Show HN: Easy Dashcam – open-source Android app for a Wi-Fi dashcam

1•juanmespina•12m ago
I created Easy Dashcam to ditch an app called viidure which it's super slow and request gps permission and does no allow background downloads. The camera name in the box is Reddot Dashcam and in About this camera reports 1084-w90-WIFI-7789 and firmware 20250306 V1.0. The app connects over the camera’s local Wi-Fi connection. It can show live video and audio, browse and download recordings, play them back, and change camera settings. The camera protocol was reverse-engineered because I couldn’t find any standard for this type of camera

I’d like to support more cameras eventually, specially cheap Chinese models. I’m looking for owners who can help test whether their cameras use the same GPSOCKET protocol or require a different implementation or people who would like to contribute.

Source and demo: https://github.com/juanmespina/EasyDashcam
