Can not hook up with wifi

Problem connection with wifi plz fix it

Garbage app

Connecting device to phone/app never works when you need it to.

Much better than the official app

Don't use the normal yi app. They gouge you for data and force you to provide location services. Don't trust them. The app never used to work that way. Ruined my opinions on the company itself. Dride is a little buggy but works very well with my dash cam.

Hi! Have you selected the right model from the list?

Broken

Never got it to link to my Yi Compact. It just keeps doing the “connect to Yi camera” thing like the official Yi dashcam app. Now there is no way for me to download the video clips off the camera, other than to manually do it – remove the microSD card and stick it in a PC media reader. Frustrating!

Response from developer

Watermark isn’t removed

The app works (sometimes) but when saving video to phone it shows a progress bar that goes to 130% while saying “loading stickers”. Once video is exported, there’s an advertisement bar at top directing you to store your video on the app’s free cloud. I specifically disabled watermark in the settings yet it still puts it into my video. Kind of defeats the purpose.

Hi @deepsoul13, we're working on the 130% fix and will roll that out ASAP, Regarding the watermark, you've disabled the Yi watermark (That's a feature of the dashcam), in order to offer our service for free we're placing a watermark on top of your videos, removing this top bar will be available soon as a PRO feature. I would really appreciate if you could update your rank accordingly. Thanks

Warning: Do not use this website

Should have done more research. This is NOT the “official” dash cam app for YI, it’s a third party site. The app is very unreliable. Tech support is pretty much non-existent. Accessing videos has been impossible. The app “sort of” worked for just one day, and afterwards the video clips would not be accessible anymore. The screen would just perpetually buffer. The dash cam was fine initially but without a reliable app to access videos (even the direct manufacturer’s site is a waste of time) the camera is useless. Save yourself a headache. Don’t by a YI dash cam, and don’t download this Dride app. Huge waste of money, time, and energy.

We've fixed several bugs and made many improvements to the app, How about giving it a second look?

Great camera and loads to you’re phone

Wifi name change, doesn't work?

Is there an issue with using this app with a Yi Dash Cam after you change the wifi ssid name? I can't get it to connect.
