    Use one without connectivity. Or get a microSD to SD adapter and a Wi-Fi-enabled FTP SD card… but I don’t think they make these anymore, much less durable, fast, high-capacity ones. Or get a USB-C microSD reader and keep it in the car if your phone has no free microSD slot.

      Those WiFi SD cards probably aren’t any more secure than the cameras.

      If the camera supports downloading video over USB, you can get a USB OTG cable to connect it to a phone or tablet. Otherwise a card reader is the way to go.

        The camera’s USB interface tends to be rather slow, sometimes not even using the full USB 2.0 speed. USB-C card readers sometimes have USB 3.0 and internal ones are very fast, so you’re only limited by the medium’s read speed. And it allows a card swap if you have 2 so you can keep recording with a brief pause.

      I have one that crashes and resets itself a lot. My settings are mainly suggestions. It’s like a windows machine in my car and I hate it. Fucking Thinkware trash.
