Great camera, if you want to give access to your privacy! Camera platform functions well and video quality really is good considering the price point. Then I read the privacy policy!!! For some reason, I overlooked the reviews related to this prior to purchase. No thanks! There is specific language within the policy to allow permissions to view your video, track web usage and passwords, even related to social media accounts. YI advised they were changing this back in December of 2017. As of March 2018, nothing has changed within the privacy policy.
Information collecting machine for the Yi company This Camera WILL NOT WORK unless you give Yi access to all of your personal information, and a internet signal to use so they can download your video feeds even if you don’t use the cloud service. With in minutes of installing, the camera began sending back information on the wifi without permission or prompting, I thought the reviews saying that the company was collecting personal data were wrong however they seem to be totally true. There is absolutely no reason that this camera should not be able to work without a live internet connection.
Wait! Before you buy this camera… You should know that the Yi app, which is used to view both the live and recorded images, has become completely worthless. Alerts donât show up for hours. Sometimes days. Sometimes never. The app used to be great, but several months ago they did an update and since then, the cameras are only suitable for live viewing. No dependable way exists to see recordings. Read the reviews on the App Store before you commit your hard-earned money on a system that doesnât work any more.
