Retrieving Interior Camera Videos

This guide helps you find and save the interior-facing camera footage to the Nexar Connect app.

Written by Bea

Nexar’s interior-facing camera connects to your Nexar dash cam and allows you to record the inside of your vehicle in 720p quality. The interior-facing camera does not have its own storage, so it uses the dash cam's internal memory while being connected to it.

Videos that are saved to the internal memory and clips created using the Nexar Connect app with the interior-facing camera will be saved with audio from inside the vehicle.
