Garmin Drive™

I have 512gb memory cards in my front and rear camera and no audio turned on. Yet every few days I get a message that the camera is slowing down and I need to reformat my memory card on both cameras. They are quality memory cards that follow the recommendations of Garmin as to what type should be used. What is frustrating is that this happens so often even though the vehicle is parked inside a garage most of the time and not driven on long trips. Also when the memory card slows the ability for the app to connect to the cameras for live viewing and stay connected becomes virtually impossible. It makes no sense to me that a company like Garmin who made the decision to delve into the market of dash cams has failed so miserably. Their customer support acts like everyone us stupid and not tech savvy which is even more annoying as I deal with tech stuff all the time and install security cameras frequently at my job and set up many of them at my business as well. When a small company like Wyze Cam can accomplish the basics in their software like having cards loop record over old recordings when the card is full, it’s super annoying to see a company that has been around so much longer not be able to make this a working option. Yes I know it shows in the settings that there are two options and one of them is this however if it doesn’t actually do it when it is selected as the option then is it truly an offered feature. Come on Garmin get it together for the sake of your customers. Unfortunately I could not go with Garmin for my new vehicle. I decided to give the Rove R3 a shot and see if they were able to provide a quality product with working features.

The camera (DC Tandem) is really well designed. I love using it for recording my rideshares. This app, on the other hand, has been kind of frustrating. The app lets you see a live view of what the camera is seeing, but half the time, when I try to use that feature, the app glitches out and won’t connect to the camera. If it does work, it’ll also freeze as it’s displaying the video, and if I want to switch between the front (outside) view and the back (interior) view, it almost always causes it to glitch out and freeze. If Garmin could fix these bugs I would be very grateful. Thanks:)

We recently used our Garmin Drive 65 GPS on a trip touring South Dakota. There were lots of areas where there was no phone signal. The GPS was great, always on and working, I especially liked the tone, it made alerting to speed changes…and displaying the speed zone, speed. This is my 3rd Garmin product, and I’ve always been pleased with their durability, function, and ease of use…

I love it

garmin has 12 apps now and none of them have the basic functionality to send a route to a car GPS. it would be laughable if it weren’t so frustrating. It’s the most basic thing any GPS could ever do : get me from .point A point B to point C. can I send that route to my GPS through any of these garmin 12 apps ? nope. gotta use Basecamp and a USB cable like it’s 1997. you keep missing the target for user experience, Garmin.

Use for over the road traveling sales. Works great. I have the mini 2.

Very happy with both products ease of use.

no monitor means no distraction. small means drivers will not think you have dash cam

Happy with purchase, Haven’t had a bad experience with a Garmin product yet!

If I had known these cameras would be this bad I would’ve bought one for $5 on Temu. There’s no way they could be worse. I’ve deleted and downloaded the app three times now and even though the phone is 18 inches away from the camera while it is in Bluetooth mode the app can’t find it. I thought a camera with the Garmin name would be a safe bet seeing as there are a pretty big company but I have had nothing but problems with the two Garmin minis that I have purchased. Do yourself a favor and buy a small red LED light and stick it to your windshield. It will be a lot cheaper and it will do just as much as these cameras do.
