Initial Setup

Firstly, ensure your dash cam is connected to a power source and in video mode. There’s a special button on the front of the camera that enables the WiFi connect mode. This button varies between different Rexing dash cam models, so check your user manual or a video guide for specifics.

Enabling WiFi

Once you’ve enabled WiFi on your dash cam, the WiFi name (or SSID) and password will appear on the camera screen.

Connecting Your Mobile Device

Now, grab your mobile device and navigate to the WiFi settings. Search for the dash cam WiFi and select it. If you’re connecting for the first time, you’ll need to enter the password displayed on your dash cam screen. Once successfully connected, a ‘WiFi connected’ message will pop up on your dash cam’s screen.

Using the Rexing Connect App

With the connection established, it’s time to open up the Rexing Connect app on your mobile device. Upon launching the app, you’ll see a button labeled ‘Connect’. Click on it to pair the app with your dash cam.

When you’re connected, a live preview of your dash cam view will appear on your device, along with various functions that allow you to control your dash cam, modify settings, and view or save any media stored on the dash cam’s memory card.

Accessing Videos and Photos

Use the buttons at the bottom of the screen for navigation where you can access the dash cam storage and browse through your captured videos.

The video library is categorized into two tabs: ‘Unlocked videos’ and ‘Locked videos’. To download clips on WiFi, press and hold the clip until a check mark appears in the top right corner of the clip. Use the download button on the bottom left of the screen & videos will be saved directly to your device’s storage.

Disconnecting from the Dash Cam

When you’re done, return to the main control screen in the Rexing Connect app and hit the ‘Back’ button to disconnect.

Exiting WiFi Connect Mode

Lastly, to exit WiFi connect mode on your dash cam, hold the same button used for entering WiFi connect mode. Once the camera returns to video mode, you can hold the power button to shut down the dash cam completely.

Additional Troubleshooting Tips

• Reduce the dashcam’s recording resolution to 720p by pressing the side button, navigating to ‘Resolution’, and selecting ‘720p’.
• Delete non-protected dash cam videos by navigating to the record option on the dashcam and selecting ‘Delete All’. This won’t affect G-Sensor protected (locked) videos.
• If the problem persists, restart your smartphone and the dashcam and try again.

If you need to save videos directly to your device, consider removing the SD card from the dash cam and manually transferring files to your device via a computer. Alternatively, explore the following methods.

Direct Transfer Using a Dongle

This method employs a dongle with a lightning plug, compatible with an iPhone.

1. Insert your micro SD card into the dongle.
2. Once connected, access your files from your phone’s Files folder.
3. The SD card will appear as an additional drive, open the SD cards location files.
4. Follow the path: Volume 1 -> Card V -> Movie -> Ro, to locate your saved files.
5. Select the files to transfer, click ‘Save’, and the videos will be saved to your Photos app.
6. Afterward, reinsert the SD card into the dashcam. To ensure you only have the latest recordings, consider formatting the SD card via the dash cam’s menu.

Wi-Fi Transfer Using Third Party Apps

This slower method doesn’t require additional hardware and involves the Tema Cam app.

1. Download it from the app store,
2. Connect your phone to the dashcam’s Wi-Fi (remember to halt the dashcam’s recording and hold the OK button for credentials), and
3. Launch the app.
4. Hit ‘Connect DVR’ and ‘Connect Device’.
5. Pause recording and navigate to DVR Album,
6. Select your videos, and wait for them to download to the app.
7. Once downloaded, save them to your phone’s album.

Though both methods are functional, the direct transfer using a dongle tends to be faster and more efficient. Given the inconsistency of the Rexing dash cam’s app in transferring videos, the use of the third-party Tema Cam app can be a reliable alternative.

Download Successful

Congratulations, you’ve now become proficient in extracting videos from your Rexing dash cam! We’ve explored into every detail from connecting with the Rexing app, adjusting your dashcam’s resolution, managing your recorded footage, to understanding alternate methods of video transfer.

Whether you prefer the lightning-speed transfer using a dongle or the convenient yet slower Wi-Fi transfer through the Tema Cam app, you’re equipped with the know-how to get the job done. Remember, each moment captured by your dash cam is a reflection of your journey—don’t let it fade away. With your new skills, each video can be effortlessly saved, replayed, and cherished.
