nuts
multiple clicks to close a bunch of ads, to view important security alerts, is absolutely sinister

1 Star — DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!
I strongly recommend NOT buying this system.
When I purchased the hardware, there were no restrictions like this. The app worked well at first, but about three years ago, they introduced forced full-screen advertisements.
Now, whenever I open the app to check my cameras, I am forced to watch a long advertisement before I can access the camera feed. There is no way to skip it.
This is completely unacceptable for a home security camera. What if there is an emergency and I need to immediately check on my home, my family, or a potential security issue? I should be able to see my camera immediately, not wait for an advertisement to finish.
The advertisement takes over the entire screen and completely blocks access to the camera. This is far worse than apps that simply display a small ad at the top or bottom.
A security camera app should prioritize security—not advertising revenue.
Very disappointing. I would not recommend Kimi Home to anyone.

Enough of the ads
I brought into yi very early on and have raved about them to people ever since. I am now replacing all my yi cameras because the ads have become so intrusive I simply can’t use the cameras for the purpose they exist now. I’ve just noticed another new feature that’s stops me watching my live view for any more than 30secs. Absolutely money grabbing and I will now be looking to replace all my Yi products.
Developer Update:- I’ll never be back, I’ve fully replaced all yi cameras, adds are one thing, inability to use the cameras because of them is unacceptable.

Used them for over 10 years. Time to say bye.
I’ve been using the cameras way before Kami. I started with the Yii camera. Use both apps, but tell me how in order to view your camera say it’s an emergency, you have to watch an ad for security cameras that you pay for. I have had the prescription for over 10 years, but if I want to share a camera with a family member, they also have to have a subscription. OK, they can login with your account. Cool, but what if you only want them to see certain cameras?. it is ridiculous that a security camera app makes you watch ads. I have fought it. I have stood by them, but it’s time to call it quits it’s ridiculous
