About this app

DriveVault Dashcam turns your Android phone into a privacy-first dashcam. No accounts, no cloud uploads — your recordings, GPS data, and clip library stay on your device unless you choose to share.

RECORDING

- Rear, front, and dual-camera modes (concurrent CameraX)
- Background recording via foreground service with notification controls (stop, lock clip)
- Auto-deletes oldest unlocked clips when storage is full

GPS & TELEMETRY
- Real-time speed, heading, and coordinates overlay
- Compass direction display
- OSM-based mini map — no API keys needed
- Full telemetry recording per clip (location samples, heading, snapshots)

CLIP MANAGEMENT
- Browse, search, and filter your clip library (by camera mode, time range, lock status)
- Lock important clips to prevent auto-deletion

EXPORT & SHARING

- Configurable sync rules (Wi-Fi only, charging only)

ANONYMOUS CLIP SHARING (Optional)

PRIVACY
- No cloud uploads by default
- No accounts or sign-up required

Perfect for daily commuters, rideshare drivers, and road trip enthusiasts who value their privacy.

DriveVault is free and supported by ads shown on the clip library, clip detail, and settings screens only.

What’s new

Fix Play Store foreground service permission compliance: RecordingService now correctly declares camera, microphone, and location foreground service types at runtime, matching the manifest and actual usage.
