Raise your car’s iQ with Nextbase. Every feature is designed to help you predict threats, protect your car, and step in before something happens.

The Protect and Protect Plus subscriptions ensure you have all the features necessary including Live View, Smart Sense Parking, Roadwatch AI, Witness Mode and more, for the world’s first truly Smart Dash Cam.

Setup - Install your Nextbase iQ in just two minutes. Our user-friendly guide walks you through the setup process with easy-to-follow instructions and tips to get you on the road in no time at all.

Includes setup guidance for Nextbase iQ 1K, 2K and 4K models, including the Nextbase iQ Rear Camera.

Live View – See what your car sees with the always-on camera from anywhere in the world

Smart Sense Parking –Your iQ detects threats using Spatial Awareness and custom-trained AI to monitor movement around your car and record the footage. Such as potential break ins, a car backing up too close, or people loitering around your car. Intervene from anywhere with voice* or an alarm to act before anything happens.

Witness Mode – Never face danger alone again. Simply say “start Witness Mode” anytime you feel on edge, in a road rage incident, or if you’re pulled over. Your iQ will lock onto the incident and share live footage with a trusted contact so they can step in and help.

Guardian Mode* – Stay in control with Guardian Mode. Set speed and location limitations on your iQ and get a notification if your car breaks them. Guardian Mode can provide reassurance if a family member has borrowed the car, or if you have given your car to a valet or mechanic, so you don’t have to worry about the ‘what if’s.



Emergency SOS – Get instant life-saving help. If you, or whoever is driving are unresponsive after an accident, your iQ will share location and key medical details and dispatch the emergency services.

Roadwatch AI* - AI comes to life. Go back and see the evidence with Roadwatch AI adding crucial context to any recording. See approximate speed and distance of vehicles around you, whilst also classifying pedestrians, cyclists, vehicles and more to track their movements as you watch. Prove your side of the story.

Always-On 4G Connection - Access your data anytime, anywhere. Our secure encryption keeps all your data safe. Your iQ uses an always-on 4G connection to make your files accessible, no matter where you are.
