Yi Home

View and talk through YI cameras

Yi Home is a companion app for YI-connected cameras. It lets you watch a camera’s live video and audio on your phone, and use two-way audio to speak to someone near the camera. It suits people who already use YI camera equipment and want to check in on a room, family member or pet remotely.

Look around and receive alerts

For supported cameras, you can pan the view from the app. The reference information also describes motion detection: a camera can send an alert to Yi Home when it detects movement. These functions depend on compatible YI hardware, so the app alone does not provide camera monitoring.

What the listing tells you

Yi Home is listed in Lifestyle and is developed by Kami HK. It has more than 5 million installs and 372,841 ratings, with an average rating of about 2.72 out of 5. That is a low score across a substantial number of ratings, so it is worth weighing user feedback before relying on the app for regular monitoring.

Costs, ads and phone access

The supplied information does not say whether Yi Home contains advertising, offers paid features or requires a subscription. It also does not specify which phone permissions the app requests. Check the current Google Play listing and permission prompts for those details before deciding. The app’s usefulness depends on having compatible YI devices, and the available facts do not establish what features or services may involve additional costs.
