Yep, the Garmin Dash Cam 67W can work with iPhones, but getting them to play nicely together can be a bit tricky.
From our research, it seems that plenty of folks run into some hiccups when trying to connect it to iOS devices. The magic happens through the Garmin Drive app, and that's where things can get a little wonky.
A lot of the hassle comes from the app's instability with iOS, which can make keeping a reliable connection challenging. This might be because of interference from things like VPNs or other features like Apple’s CarPlay that might hog the same wireless channels.
If you're having trouble connecting your Garmin Dash Cam 67W to your iPhone, try a couple of things. First, disconnect your iPhone’s Bluetooth from other devices—like your car’s audio system—before linking up with the dash cam. This can sometimes help smooth out the bumps.
Also, if you've got a VPN running, it could mess with the Wi-Fi connection. Maybe disable it temporarily, or tweak its settings to allow trusted networks, which might help too.
And don’t forget about your power setup if you want continuous recording or a solid Wi-Fi connection while parked. You might need to get extra cables for a constant power supply, depending on your car.
If things are still dicey, a factory reset might just do the trick to fix the connection gremlins.
After the setup, a lot of people really like the dash cam's build quality and what it captures. Just a heads up, though—it's not always perfect, especially at a distance like reading far-off license plates unless you're right behind them.
So, while it can indeed work with iPhones, be prepared for a bit of troubleshooting. Once it's all set up, it should work pretty well for you.
