This guide will show you how you can access your Nexar beam2 videos using the Nexar Connect app.

Your Nexar beam2 Drive recordings are stored in two locations known as "Residencies." No matter where your videos are saved, accessing them is simple with the Nexar Connect app—provided they're still not overwritten.

Follow these steps to access your recordings and create Manual Clips:

The Get High-Resolution Clip button allows you to trim high-quality Clips from full Drive recordings. There are two options when downloading high-resolution clip from your beam2 dash cam:

Remote Download allows you to save high-resolution clips from your dashcam without a direct connection. Each clip can be up to five minutes long, which is ideal for capturing specific incidents.

Direct Camera Access lets you download entire videos with no duration limits. By connecting directly to your camera via WiFi, you can stream full-quality footage to your phone, trim the parts you need, and save them to your camera roll.

To use direct access:

1. Open the Nexar Connect app

Drives that have been deleted from the Nexar Connected dash cam’s internal memory are indicated by a greyed-out viewer with a slashed-out play button in the middle, with a message below that says “This video has been overwritten by new recordings. Learn more.“
