    Posted by pjgriff on 2025-06-28 at 18:56

    Hi

    I have just purchased the K7 and in the instructions it’s says to update the firmware.. so do I need to download the firmware on a pc or can I put the SD card in the K7 ( I have a 32 GB card I can use) format it through the app. And can I download the firmware through the app.. and I take it after I updated the firmware I can use a larger SD which I’m going to get a sandisk extreme 512 GB..

    Many thanks just a bit confused on this part

    You must use a computer to download the new software onto an SD card.

    The K7 connects to your phone using the wifi, and there is no way to connect it to the internet at the same time.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Paul,
    See the Innovv website for an explanation of how to update the firmware.
    https://innovv.com/pages/innovv-k7-support

    How To Update K7 Dashcam’s Firmware
    Copy the firmware (IN-K7-1.bin) to the root of theTFcard. (Please use 8 to 32GB TF cards and the TF cards should be formatted into FAT32 in advance.)
    Insert the TF card into the camera and turn it on, when the remote control blue light and green light blink alternately, please wait until the lights are off.

    *Please do not power off and operate the K7 while it is updating. After the successful upgrade, the K7 will automatically boot up and the red light will solid on. The firmware will be deleted once updating is finished.

    I noticed that the instructions said to update the firmware, however when I checked the support site the version to download was IK7.20241016.V04 which appears to be older than the version on my K7 which is IK7.20250317.V05. How come the support page doesn’t have this later version?

    Cheers
    Bob

    Hi Robert,
    It is possible that Innovv just missed this. They recently rebuilt their website with a completely different look. I suspect that this is where it went ‘wrong’.

    @INNOVV Can you please adjust this so that the latest firmware is available to everyone?

        Hi Tony,
        Once you have connected your phone to the K7. Open a web browser and go to http://192.168.1.254
        On the web page that opens you have access to the SD card. Maybe you can copy the firmware to the SD card this way.
        I don’t know if the above works for the K7, but it’s worth a try.
