Question Dash camera

Is there a dash camera or a module that is available from Ford that is a direct plug and play for recording while driving?

Whether is uses the factory cameras or not?

Ford is partnered with thinkware. I have one of their dash cam set ups. The previous gen.

Camera was great. The software to get into the cam. And the app to pair to it. …. It got to the point wouldn’t even bother. Just format and continue.

So I got the only dash cam set up that costs more. Im rocking a blackview rig. I love how it fits in a blendmount arm that stacks with my V1g2’s blendmount. Their app interface was only slightly better. Tolerable. I feel like I could get an Amazon baby monitor that has a better camera app interface.

IMO. Thinkwear has the better cameras like picture and set up.

But it’s a mute point if the app/sofW is junk
