ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Yi iot + holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Yi iot + has 912 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of SportCAM's written reviews are positive against 9% of Yi iot +'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SportCAM ships an update every 2 months, Yi iot + every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
