Frequently asked questions
Q. What is the difference between these three Snooper and Road Angel speed camera detectors?
A. The Snooper MY SPEED Plus is a budget speed camera detector using a GPS speed limit database with free lifetime updates. The Snooper MY-SPEED DVR PLUS adds a built-in 1080p HD dash cam and a second, daily-updated AURA speed camera database, also with free lifetime updates. The Road Angel Pure One takes a different approach, using live community-reported camera data over a built-in SIM connection and adding laser detection, but it requires an ongoing paid subscription to use its live alert features.
Q. Which of these devices has laser detection?
A. Only the Road Angel Pure One includes laser detection, as part of its GPS/GSM/GPRS/Laser technology. Neither the Snooper MY SPEED Plus nor the Snooper MY-SPEED DVR PLUS offer laser or radar detection - both rely on GPS speed camera location databases instead.
Q. Do I need to pay a subscription for any of these speed camera detectors?
A. The Snooper MY SPEED Plus and Snooper MY-SPEED DVR PLUS both come with free lifetime updates and no ongoing subscription charges. The Road Angel Pure One is different - it requires an active subscription to use its live camera alert features, starting from £99.99 per year on the Essential plan, with Advance and Complete Plus plans also available at higher price points. Road Angel subscriptions are not sold by ActiveGPS and must be activated directly with Road Angel after purchase.
Q. Which model has a built-in dash cam?
A. Only the Snooper MY-SPEED DVR PLUS includes a built-in 1080p HD dash cam alongside its speed camera alert functionality. The Snooper MY SPEED Plus and Road Angel Pure One are speed camera detectors only, with no dash cam recording.
Q. Are these devices compatible with Windows and Mac?
A. The Snooper MY SPEED Plus and Snooper MY-SPEED DVR PLUS both update via a Windows PC (Windows 7, 8, 10 or 11) - neither is Mac compatible. The Road Angel Pure One updates over the internet and its own compatibility guidance confirms use with PCs, laptops, Macs and smartphones.
