TomTom Bandit

Updating my review: very fast action after commenting that app didn't work in Oreo, now it does! Super great! Thanks a million for the fast action again. It is super with the TomTom bandit camera Appes upon first opening in android Oreo 8.0 on oneplus 3t. After allowing permissions it jumps to app settings in android menu. Please fix!

I've had this camera half an hour which I've spent trying to update connect cant connect wont connect blah blah blah sending it back cant be bothered any more will just buy a decent one with decent support .

Updating my review as I've had some problems. The connection to the Bandit fails reliably even though the WiFi is connected to it the app isn't. I kill the app and restart it and it then connects. The live preview gets stuck on my screen overlaying any recorded videos I try to watch back until I rotate my screen (aka cause a screen refresh manually). This app is the best reason to buy the TomTom Bandit. The quick editing without having to becoming a video editing whizz or get to your company is a massive win. Note that TomTom offer the incentive of more overlays for reviewing their app. The review content is my own words and thoughts.

Please fix the WiFi issues with Moto G5. The app is useless with out that wotking.

Nexus 6P. Worked just fine before Oreo update. It keeps asking permission to 'use location when connected to wifi'. When you say yes it goes to screen asking to uninstall or force stop. Will not allow me to go past that point. How long before this is sorted please

This app does not work with Android Oreo on the Google Pixel XL. It was working fine before the OS was updated. I am have the same problem as other users have reported. I will change my rating once TomTom has resolved this issue. Until then I recommend against buy the Bandit is you are running Oreo

Doesn't work after last update. Stuck on "connecting" screen. Coupled with the Bandit's inability to use one of TomTom's verified sd cards for more than a couple of months, the TomTom Bandit was an expensive mistake. Moto X Style. Android 6.0 Update:. OS update has now corrected previous issues. Now connecting fine.

Doesn't work after fresh install on Pixel running Android Oreo! Get prompt to allow access to location but hitting "Approve" takes you to app settings page where location is not listed as a permission. Hitting "Deny" just closes the app. Please fix!!

It take long time to connect at the first time. Actually i was devastated and gave low ratings earlier. But then after several attempts now its connected and working fantastic. And after the 1st time, it never take more than 10 seconds to conect. Good work..

Utter trash. Has gone from dropping WiFi connections to simply not working under Oreo on Pixel XL. It asks for permissions you then can't grant it because the option isn't there. Coupled with the horrendous build quality of the accessories and the fact it keeps corrupting my SD cards, buying this camera was a poor move, and this unfinished app simply underscores the point.

I'm still having problems to connect the camera to my phone( Motorola moto x 2nd gen, android 6) if it does connect, it recently drops out very quickly. I'm very disappointed with the app and camera

Please can you get it to work on Samsung Galaxy S2. It used too but a software update has stopped it working. Generally quite good on my phone.

Don't install this app if you have a phone on Android Oreo 8.0 because it doesn't work :-( I've emailed the support team and they can't give me a date of when it will be optimised for Android Oreo. So I'm very disappointed to say the least as I've only just purchased a TomTom bandit camera and I can't use the app that goes with it. I'm so surprised that a big company like TomTom haven't got their act together ????

Sticks on connecting screen. Very very disappointed i really need the cam for business reasons and its put me in a very bad position with clients. Please fix immediately or roll back to previous version. Will update rating if fixed.

When pairing device with camera gets stuck at connecting although camera says it's connected. If I try to record app crashes instantly. Samsung S7

Just bought the camera and same problem with other users. The app stuck at "connecting" screen and not moving on Have tried to install and uninstalled several times. Still doesn't work. Please help

I don't like the fact that if you try to make a video it just puts together the the scenes at random or the ones that have more action you can't even edit it yourself What I'm trying to say is I don't like the editing system

My app is not getting past the screen of allowing location settings. I have a pixel XL. I have uninstalled and installed three times, and am not able to use it

Out of all all the other action cameras out here, the only reason i bought the TomTom bandit was because of the app. I've had the camera for three weeks now and have not used it once because upon receiving it, i realised that the app doesn't work with the new android oreo update on my Nexus 6p. Way to go guys ???? #regrets

D i s a p p o i n t i n g the camera itself is junk. Waste of money. And you didn't check anything. Don't try to look as if you do something. U don't. And ur software is completel junk

Latest update means app won't go past the 'connecting' screen making the camera hard to use - seriously disappointing. Sort it out TomTom

Reinstalled on android 8 and it won't work. It asks for storage and location permissions but only then asks for storage then it crashes

Latest update causes camera to stutter. Worked fine yesteday.

The app doesn't work after the last update, the camera cannot be connected

Huge disappointment​. Out of the box it worked fine the first time (fw 1.5x), was prompted to install update to 1.6x, stupid enough to install it and have never been able to connect to the device ever since.

Not able to edit video on a Huawei p9

Can't get the Camera to link via the app on my Galaxy S8.

This update is not working at all!!! The camera is locked in "Conecting" phase... Please make something to work with Android 7.0!!!

Doesn't work with Oreo

Works fine with my Nexus 6p on Android Nougat

All fixed, working perfectly, thanks.

The app simply doesn't work on Android 7.0.. impossible to connect the two devices, so the camera is a bit useless to me. At present I'm not sure but I might be returning the camera if this is not resolved. Moto G4

Just purchased today, super excited as I already have and use TomTom Spark watch, cannot connect to phone. Super disappointed. Please sort out a patch soon.

Great app but still has a lot missing. Audio editing is weak, inserting a long clip is a pain, no real good editing tools available. Still, if you work within its limitations you can still get a great video out of it.

Of all the video I've shot in my life on video camera I've hardly watched anything back. But this app and the camera changed that. It gives you just the right amount of restrictions to quickly have something very presentable and enjoyable!

Dont buy it!!Can't watch a whole video with GPS data etc without a very long work around I thought this would be the first feature of app and desktop software considering it's a GPS camera. Software let's it down alot!!!

It does not connect to a lot of Android 6 phones. (especially Motorola phones) This is a known problem that many people have. Upgrading the camera firmware doesn't fix the problem. I am Very dissatisfied as the selling point of this camera is the app.

Update. Thought I'd give this another go in the hope the tomtom might have actually sorted out the connection problem but alas they have not. When trying to connect to my Lenovo tablet the app just goes on a constant loop of saying that the wrong pin has been typed in and therefore won't connect to the camera. It's strange because it works perfectly with my iPod but I suppose Apple gave tomtom more money to make sure that this app only works on ios and not android.

This is great - the camera is well thought out and designed and so is this app. However, I would love to see some additional time-lapse options: 1. Increments greater than 60secs. (Even custom increments up to an hour?) 2. Date / Time stamp on footage 3. This is a bug I think... the having changed away from using 4k 15fps to another option, I now can no longer see the option for 15fps in order to change back to it. Thanks! Keep up the good work!

I first used this app with my bandit camera on Nexus 5 and work wonderfully. Then I switched to Nexus 5X and became kind of useless as a viewfinder while filming videos. Image keeps freezing making it impossible to use it for any purpose... Please fix it, it took away the pleasure of filming with my bandit camera
