Useless App
Wifi won’t connect to iPhone app. I tried all available tips in the internet but nothing worked. They should take this app out from the App Store coz the developers don’t care anymore and don’t want to update it! I would avoid buying yi action camera from now on. They really thought ignoring this app issue won’t affect their sales! Well, I already sold mine and went back to GoPro!XRManny
App hasn’t been updated in a year
Is a great camera to record 4K videos and if you’re not into livestream or controlling the camera with your phone, this might be a great option for you, unfortunately the app hasn’t been updated in more than a year, it seems that Xiaomi doesn’t care anymore about the app and the connectivity of the camera.William Castro
If only I could give it a zero.
Camera was purchased for Facebook live. That never worked from the beginning 3 years ago. Up until a few month’s ago, no issues linking to phone. Now, nothing works. The camera and app will go straight to the trash after softball season which is a shame because the camera takes excellent videos but is otherwise useless.YiAppDevelopersNeedNewJobs
Call the exterminator, this app has lots of bugs in it!
Although the Yi developers had some great innovative ideas for the action cam app, It has many bugs in it. It also freezes often especially when running 2.7 k or 4 k videos. Also camera to phone WiFi has a tendency to disconnect even within 5 ft of the camera. Several other bugs to list... not to mention you get Chinese character messages popping up sometimes. The user should be able to read only 1 language of choice.
developers should’ve spent more time on testing the app and fixing bugs. They obviously did not hire top-notch programmers.Cafeboy77
YI will no longer support the App/Action Camera
In case no knows, Yi Tech will no longer support the app or the Action Camera, so don’t expect anymore updates to the app. Such bad support for a great camera. Smh.. Here is the press release I found online.
“At this moment in time, we are pausing active development on all YI Action Cam products and the YI Action App. We do not a fixed date when updates will resume, and we apologize for the inconvenience.”Baseball guy101216
Updated for iOS 13
Took too long for app update. But now my yi 4K cam works over wifi on my iPhone se. I will be more cautious of updating my iOS version after making sure it doesn't break compatibility with the app in the future.App Reviewer42
Looks like they fixed it for latest iOS!

App is garbage
This app hasn’t worked since iOS 13. Yi directs you to download the app through a link on their website, and manually verify in iOS settings. This worked up until 13.3.1, and now I have no remote control for my camera. I wish I had spent the extra 200 on a GoPro.Woppledorf
Camera not pairing
I don’t get it! I’ve deleted and re downloaded the app multiple times to try and trouble shoot this. The camera won’t pair with my phone. The WiFi changes to the camera’s wifi when prompted, but when I go back into the app it shows that I still need to connect and will redirect me back to my phone’s WiFi settings. I can’t get past the connect to WiFi page in the app. This is seriously frustratingcrabappletwo
Recent updates have broken pairing
As others have stated recent updates to OS 13.1.2 and later have broken pairing functionality. It worked quite well and I am just waiting on an update. Can not recommend this product until an update occurs which resolved the problems as it is unusable in the current state.J Stizzle
