Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about installation, recording features, app connectivity, and warranty support.
Installation
How do I install a JADOCAM dash cam?
Attach the mount to your windshield, route the power cable along the trim to your 12V socket or fuse box, insert a microSD card, and power on. Most installations take under 20 minutes. Refer to our Installation Guide for step-by-step instructions with diagrams.
What power source does the dash cam use?
All JADOCAM dash cams come with a 12V car adapter that plugs into your vehicle's accessory socket. For parking mode, a hardwire kit (sold separately) is required to connect directly to the fuse box.
Can I install it myself without professional help?
Yes. JADOCAM dash cams are designed for self-installation and require no special tools. A full installation guide with diagrams is included in the box and available on our website.
Does it come with all the cables I need?
Yes. The package includes a 12V power adapter with a 3–4 meter cable, the rear camera cable (for dual-channel models), mounting hardware, and all necessary accessories. A hardwire kit for parking mode is sold separately.
Recording & Features
What video resolution do JADOCAM cameras support?
Depending on the model, JADOCAM dash cams record at 1080p Full HD, 2K QHD, or 4K Ultra HD on the front channel. Rear cameras typically record at 1080p Full HD. Check individual product pages for exact specifications.
How does parking mode work?
Parking mode keeps your dash cam recording even when your engine is off. It uses motion and impact sensors to trigger recording only when needed, conserving storage space. A hardwire kit is required to keep the camera powered in parking mode.
What memory card should I use, and how long will it record?
We recommend a UHS-I or Class 10 microSD card (32GB–256GB). At 4K resolution, a 128GB card stores approximately 4–5 hours of footage. The camera uses loop recording — when the card is full, the oldest footage is overwritten automatically.
Does the dash cam have GPS?
Most JADOCAM models include built-in GPS that records your location and speed alongside the video footage. GPS data is embedded in the video file and can be viewed in the app or on a compatible player.
Does it record audio?
Yes. All JADOCAM dash cams include a built-in microphone for audio recording. Audio recording can be disabled from the settings menu or the app if preferred.
App & Connectivity
What app does JADOCAM use?
JADOCAM Wi-Fi-enabled models use the JADOCAM app, available free on the App Store (iOS 12 and above) and Google Play (Android 8 and above). The app provides live view, video playback, clip download, settings control, and firmware updates.
How do I connect the dash cam to my phone?
Turn on the dash cam and enable Wi-Fi from the camera's settings menu. On your phone, connect to the camera's Wi-Fi network (shown in settings), then open the JADOCAM app. First-time pairing typically takes under 2 minutes.
Is the app free?
Yes. The JADOCAM app is free to download and use. There are no subscriptions or in-app purchases required.
Can I use the app while the car is moving?
The app can be used while the vehicle is stationary. We do not recommend using your phone while driving. The dash cam records independently without requiring the app to be open.
What if I can't connect the app to my dash cam?
Ensure your phone's Wi-Fi is enabled and you are connected to the camera's network (not your home or mobile network). Check that the camera's Wi-Fi is turned on in the settings menu. If issues persist, try restarting both the camera and the app. Contact support if the problem continues.
Warranty & Support
What warranty does JADOCAM offer?
All JADOCAM dash cams come with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Damage caused by improper use, accidents, or unauthorized modifications is not covered. Visit our Warranty page for full terms.
