Which phones and vehicles this camera fits
The AUT View app needs iOS 13 or newer, or Android 10 or newer, so your phone becomes the display instead of a separate monitor. If you drive an older handset, we'd skip this one and look at a kit with its own screen.
The magnetic base holds on flat metal surfaces, so a steel bumper, trailer frame or hitch area is what to plan around. On aluminum, plastic or fiberglass panels, there's nothing for the magnet to grab, and that changes whether this camera is the right pick at all.

What it does and what it does not do
This is a live camera feed, not a diagnostic tool. It shows what sits behind your truck, trailer or RV, and it will not read fault codes, tell you why a sensor tripped or confirm that your brakes and lights are working.
The camera's built-in hotspot is only for the phone link and won't get you online. Keep that in mind when you set up the app.
The supported transmission range is up to 230 feet in open areas, which is the figure to weigh against the length of your rig and the metal between camera and phone. A 1080P feed with infrared lights handles low light, so backing into a campsite after dark stays usable.
We'd consider this a viewing aid for reversing and hitching, not a substitute for a fault scan or a walk-around before you move.

At $79.99, this sits $26.22 below the typical price over the last 90 days of $106.21, a 25 percent difference. That window is the only comparison to lean on here, so treat the gap as a snapshot rather than a record.
Buyer feedback isn't the deciding factor anyway. Your own fitment checks matter more than any average.
Power and mounting details to confirm
The camera runs on a solar panel that extends battery life between manual charges, and it also accepts Type-C charging. How often you need that cable depends on sun exposure and how much you use the feed, so think about where the panel will sit before you buy.
Mounting takes seconds because the base is magnetic, with no tools, drilling or wiring called for. Confirm the metal surface is flat and large enough for the base, and that the camera angle still sees your hitch or rear bumper once it's stuck on.
Who should buy this camera
This suits a driver who already carries a newer iPhone or Android phone and wants a rear view without adding a dashboard monitor. It's especially handy if you move between a truck, trailer and RV, since you can lift the camera off one metal surface and set it on another quickly.
Skip it if your phone is older than the app requires, or if the only place you can mount a camera is non-metal bodywork. In those cases the magnetic mount and phone pairing simply won't come together.
