### 1/5 — Extrem viel Werbung

*2026-08-24*

Ich habe nichts dagegen, wenn hier und da Werbung geschaltet wird, aber es wird bei dieser App einfach übertrieben. Zudem erfindet diese App alles an Problemen um dir ein Abo zu verkaufen z.b. soll angeblich meine SD Karte nicht mehr funktionieren, habe diese versucht zu erneuern und zu formatieren aber nach 1, 2 Tagen das selbe Problem. Ich werde die Kameras gegen andere austauschen und diese App endgültig löschen. Nie wieder, und dafür habe ich auch noch Geld bezahlt.

### 1/5 — Adware.

*2026-08-18, version 4.9.3*

The app is hijacked by ads. When starting or accessing the app, you’ll be inundated and delayed by timed ads. You’d better not be faced by emergency or any sense of immediacy 

Once in the app, every tap done in effort to access your video will result in a pop up urging you to subscribe to their service.

### 1/5 — Charges

*2026-08-18, version 4.9.3*

Big confusion on charges. Reached out via email due to trying to charged multiple times in one month. Sent in proof no response. The customer service isn’t clear on where to purchase subscriptions being that it’s an option to pay through app/Apple account but was told to purchase from direct website.

### 5/5 — works good

*2026-08-15, version 4.9.2*

works good no ads

### 1/5 — Terrible customer service

*2026-08-15, version 4.9.2*

I have tried to cancel my subscription since June and have requested my account not be charged and all I get from the automated reply is they want to offer me free months or the option to pause my subscription. After I was charged AGAIN in July, I sent another message to cancel my subscription only to get the same automated message.  I said I did not want to pause my subscription and to stop charging me.  This is August- 3 months from my initial cancellation request and they dinged me AGAIN for the monthly fee!  My debit card expires next month so maybe that’s the only way I can actually get this to stop!  This is a scam….

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-08-13, version 4.9.2*

Never picks up big things like cars but always notices a moth. Constantly trying to get you to upgrade despite already paying for a subscription. Don’t waste your money

### 1/5 — Реклама

*2026-08-12*

Самое полохое приложение!!!! Сплошная реклама. От флешек запись типо отваливается хотя в другом приложении все работает!

### 1/5 — Good Cameras Ruined by Forced Ads

*2026-08-12*

I used to think the Kami app was good, which is why I bought six Yi/Kami cameras. Unfortunately, the experience has gone downhill.

Now the app forces users to watch video ads, even though we already paid for the cameras. At the same time, the app itself has barely improved in years. The features and functionality remain largely unchanged, and the overall user experience is not good.

It is very disappointing to buy multiple cameras and then have advertising forced into an app that is required to use the products.

Based on my experience, I would not recommend buying Yi or Kami cameras or other products.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your evaluation. If you have any suggestions or if you are facing any problems, please contact us at https://store.kamihome.com/pages/contact. We will try our best to help you out.

### 1/5 — Horrible app that wants your money

*2026-08-12, version 4.9.2*

There’s not even a button that lets you unsubscribe the service, and every time you contact support to cancel the subscription, you get an idiot response that tries to convince you to keep the service. I’m contacting apple to investigate in this. It’s against federal law to not provide customer a direct button to unsubscribe from the service. Horrible app!

### 1/5 — NO LIVE  CUSTOMER SERVICE AND  APP SUCKS !!!

*2026-08-12, version 4.9.2*

App sucks  and  all these payments  plans    My camera act weird and  don’t  work  I try to reach them and they always  says  try restarting  your  device I had  problems before with them  charging  me  twice or three times without approving payment  so make sure  not to leave card  info on there.  Live  view  away from home does not work  even if  you play subscription . Please don’t waste  money  on this  company !!!!
