iphone hardware and scenic 3
Quote from Jensimo on 01.11.2021, 03:34Hi, before making my point I‘d like to say I love scenic and it‘s the one and only app for riders!
One big advantage of using scenic is independence from additional hardware. I am using scenic with an iphone 6 and with iOS 12 im stuck there with now legacy scenic 2 app. I‘m using an iphone 6 on purpose, because cameras on all newer iphones die when attached to a RAM X-Mount. I doubt other adapters are better from what I read. This kills one big advantage of scenic over dedicated navigation devices. How are you dealing with this? What do you recommend? I tried with buying used iphone with wrecked camera but most used iphones are overpriced and have other problems. As a former software developer I do understand you can‘t support old iOS versions, but with the inability of Apple to build devices for this purpose, what is the point of using a current iphone and wrecking the camera when riding around the block with your single cylinder bike shaking cameras stabilisation to death? Btw. I‘m an early life time supporter.

i killed my first camera of the iphone XR.
My twin-cyl engine was to much for the cam.Thereafter i changed the camera in the iphone XR und bought the Quadlock vibation damper.
It seems to work now without any problems : https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2576/2754/files/VibrationDampener_VIPAC_Testing_900x600_03_550x.jpg?v=1594880512

Quote from Guido on 01.11.2021, 09:04Hi Guys, yes... vibration dampeners seem to be the solution. I myself am using the QuadLock vibration dampener with my iPhone 12 Pro. No issues. I have used this setup for 6000 km, with two different bikes (Yamaha FJ09 2016 and KTM 1290 Adventure R). No issues. On my Yamaha is where my iPhone XR camera broke two times before I was using the vibration dampener. Here's my review of the vibration dampener: https://scenic.app/quad-lock-vibration-dampener-unboxing-installation-and-road-test/
As for Scenic 2 vs Scenic 3. You will still be able to use Scenic 2.... if you also have another device with newer iOS, then you can even use Scenic 2 and Scenic 3 alongside each other. There are some culprits though. More on that here: https://scenic.app/help/scenic-3-info/

I use an case ditectly mounted on a 1"-ramball frome ULTIMATEADDONS https://ultimateaddons.com/pages/motorcycle without dampener. ULTIMATEADDONS writes (https://ultimateaddons.com/blogs/news/worried-about-vibration-issues?_pos=1&_sid=3fe878ed3&_ss=r) that with their cases they have only 0.01 % of issues reported ...)
Until now, only 6.500 kms, no issues.
