Frequently asked questions
Clear answers about coverage and responsible use.
Does the app show fixed and mobile cameras?
The product lists multiple camera types, including fixed, mobile, red-light and average-speed cameras. Coverage can change, so posted signs remain the primary source.
Can I use it while driving?
Prepare the app and route before moving. Keep the phone mounted where permitted and avoid interacting with it while driving.
Is every camera guaranteed to be listed?
No database can guarantee complete or perfectly current coverage. Use alerts as an extra reminder, not as a replacement for road signs and attention.
