Frequently Asked Questions
How is Car Cam powered?
Ring Car Cam connects to your vehicle’s OBD-II port and is powered by the car’s battery. Car Cam has a power management system which will turn itself off in advance of ever depleting the car's battery. For safety, only use Car Cam in vehicles where the OBD-II port is located to the left of the driver’s side dash. For help locating your car’s OBD-II port, please check your vehicle’s owner’s manual.
Does Car Cam work when the car is turned off?
Ring Car Cam remains vigilant while the car is parked, or off, and can continue to help keep your car secure to work in a low-power mode. Car Cam will "wake up" to record triggered events like disturbance detected.
Will Car Cam drain my car battery?
Ring Car Cam goes into a low-power mode when the vehicle is parked to draw even less power from the battery between uses. Although the device will monitor your car’s battery level and shut down when needed to help preserve the car battery, you should make sure your battery is healthy or else you will not be able to use the device.
Will I still be notified about activity in or around my car when Car Cam is not connected to my home wifi?
A Ring Protect Go subscription is required to stay notified about and check in on your your car when it’s on the go. Otherwise, if events occur while your car is away from your home wifi, your notifications will be queued up and delivered to you once Car Cam re-connects to your home wifi. See here for more information on Ring Protect Go subscriptions.
Does Car Cam save my videos so I can view them later?
Car Cam can save videos locally to the device, which can be played back in the Ring App. To download or share these videos, or store video highlights in the cloud to access anytime up to 180 days, subscription to Ring Protect Go is required, sold separately.
What privacy features are included with Car Cam?
For privacy inside the car, at any time, flip up the built-in Privacy Cover to turn off the mic and block the cabin-facing camera.
You can also disable location sharing at any time through the Ring App.
How does Traffic Stop work?
To record a crucial moment with Traffic Stop, say “Alexa, record”, and your Ring Car Cam will capture the scene for up to 20 minutes, even if you are parked with the car turned off. Additionally, with a Protect Go subscription, the beginning of the event will also be uploaded to the cloud.
Can I set a different home wifi for Car Cam than my other Ring devices?
Yes! Ring Car Cam wifi does not have to be on the same network as other Ring devices, but is limited to only one wifi network at a time. Wifi settings can be changed in the Ring App.
If I have an existing Ring Protect Plus or Pro subscription, do I still need to subscribe to Ring Protect Go?
Yes, Ring Protect Go is the only subscription plan that supports Ring Car Cam.
