Can’t download video

Can’t download video on iOS 26, when will this OS be supported?

Have to connect manually every time

I’ve been using this car camera for a while now, and honestly, it’s been more frustrating than helpful. Every time I get into the car, I have to connect it manually — it doesn’t turn on or connect automatically like it should. This gets really annoying, especially when you’re in a rush.

On top of that, the date and time are never accurate. It resets frequently and doesn’t update automatically, so I constantly have to go into the settings to correct it. That defeats the purpose of having a dash cam for proper recording and evidence.

Overall, it’s not user-friendly and lacks the basic automation features you’d expect. Not recommended unless you’re okay with setting it up from scratch every single time.

App crash

App can not use to download any more. It crash after open app

It actually connected to the app in 2024

I have been using a Yi dash cam for a few years. The app has been working since day one. Lately (2024 October) I was checking if i can connect to the app again before a road trip. I was able to connect but you need to manually go to your phone’s WiFi and connect the dash cam. Tips: You can’t rely on the automatic prompt feature anymore and you need to manually connect it.

If you can’t see the videos from the app’s album, just format the sd card. I did it on my pc and I believe the dash cam also have an option. Just do both and now you will be able to see the album’s recorded videos.

This app doesn’t deserve a 2 stars so if you find it helpful, consider rating this app again.
