Your Travel Guide & Your Camera Crew
Cobra SC Series dash cams are designed to protect you against life's blindspots: past, present, and future. That's why they're the only dash cams that feature both trip-planning and heads-up navigation. So you'll never have to look down at your phone while you're behind the wheel. And while an ordinary dash cam can tell you where you've been, only the SC series dash cams can show you where you're headed.
The Best Defense is a Sensor-Based Offense
We engineered our dash cams to protect you from anything that happens on the road. That's why they're the only dash cams that can display upcoming speed traps from a sensor-based network that's more accurate than the leading crowd-sourced app. Because the best way to protect you from life's blindspots is to make sure you know what lies on the road ahead.
See Every Detail In Stunning 4K
With Ultra HD 4K resolution, you'll get 4x the pixel resolution vs 1080P, so you can see and capture every detail on your drive

Is my camera compatible with Drive Smarter?
Only Cobra's SC Series cameras (SC 100, SC 201, SC 200/200D, and SC 400D) are currently compatible with Drive Smarter. Drive Smarter does not support legacy Cobra dash cameras (DASH Series, CDR Series) at this time.
Do I need to pay for Drive Smarter?
No, Drive Smarter is a free service provided to users of our SC series cameras.
Why am I having trouble connecting the camera in Drive Smarter?
You may have previously established a Bluetooth connection with the camera. If this is the case, please go into your phone's OS Bluetooth menu and 'Unpair' your camera from your phone.
How can I use the Mayday Alert feature?
Simply enable the G-Sensor and Mayday Alert setting on your camera, and enter your Emergency Contact info into Drive Smarter. From there, Drive Smarter and the dash camera will take care of the rest. If the camera detects that you have been in a serious collision (Level 5 G-sensor event), it will automatically lock the latest recording and notify your emergency contact.
How do I connect my camera via Wi-Fi?
You do not need to manually establish a Wi-Fi connection to your dash cam. Drive Smarter uses Bluetooth to automatically manage connection types depending on which feature you are using within the app. If you are using a feature that requires Wi-Fi, the app will walk you through establishing a a Bluetooth connection. Note: Older Android operating systems (Android 6, 7, and 8) may prompt the user to exit the app and connect via the OS Wi-Fi menu.
Why is Alexa not working?
• Ensure that you have downloaded the Alexa App. You need to connect your camera to the Alexa app to enable this feature.
• Check that the volume on your phone is turned up. The SC 400D uses its specially tuned microphones to invoke Alexa from the background of your phone and automatically reconnect when you enter your car. The phone is still the main source of audio for Alexa, enabling you to hear the replies through your car’s speakers.
• Check that Bluetooth is enabled on your phone.
• If you see a red bar on the camera, press the Alexa mute/unmute button on the bottom of the unit next to the power button.
