Garmin VIRB

The app won’t connect my IPhone 14 to the dash cam. The phone detects the wi fi signal of the dash cam but will not connect. The error message said no internet connection detected. The only way to view videos is to connect the dash cam to a PC.

I never used this app when I first got the camera it was so bad. Now you can do the 3D perspective edits sane as the desktop version quite easily. Glad I tried it again after several years.

Can’t access dash cam video on my smart phone. It will no longer allow me to connect via the wifi feature to view videos from my dash cam.

Absolutely abysmal just to get the video on the smartphone. Come on Garmin, code something half-decent.

I can’t seem get my phone to connect to the app. I can find my dash cam in my WiFi list and connect to it, but when I open the app it won’t say it’s connected. I wait and wait, but nothing happens. It’s such a garbage app.

I thought this was going to allow me to easily send dashcam videos from my PC’s Garmin GDCPlayer to my phone. Even a short video is too massive to move by conventional means (12 second clip is 11.5MB). However, this app only interacts directly with a limited number of wi-fi compatible dashcams (which mine isn’t). Regardless, even the on-screen set-up instructions for the app were cryptic and difficult to follow.

Really disappointed, the auto ‘record when moving’ not working, looping seems to have a mind of its own and the app is constantly disconnecting, not pairing even though I’m on the cameras wifi. And no matter what I try will not connect. Says no card, so I have to open and pop in/out to read. I don’t know maybe I got a bad one.

Ok so with garmin 45 downloading at “highest quality” I see grainy footage.. I can tell it’s down scaling this footage because it’s rendering something. Why can’t you just allow it to download at original quality? In contrast when I plug it into the computer using the garmin dashcam app the same exact footage is fine. Can someone please update this? Something wrong is happening with the rendering > virb > save video

I’m using garmin DA 51 lmt-s with dashcam. If the garmin is already connected to Bluetooth, the why i need to go gallery and then press share and then in my fone connect to garmin wifi? Its totally stupid. The app should be able to seemlessly render videos with an existing connection without any complications. Please consider a good redesign of the app. Never expected such thoughtless app from garmin

My iPhone and iPad both detect the WiFi signal on my Dashcam 45 but the VIRB app refuses to make a connection from either one. There appears to be no source of advice from Garmin on how to troubleshoot this problem. This is very disappointing after my successful use of a Garmin GPS device for four years. Any suggestions?
