Reports and cameras
Your own reports, sharing camera reports for review, and the camera editor for placing cameras on the map.
Menu → Settings → Map & navigation → Reports & cameras.
Your reports#
Everything you have reported, from the quick report button, a mapped button, voice or the encounter page. Edit or remove a report here. Your reports alert you on later drives and show on the map. iPhone only; on Android, reports are managed from the map and the camera editor.
Share for review#
Camera reports you drop on the map land here for refinement before they are submitted to the SpectreNav database. Open one, check its position, type and direction, then submit. Submitted cameras are reviewed by SpectreNav before appearing in the live database for everyone. The Menu shows a banner while reports are waiting here.
Camera editor#
A full-screen map for placing cameras precisely.
- Search a location or move the map, then tap the add button.
- Choose the type (speed, red light or plate reader) and set the direction it faces.
- Save. The camera alerts you immediately, and goes to Share for review for submission.
Drag a pin to move it; open it to change or remove it.
Where the camera database comes from#
The database the app downloads (see Camera alerts) combines public map data with reports submitted from the app. Anonymous signal data sharing is separate and controlled under Data & privacy.
Tips for accurate reports#
- Report from the lane the camera watches, facing the way you travel.
- One pin per camera; an average-speed pair gets a start and an end.
- Use the camera editor to fix a quick report placed a little off.
