User reviews

La loi Française, interdit de changer les termes d’un contrat, sans en avertir le consommateur !

Envoyer des notifications d'alerte fausses (« mouvement détecté » qui n'en est pas une) pour me pousser vers de la pub:
c'est un aggravement du problème.
Les notifications à des fins publicitaires sont de la prospection électronique non sollicitée, elles exigent mon consentement préalable, de fausses alertes de sécurité pourraient même être qualifiées de démarchage trompeur.
L'argument « l'app est gratuite, on peut en faire ce qu'on veut » ne tient pas: la gratuité n'est pas réelle, j’ai payé le matériel dont la valeur tient à cette app.
C'est le même raisonnement qui a permis à la DGCCRF de sanctionner des éditeurs ayant verrouillé des fonctionnalités après achat !!!
Je suis maintenant dans l’obligation de désinstaller mes caméras, suite aux publicités incessantes sur l’application, en espérant pour votre société qu’il n’y ai pas jurisprudence, sinon, il va vous falloir rembourser pas mal de consommateurs !
Être obligé en 2026 de prendre un abonnement, sinon on est inondé de pub pour des jeux et autres, juste pour voir si tout va bien chez moi, et lorsque je reçois une alerte:
c’est l’application me l’envoie pour me faire regarder de la publicité.
Je n’ai pas payé des caméras pour être moi-même commandé par des annonces publicitaires !
Je vais aller voir chez la concurrence et votre grosse arnaque va être suivie avec cette note pour mes Follower, qui eux même feront suivre cette mention: APPLICATION YI HOME:
ATTENTION, EN 2026, PUBLICITÉ OBLIGATOIRE ET EN CONTINUE !

Ads make the app unusable

The free account that was promised as part of the camera purchase is almost unusable due to ads.

USED TO BE BETTER

Used to be better and now you have these pop up ads that get in your way when you try and check your cameras. So sad when you think you have a good company and they sellout.

Unusable ad-filled garbage

Don’t buy an YI camera. The app has gotten worse and worse over the years with more in-your-face ads. It’s nearly impossible to use it because of constant popup ads now.

Worst updates

YI home is forcing everyone to use their subscription by showing advertisements without close button. Let me see if i can go legally.
Showing advertisements is fine, but do not giving option for customers to close the ad after watching the ad is not good.
