommended to use Motion Jpeg for faster video displaying. When Motion Jpeg is selected videos will be saved as mjpg files. MX Video player is recommended to view them.
Troubleshooting:
We recommend to use a powered usb hub to attach the webcam. Webcams may require a lot of current which can cause your device to reset as the Webcam is turned on.

I hooked up 2 different cams to my phone and this just keeps saying error with a black screen and dose not work on my lg g3
Droid Ultra Rooted Kit Kat 4.4 - works for a few random seconds (less than 10) then camera cuts off. Reapplying the settings will turn it back on most of the time. May be the lack of power supply, but the same camera works fine on the "USB camera trial" app, but it is also $15 for the full version.
That's it I'm giving up..I've tried loads of apps and none of them work. Boroscope to phone can't happen I reckon.....in fact no matter what I download from app store it doesn't work. No wonder they say 1000s of free apps. Because none of them work.. Latest Motorola E . Android kit-kat 5-0. And no apps do anything. Or if they do they are so embedded with advertising you spend more time clearing pop ups than you do using the app.. Anyone think the same or am I very unlucky. .
A truly awesome app I've been waiting a loooooong time for... Because I can finally use with my USB endoscope, but only problem is it won't record videos because it only records the first frame and it won't work on my Galaxy S3 but works fine on S5.
Does not work with my non-rooted Samsung galaxy s3 4G. Just thinks uvc cams are unsupported devices. Running 4.3 now I rooted it and it still won't work with it..
All the other times I get a green screen with maybe 20 out of 480 lines... Too bad because if it was more consistent, it would be perfect.
Sure the interface is basic, but I was able to use my USB snake cam to help see inside walls for joists. AWESOME
It freezes when I try to change resolution it works about one out of 10 times .
Rooted s3 foenst work my s3 endscope ill have to use it on my clunky windows tablet
Using a Logitech C300 (on the list of supported devices). App just says device has no uvc driver. This is on rooted 4.4. Works fine on other apps
... while ALL the others do work fine with my noname 640x480 cam. I'll stick with free usbwebcam.
The application now works perfectly on both of my devices as of 1.9. Thanks for the update! Looking forward to option saving and aspect ratio controls. Thanks again.
After testing a bunch of other apps, this was the first to finally recognize my USB camera. The interface is clunky, but it's definitely functional.
Works great with my Trust webcam and my i.onik move 7 android 4.1.1
Did not recognize any Logitech cameras on my s6
This is the only app that works for an external camera. I used it on an unrooted 4.2.2 device (Xperia L) with a powered USB hub and it just worked! Love it.
Its the only application among its category to recognize my external cam but still not working. Its on beta stage, right? Guys do some overtime.
Doesn't work on Android 7
Used it with my inspection microscope works great for that purpose
But needs the ability to adjust brightness, contrast, etc...of what you are viewing.
Device has no uvc driver on s3 where to get ghis driver
Not compatible with droid
Microsoft lifecam hd_3000 is in the list but all i see is grey screen
On my Galaxy devices, all I get is a grey screen with no options whatsoever.
No camera found...I have two?? Cameras.
Does what it says
Piece of crap
Only app (besides ridiculously overpriced CameraFi) that I found which works with my USB mini camera. Simple interface without watermarks and reasonable ads.
