Mass Storage Mode (Windows and Mac)
This mode is used to view, edit and share recordings using NEXTBASE Replay 3 playback software on
your computer.

- Mass Storage mode is 'read-only', this means that content on the SD card can only be read, not
updated or erased.
Update Mode (Windows and Mac)
This is used to Update the firmware on your Dash Cam, using NEXTBASE Replay 3.
Please see details within the NEXTBASE Replay 3 Playback software for more information.

Questions and answers
when I press the blue connect button it does not flash and I **** unable to connect to my phone
If the blue Wi-Fi button on the NextBase 380GW is not flashing, it means the camera is not in Wi-Fi mode. To connect to your phone, press the Wi-Fi button until it starts flashing. If the button remains solid blue, the camera is already connected to a mobile phone. If you still experience issues, try resetting the camera and reconnecting from scratch.

Do you need a special tool to remove side cover to access stop recording button 380GW As it doesn't seem to move very easily and I don't want to cause damage to the outer casing
No, a special tool is not needed. The side cover can be removed using the fingernail slot.
