It's an impossible ask. Even the cheap $20 imports require an app to set them up.

Privacy nightmare on multiple fronts, given the latest wifi/bluetooth scanning revelation.

    I literally bought a no name dashcam a few months back that's 4k on the front and 2k on the back and it just records to an SD card.

    I skipped any product that showed an app, phone, or android icon.

    Got a link? I'm actually in the market for a replacement and have had no luck finding a simple device.

    I've been very happy with my viofo which is SD only and no app. But damn, have prices gone up in the last 5 years.

    every Viofo I've checked had WiFi + app. Even the cheap ones.
