Reviewing Downloaded Files
When you save footage in IC View Pro, the clip is only stored within the app itself. To make the file available outside the app, for example saving it to your phone’s gallery or sharing it with someone else, you’ll need to export it. Exporting creates a copy of the recording that can be accessed, transferred, or sent through other apps on your device.
- Select Config from the home screen, shown as #1 in Image 2 - Config Menu
- Select My Files to access backed up recordings
- Long press and hold on a single file or use the multi select tool in the top right. Shown as #1 in Image 3 - My Files Menu
-
Click the Share or Save icon. Selecting share will show available apps to share through. Save will export the footage directly to your phone's onboard storage. Shown as #2 and #3 respectively in Images 3 - My Files Menu.
Image 3 - My Files Menu - Optional - You can delete the images from your storage device by tapping the trash can. Shown as #4 in Image 3 - My Files Menu. This will only remove it from the phone. The file will still be accessible on the video recorder or camera.
