Dash cam apps tested

Which is best for your phone? We put eight to the test

BEST BUY THE Drivermatics is our reigning champ, and for good reason. It’s by far the easiest app to use, and we like the attention to detail. It was the only one that could link with our insurer and breakdown provider. The app has an SOS button that will then alert both if you have a crash. The interface is straightforward, with all settings easily accessible. It offers a satnav option that works with Google or Apple maps while it runs in the background. We also liked how easy it was to adjust settings, from the video resolution to the time it records after an accident.
