    is there a back up camera that will work with android tablets/phones?

    I am not sure if this is the right forum.

    Does someone make a remote Bluetooth or WiFi camera that runs on 12 volts and can interface with either a tablet or phone that runs Android?

    I would like to get a back up camera for my truck (to use while backing up, so I don't hit something). I would rather not have a dedicated monitor because my truck is old and I don't have anywhere to put it. I would rather have something that I can use with a tablet.

    It doesn't have to turn on automatically when I put my transmission in reverse. I can just turn it on or off manually.

    I think you'd be better off using somthing like this, which is wifi not bluetooth. Bluetooth doesn't travel as far or carry as much data: https://amzn.to/2KECjJo

    I also used to use a Wifi action camera suction cupped to the back of my truck before I installed a backup camera so I could hitch up solo... like this one https://amzn.to/2KCXMlV

      Android Car radio with backup cameras are out there:

      ...but I think you were asking about an dedicated app with camera hardware, but not worth your time on money, in IMO.

      I just look when backing up, as legally required, or maybe get a smaller vehicle that you can handle driving AND backing up.
