Nexar’s new dash cam mount is a suction cup with built-in GPS that is intended to help the app have a more precise auto-recording function and better incident detection while on the road. The Nexar GPS mount ensures a more accurate connection between your vehicle's location and the dash cam’s recorded evidence, while securely holding your dash cam in place with a firm suction cup.
Is it compatible with my dash cam?
At the moment, the GPS mount is compatible with Nexar Pro and Nexar Beam. If you purchased your GPS mount separately (and not with a dash cam), please make sure that you have the latest version of the Nexar app (you can visit your phone’s app store and check for updates) and that your dash cam has the latest software:
- While next to your dash cam, make sure it’s powered on and open the Nexar app (don’t be within range of your home/office WIFI)
- Tap on More > Settings > External camera > Camera update
- The update process should take 2-5 minutes
Please note that the GPS mount is not compatible with flat windshields (these are common in trucks and RVs).
