I can't connect my iPhone to my dash cam

Since changing from an android to Apple I have had a problem with my Nextbase 522gw wi fi not pairing to my 14pro. The Bluetooth, and satellite all connect apart from the wi fi. Have emailed Nextbase who make the camera via email who were quiet helpful giving me detailed information and making sure the phone and dashcams software were all updated and said the phone is the problem. Since April when I bought the phone i cannot pair the phones wi fi, to allow me to download film footage to my phone. My wife has a i phone 12 and an i pad, both connect with no problems. A way of getting around this was to buy a lightening card reader but on reading the reviews this also has stopped connecting with the newer phones, is it because Apple has changed the software that they also use for the dash camera? Has the programme been changed that is on older phones? IF anybody has this problem on the I phone 14 series could you please let me know it would be gratefully appreciated.

I have the same problem my Nextbase 422GW dash cam work fine with my old iPhone X, unfortunately it failed, I have replaced it with a new iPhone 15, it occasionally tries it hardest to blue tooth but fails. I am going to try the wife's iPhone SE tomorrow to see if it will connect.

After a lot of searching, I found a forum, apparently Nextbase need to do a patch as they don't work with iPh 14

Make sure one has a spare, large capacity micro SD card..?!

I have same problem with my Lumix DSLR too, iPh 14 shows connected to Lumix wifi network, but fails to remote control or transfer images etc. (Yet to find out if a Lumix issue). Old iPh 8 still connects to both, so I will have to use that meantime.
