I am still a little confused on the app.
Do you mount the phone straight up and down?
Does it actually show a g force reading at each corner of the car?
The camera function for.this app does not work with my Droid incredible

It does say mount the camera stright up and down. I used mine in a cell phone holder on my daily driver and mounted the phone in to it. I made sure that all 4 directions are close to 0 as possible, cause that told me my device in straight up and down. You can mount the phone in portrait mode or hit menu and can change to landscape mode. I find the camera option does not work in portrait mode and only in landscape mode. Most camera's record in landscape mode and i think that is why the app does that. Well it also says to mount it in landscape mode for camera recording in the instructions with it. It works great on my G2 phone. Cant wait to get into the my drag car and see what kind of G's Im pulling.

Take it easy
