What happens when the flash drive is full, will it start overwriting
the earliest recordings?

Although am I right that constant recording isn’t available on UK cars?
Collected mine on Tuesday and dealer said it wasn’t.

It will not record or overwrite if the flash drive is full

Thanks, still have a feeling that in the UK we don’t have the option to record all the time. I’ll have a play with it this weekend.
If we don’t think will have to fit a dashcam.

I have tried it and you can record all the journey onto usb stick but you have to have the app open all the time. I presume you are on iD9 so I don’t know if it’s the same as iD8.

When I tested it yesterday on ID9, I didn't need to leave the Drive Recorder app showing all the time. I was able to view the map and left-hand widgets such as media normally.

I haven’t tried it for a good while, it maybe different on iD9 or the OTA update has made that possible on iD8, I will have to give it a try.
