Dash cam
Every trip is recorded in full, front and rear, and logged under Trips. When storage fills, the oldest trips make room. Keep the ones that matter: a whole trip, or the last three minutes with one tap.
Your Shark, sorted.
A dash cam, Sentry on all four cameras, and your videos on your iPhone. Your phone puts it on the Shark in about 5 minutes, without a laptop, a cable or a forum thread to follow.
For the BYD Shark 6 in Australia. The iPhone app is in early beta on TestFlight: request early access and we’ll send you an invitation.

Set up from your iPhone
It takes three steps and about 5 minutes in the driver’s seat. After that Sharkify looks after itself.
-
Enable ADB on the Shark
A few taps on the Shark’s own screen. The app walks you through them, and ADB turns itself off when the Shark restarts.
-
Connect to the Shark
If the Shark is on your home Wi-Fi, the app finds it there. If not, your phone joins the Shark’s own hotspot with one tap.

Sharkify goes on
Your phone sends Sharkify to the Shark, sets it up and opens it on the screen. You don’t plug anything in, and there’s usually nothing to tap.
What your Shark is missing
The cameras are already on the Shark. Sharkify puts them to work.
Your trips, on the Shark’s own screen.
Sentry
Watches all four cameras while you’re away. It asks when you shift into Park, or arms itself when you lock up, and turns the climate, daytime lights and music off while it watches.
Shift into Park and Sharkify asks. Tap Arm and the screen goes dark while Sentry watches.
Videos on your phone
Watch your dash cam videos on your iPhone whenever you and your Shark are on your home Wi-Fi, or over its hotspot anywhere, and save the ones you want to Photos. They come straight from your Shark, encrypted the whole way, and never pass through our servers.
Your trips and Sentry events, on your iPhone.
Keeps itself up to date
Sharkify updates itself while you’re parked. You install it once.

Questions

Which Sharks does it work on?
The BYD Shark 6 sold in Australia. Sharkify checks your Shark’s BYD software before it installs anything, and only goes on software it has been tested with. If yours is newer, nothing is changed and the app tells you.
Do I need a computer or a cable?
No. The iPhone app does the whole install over Wi-Fi: your home Wi-Fi if the Shark is on it, or the Shark’s own hotspot. You enable ADB on the Shark’s screen first, and the app shows you how.
Where do my videos go?
They stay on the Shark. Your phone fetches the ones you ask for, straight from the Shark over Wi-Fi, encrypted the whole way. They never pass through our servers.
How does it stay up to date?
Sharkify checks for updates itself and installs them while you’re parked. You don’t need the phone, and nothing needs plugging in.
Is it made by BYD?
No. Sharkify is made by Promptive in Australia and isn’t connected to BYD. We take every care, but putting any app on your Shark carries a small risk, including a screen that stops working. You use Sharkify at your own risk, as set out in the terms of use.
