Rand McNally Wi-Fi® Backup Camera
· High-quality digital video
· Video that is visible at night or in low light
· Easier installation than hard-wired cameras
The camera attaches simply via the license plate bracket. A Wi-Fi transmitter with antenna sends the image to the device screen via the app. The image shows automatically on the app screen once the Wi-Fi connection is established.

Absolutely horrible system. No longer works with android since.they don't seem to want to update the software. Waste of money
Good picture quality but sometimes loses signal and can be difficult to connect to. But I only paid $30 for the camera at Best Buy so I guess it's a case of you get what you pay for.
You have to open the app once the reverse gear is On.so that it will easily detect the camera.if u open the app and then if u turn to reverse gear the app keep loading for camera
when i try to find the camera yhe app says invalid password. no way to find the password much less manually enter one. WTH not happy.
Does not work at all. Point less, 20$ back up camera that does not work anymore.
Keep going down! Need to improve more, if not the device is only junk.
Its not like the pictures it got bad lagging promblem
camera never connects to the app
Why don't yall update the app
It connected to your car
This serves its purpose

Haven't even used it yet but I'll say this. The camera is only going to load once WiFi is established which isnt always instant. With current consumer tech, a wired connection is the only way to ensure the video pops up on your screen promptly every time. I'm thinking about using an ardunio board that waits for an input from the reverse lights and then creating a flow on the automate app that opens the camera app.. we'll see if I can get it to work
I have the camera unit wired to reverse connection. About the App. Slow to react to wifi signal. Refresh very slow & not very intuitive. No way to change wifi SSID. No way to override WiFi priority to avoid stronger signal. Had to d/l WiFi priority app seperately. Hopefully the App will get better in future, but for now it is just a 3.
Wifi transmitter doesn't work more than it does work. Each time I try to use the camera it's a roll of the dice if it will work or not. Most of the time, its not
App is glitchy. Never know if it will work or not
Camera quality is, OK, but needs to occationally delete the current camera to find it again, especially if my OverDryve 8Pro is already on wifi, then it doesnt seem to find the camera unless i delete it and research manually.... At least using continuous power not reverse lights. They should make the camera able too connect to the existing wifi in my vehicle instead of its own, and that way i can keep my internet connected and then just make the camera recieve an ip from my wifi, and then my tablet or phone for example, could connect at will as the camera would always be connected, as opposed too having to drop the current wifi to find the camera... Also, the camera can only point on about a 45 degree angle downwards, but i think it should be able to go abit more, i can only just barely see my trailer hitch on my truck, but like 5 degrees more and i could see it properly and not loose anything of the view behind me. EDIT: app could see and connect to the wifi but shows no camera... For like 2hrs today, if its gping to be this spotty, i cant believe anyone doesnt return theirs, im about to remove it and return it, usless if i cant open at will
