This guide will help you find and save Nexar Pro and NEXC2 interior-facing camera footage to the Nexar Classic app.


Nexar’s interior-facing camera connects to your Nexar Pro or NEXC2 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 Nexar Pro or NEXC2’s internal memory while being connected to it.

Videos which are saved on the internal memory and clips created using the Nexar Classic app with the interior facing camera will be saved with audio from inside the vehicle.


How to Retrieve Videos From the Interior-Facing Camera

In order to retrieve videos from the interior facing camera of your Nexar Pro or NEXC2, after completing a drive, remain near your dash cam and make sure it is powered on.

Then proceed with the following steps:

1. Make sure your phone's Bluetooth and WiFi settings are enabled

2. Open the Nexar Classic app

3. Go to Videos

4. Tap the drive from where you want to retrieve your interior camera footage

5. Tap the Create Clip button

6. Tap the small camera icon from the top right corner of the screen to switch to the interior facing camera

7. Select the segment you want to save using the scrolling tool at the bottom of the playback screen

8. Tap Create clip


The clip will be saved under the drive it was clipped from on your home screen and then upload it to the cloud server for future access.


Video Is No Longer in Your Dash Cam

If you’re receiving a message that says This video is no longer in your dash cam when attempting to create a clip from your interior-facing camera, it is possible that it was already overwritten by the new videos you have created. Nonetheless, you can still attempt to perform playback of the exterior footage that is associated with it as long as it's still saved on the app.


Internal Memory Capacity

Exterior and interior-facing camera videos are equally stored inside the dash cam’s internal memory (click here to find out how to export your drives from it).

Below are the estimated number of hours that you can save according to the dash cam's storage capacity:

Internal Memory

Hours of recording

32 GB

2.5

64 GB

5

128 GB

10

256 GB

20

Once the limit has been reached, it will begin to ‘loop record’ once you start a new recording (a new drive). Hence, it is highly advisable to create a clip immediately in case you need the footage from either the exterior or interior camera.
