Enjoying bury missing features. I really love that I can watch my son from any room and talk to him through this camera. It looks great and I am able to hear him, however I would have like the volume to be higher on the receiving end. I often have to turn it up on my phone all the way to ensure I can hear him. If it had not been for the alerts I may not know he’s crying due to the low volume. Also I’m not sure if this works on an iPad but since I don’t have a monitor this would be a great addition so I can constantly view the feed. Please add ASAP!!!

SUPER LAGGY. It takes minutes to load at times, always at least 20-30 seconds which is NOT ideal for urgent situations. Many times that’s all that is needed for my son to fall out of his crib since I was waiting for the camera to load/connect. I’ve had this camera and app for more than 3 months and I’m really disappointed with how much money I put in to it (over $100, for the camera and cloud plan with all the “features”). At first, I loved the design and the idea of it all until I quickly realized how slow it runs, thus causing more stress. At that, it does not keep recordings from all times so when I need to playback something and it does not register or acknowledge there was movement I will not be able to view what exactly happened. It has potential but it not what it says unfortunately.

Horrible Customer Service. Stay far away from Kami and Yi home. The cameras are not that good. They hardly ever capture motion. Good luck with customer service because nobody’s ever available on live chat and nobody’s ever available when you try calling. If you decide to cancel the easiest thing to do is just go and remove your credit card and block them with your bank from charging you because you’ll never get responses from them and they won’t follow through.

Security for whole apartment. Pros: Started with kami baby and ended up getting the doorbell too. I love having the baby monitor and entryway camera on the same app. Baby monitor is AWESOME especially the breathing check option. no complaints. Cons: sometimes the app lags or you have to close it out and reopen it. And the doorbell sometimes misses video like when we come home for example. But it's peace of mind and better than nothing maybe i need to do an Apple update or something

Love the new UI and features. I use 4 different Kami and Yi cameras at home to augment my security system. Love the 6s quick alerts that it sends and also allows me to watch full videos. I like to watch the different rooms, front and back when I travel to see how the house and plants are doing. Like the new UI with single page for alerts and videos. The home/away mode function is a bit unclear, would like to get even fewer alerts when I am home.

Really good Security Camera. I really enjoy the video quality and sound of this camera. The app has some pretty versatile options although I’m sure it could run a bit faster. All in all it gets the job done. Would like to see more options or plans for video storage.

Hands free failing to work. When I downloaded the Yi home it worked then after a year stopped working called customer service they asked me to upload kami app which made everything work great until a month ago that the app did some type of update and now the hands free doesn’t work. Which is one of the reason I got the cameras because I was able to talk to my mom which has dementia. I tried to call the customer service and they never answer.

I think it used to be good , now as May 2023 , it’s not good at all !!. I have Yi home or Kamy camera as they are called now for almost 8 years . For 8 years I didn’t have problem opening the app to see my cameras , may be minors here and there because of no internet connection or whatever , but it never had me waiting for more than 30 seconds for a failing to open the app . I’m so so disappointed of the app right now . I have tried opening it the app fro differents , uninstalling and installing again , logging in and out several times , but still failed to open .

Keep Taking Away Features. Used to love and recommend these cameras! Started with Yi outdoor cameras with audible motion alarms. These had built in AI to try and filter out only human detections. Kept adding now up to 8 both inside and outside. One update removed the ability to view more than one feed. Forcing you to pay for the cloud! I don’t need it! I have 256gb cards In all of them! Then they killed the ability for the outdoor cameras to detect people in the AI again forcing you to pay! It reverts to any motion! I tried the cloud trial and it’s useless anyway. The audible beeping alarms sound at every shadow and bug flying by! The new firmware that detects humans, animals and cars merely filters those items to only alert your phone to those items! However it beeps at every single movement of anything! Was a great feature to let someone know that they are being watched. Now the audible alarms are all turned off because the beeping all day and night drives everyone nutz! Used to be a great company and now they are gearing towards subscriptions and refuse to address issues to make the cameras better! Find another brand!!!!

Does a Decent Job, Room for Improvement. I move a lot for work and have had several different doorbell cameras. The camera provides quality recording, but the motion sensor leaves a bit to be desired. It will pick up a car driving by on the street, but doesn’t start recording when a person is walking up my walkway until they ring the doorbell. I wake up most mornings to numerous motion detection notices that, so far, seem to be cars driving by in the dark, or I have ghosts that hang out on the front porch. I’ve tried adjusting the Detection Areas and Detection Range to no avail. If it hadn’t been free with my subscription to a monitoring plan I would have returned it.

Can’t activate my subscription plan. I just purchased a Kami outdoor security camera. This camera is replacing my old wired yi camera. The camera said it comes with 30 day free cloud service I activated the free service plan but it says select camera to connect the plan to and it won’t let me select the camera it stays gray. I then tried to purchase the paid service plan upfront for $9.99 and the same thing happened it wouldn’t let me select a Camera to use. Now I have a free plan and a paid plan running concurrently for 30 days. I contacted customer support and still waiting for a response. Otherwise, the camera is easy to hook up and the picture quality is very good.

Buggy. Update: As of the latest version of the app on Mar. 3, 2020 (with the redesigned UI), the “new alert” dot no longer persists after viewing the alert, so that’s good. Notifications for the alerts now seem to appear promptly, so that’s even better. However, now the Home/Away setting doesn’t work. Upon returning home and switching the app to Home, the camera remains on and sends alerts when I enter the room. I have to go into the settings for the camera and manually switch it off. This is not a big inconvenience compared to tapping the Home button, but users should be aware that your camera may not be monitoring the house unless you manually turn it on, since tapping Away does not activate it (at least for me). Old review: I don’t have the issues that other reviewers have mentioned, however the app constantly tells me that there are alerts to view (by placing a dot over the Alerts button) when there are no new alerts. Sometimes tapping Alerts clears the dot and sometimes it takes more tries before it finally goes away. The bigger issue is that push notifications simply don’t work. I’ve only received one notification from the app, and it was days after the actual event where the camera noticed movement. With a delay like that, the camera cannot be used as an alarm for the home owner, only as an after-the-fact record of what happened (assuming that someone doesn’t unplug the camera and take it before it uploads its footage!).

Broken service, broken company. This app and service is the definition of unreliable. Major things like recording motion will just stop working for weeks at a time. Support is never any help. I finally canceled my paid options because they never worked and had to file a dispute with PayPal to get my money back after support refused to refund me despite not providing the service I had paid for. This is a shady company that simply doesn’t have the capabilities they promise.

1 star is being nice. It’s a bad camera system you can’t get technical help from nowhere you can’t get help on the app when you buy a subscription to the cloud you can’t get help I just do not recommend this product you can’t get help nowhere they won’t call you there’s no numbers to call geez I can’t believe these are even on the market the batteries run down fast and then when you charge it back up you have to re-establish to your Internet

Easy to use. I enjoy our home monitoring system in place through the Kami cameras and online streams. Able to watch home from a far and get notification of packages and mail delivered and left alone safely until we can pick up. Easy set up and easy connections to install to net and get it going. Yes I recommend the products. Only reason not 5 stars is I’ve had 2 of the cameras go off online and not connecting after so they was replaced but yet to do it again so we’ll see

Get ready to be scammed DO NO BUY!!. I purchased 4 cameras over the past year. They were inexpensive and worked well. The interface with my phone made it easy to monitor when I traveled. However Kami has pulled the scam. Now the Cameras don’t work unless I pay the annual fee of close to $150 each!!!! This was never disclosed up front. Beyond angry. Shame on me, I fell for the bait and switch. From low cost to bend over. They have collected a lot of data on me. Unless you like being scammed I strongly suggest you NOT use this product.

Works great and covers wide angles. The Kami camera system works great for my needs. The interior cameras can be located and configured to see areas and send alerts. The doorbell camera doesn’t connect quickly enough to use as a regular doorbell but records movement for later reviews if needed.

Great product! Tedious Setup though.. This is probably the best camera I’ve found, it’s got some very fun and neat features like the fish eye lens, active phone movement to look around the field of view, and the mic for talking to the dog when we’re out. If it wasn’t for the long and tedious setup, I’d put a full 5 stars. I’m no bill gates but I’ve setup my share of security systems before, but this one was the most stressful. But WELL worth the stress once it’s done.

Lots of great features, one big flaw. While this app is a big improvement - the one sole issue - being able to play from the localized memory card - is not working well. With this feature unavailable to see past days, the app is defaulted to be a 6 second player and for camera configuration. While performance improvements are clear - being able to play past days from the localized memory would make this easily a 5 star app.

What used to be an excellent product has been destroyed by ads. I have a total of 12 cameras through YI Home. I’m in the process of throwing all of them away due to the most intrusive ads I’ve seen on a security camera ever. Such a shame. I used to recommend these cameras to everyone looking for reliable and good value. I will no longer do that. I should have listened to everyone who kept saying this company is not to be trusted. A full page ad with full volume is beyond trashy even for a company that provides inexpensive cameras.

Always been a peace of mind. Having these cameras at my house and also my grandmothers has brought so much peace to me when I’m not home and able to check on my dog kids. After my grandmas house got robbed a few year ago I put a camera in her home and to be able to know I can always have an extra eye to watch out on her is amazing! Thanks Kami Home

Pretty useful but can be expensive for what you get. On top of buying the cameras need to pay to have more than a single camera on your account. Can’t look at both cameras at the same time. Maybe add multitasking mode to have two app instances open to at least see two cameras

It was better. I pay for their service and after the last update, camera notifications are too slow. I’m downstairs and one of my kids will let themselves in and I won’t get a notification until they’re inside. Usually about a minute later which is too late if it’s supposed to be a security alert. I want to know before someone is in my house, not after. It was instant before. Now there’s a long lag and sometimes no alert at all.

Buy another brand. If you’re going to delay the viewing of my cameras with ads, then the cameras should be free. I do not appreciate displaying ads for cameras I’ve paid for. By the time I get through the ads, the event for the alert I’ve received has already passed. I am scared for not being able to view critical events right away, where each second counts. Update: And their response is to offer a discount on their premium subscription to remove the ads. What a shake-down! My Kasa and Tapo cams are ad free and works the same way. Buy those instead. (Sort the reviews by most recent and you’ll see how these cams used to be good. Now they are just money hungry. Yi and Kami are the same company so don’t buy Yi cameras either unless you want the same headache dealing with ads.)

The app doesn’t work correctly. The app doesn’t work correctly. Since last year that they started to do update on the app it hasn’t been the same. Cameras stop working on their own and then fix themselves sometimes on their own or it just doesn’t work. Sad I might have to find another brand I have 19-21 cameras and have gotten so many family and friends to buy the and they worked great for year and now they don’t work like they used to.

Overstuffed. I’ve had the camera in operation for probably 4-5 months. Battery life is excellent. Still have problem with camera not activating quickly enough after several adjustments. Sometimes cannot get identifiable shot of quickly moving subject. As for notifications, sometimes they mysteriously turn themselves off. In spite of the limitations, I was planning on purchasing another one for my garage. However, the big-box home improvement store I bought this one at has stopped selling them, which tells me something.

No Time & Date Stamp. In addition to it being buggy off and on (especially off WiFi, the settings have to be just right)... There’s no time stamp. And if you are recording off WiFi and pull the micro SD, the time is completely off on all the windows and frames. It will say 11PM and be middle of the daylight. If they could figure out a way to put a time AND date stamp option on the screen, for both on and off WiFi, I think this would bump it to 4 or 5 star for me. When you record something, especially if it is legally involved, you NEED time and date stamps. Will upgrade my review if this happens.

Great!. I love my Kami home camera. I am using it for a monitor in my daughter’s room. My only issue with the app is that when I click on “cloud” to view earlier events, I cannot seem to get back to the live view without quitting out of the app and going back in. Not a huge deal but kind of annoying. (Could also be user error but I just can’t figure out how to do it!)

God send!. Great quality. I got the 15 day plan. The only thing I wish was different was even tho it record 24/7 that it would still do like a motion detector so if your looking for a specific thing. U have a better time frame to find it. But all in all yu can still find it. Just takes a lil more time some times. But it was a god send when someone broke in my house with a gun on me.

Kami baby monitor app fatal flaw. The app does not have a “background audio on” functionality, which other baby monitor apps/devices do have. The Nanit app lets you lock your iphone and/or use other apps while leaving the camera’s audio playing in the background. Thus to monitor your baby you have to stay on the app and stop your phone from locking/turning off. Also some error messages show up in Chinese instead of English.

Vaporware with hardware purchase. The app itself ok, acceptable interface. I purchased four webcams and now find this app is constantly pitching the monthly service. Multicam view doesn’t work without a subscription. Editing doesn’t work without a subscription. This feels really crappy as I spent over $100 on hardware that I think should come with a fully functional app. That’s what I expected. ***Update*** Got a stupid “oh no” developer response but contacting them doesn’t fix the problem of course. Not being able to see these cams via a web browser without paying a monthly fee is not a bug, it’s a feature. There is no point in buying these web cams unless you are willing to pay a monthly fee forever to get features expected on any web cam. See it’s called a ‘webcam’ because it’s supposed to WORK OVER THE WEB. Yours could be called ‘purposefully impotent horrible system that requires an expensive subscription to make basic functions work.’

Don’t waste your money. I bought this camera for our baby’s nursery monitor. It worked great for a long time and I even recommended it to several other families. Now, all of a sudden recently I have to watch adds before I can open the camera to see my child. Some of the adds aren’t even in English so I have no idea how to skip through. I wish I had bought something else and probably will. I shouldn’t have to suddenly pay of subscription. That’s not how this device was advertised in the first place.

Unreliable. I’ve written to customer support twice on this issue with no actual help from them. I have the battery powered outdoor Kami camera. It was easy to setup and shows a great image. However we have had no success in capturing motion at our house. Our son who walks out of the front door where the camera is posted and down to the mailbox. He is only on camera opening the front door upon his return. We have had multiple people walk on to our property only to be captured after standing at the front door for a period or time. This camera doesn’t have a “zone” and I’m not sure what makes it pick up some images. We have played with the settings and even have it set for the highest alerts. Today it missed my son walking to the front door until the door was opened beneath the camera. Yet, it showed the large fedex truck driving away earlier this afternoon. I don’t understand. We have a full charge on the batteries, an SD card installed and have adjusted the settings multiple times. I have had this camera less than 1 month. We only got this camera because we loved our indoor Yi camera. This Kami wireless camera is junk!! I’m sending this back for a refund immediately.

Subscribe to remove ads. I’ve been using this company for 10 years. From Yi to Kami. I have over 8 cameras…..until they started charging monthly for things that were advertised to come with the camera (person, sound recognition). NOW! There’s ads?!!! I’m done! You’ve officially gotten greedy like the rest of the tech world. Eve Home products are where it’s at. Deleted my Kami account.

DARK MODE. Please allow the app to utilize the Dark Mode feature of iOS. When checking a camera at night, the app is extremely bright with the white background. Also, for a security app, you should assume that your users may have an urgent need to view their camera. Instead of getting to launch the app and quickly load my camera, I must first click through an advertisement for one of your services or devices before I can get to my camera.

Please update the app and camera firmware!. You get a notification that motion detects. You tap on the notification and brings you to the camera. Camera says no sd card available... You go back to live view. Stuck at 1% loading for 10 seconds. Stuck at 99% for additional 10 seconds. Sometimes fails completely and I have to unplug the power and plug it back in... if there was an actual intruder. I’d be dead already. Loading times need to be fixed. Note: I am on fiber optic network with nighthawk router. My old wyze cam loads faster than kami... I jumped over to kami for the 30 day cloud 24/7. I like the cameras starlight night vision. Only works if there is slight ambient light. The app needs serious improvement. It should not take longer than a library computer to boot up.

Some good, some very good and some not so much.. I’ve been using Yi cameras for a few years. I had two of the minis and have just recently expanded to a dome cam, some more minis and a couple wireless indoor cameras. I’ve had great luck with the minis in fact I have just signed up for cloud service which I never had before. However, the indoor wireless camera refuses to pair properly. I’ve gone over and over with customer service trying to get it rectified. At this point I am asking to return the one indoor wireless camera that isn’t working in exchange for a new one that hopefully will. They have been very willing to work with me, but I disappoint it’s just a waste of time. Should I receive a new camera that works I will come back and edit this review.

Not working right anymore. App is no longer showing previews or back play. I contacted support and they wanted to place blame on my router - yet, this is a “known issue”. The live stream works just fine - but my router is the issue. I deleted all cameras and reinstalled and for ten mins the app was working properly. After ten mins it reverted back to no longer allowing me to use the playback feature or to see a screenshot on the “activity” tab. Hopefully they resolve this issue sooner than later or I will be demanding a refund on all four cameras and taking my business elsewhere.

Dishonest company. Don’t trust with your business. I will never do business with this company again. This is their response after sending in all of the requested documentation for a dead camera 3 months after purchase. “Thank you for contacting Kami customer support. We are very sorry that we cannot issue a refund/replacement... We're very sorry but we're unable to help.” Horrible horrible dishonest support. My product even says it comes with a 1 year warranty. 0 care or effort to fix the defective camera. Stay away.

Kami or Yi Home app?!. Both Kami and Yi Home apps are the same. Both are Turing to claim the firmware needs updated for all my cameras. The current firmware is for 2020 and 2019. The update they’re trying to make me install is from 2018! Both apps only allow me to see alerts, scroll thru ale arts and doesn’t not allow me move the camera- there’s no controls anymore!?!?! The Yi IOT app works perfect and shows the firmware is up to date on all my devices. Because of this issue, I’m sending back 6 cameras I’ve recently purchased.

Amazing app experience. I have multiple Kami cameras and it is a great app experience. The SD card functionality works very well and there is no pay wall to use it. There are so many good features in the app. I especially like the low latency so when I go to live view I am actually seeing what happens in real time. I have had more expensive cameras in the past and they did not work as well as the Kami cameras.

Simple and Effective Interface. I have now 3 different camera systems. All have their pluses and minuses. The Kami app is a nice mix of Cloud and memory card monitoring. Easy and quick ability to view past saved videos make this interface a really well done app.

Still having problems with the cloud playback. Can you help with this problem I use this app to make sure my family is safe every morning when I have to leave for work really early it lets me see they got into the vehicle safely and are on the way to start there day but now I can’t check on the because all it says is failed to load. Please help

App is quite good but…. I’ve had to reinstall the app because of communication issues, After using the app for several months it freezes in a loading screen and never comes up, the only solution is to reinstall the app. Same issue happens with the Kami app. Besides that everything is ok.

Still has some glitches!. Still has some glitches, like not recording or being able to see what just set off your camera. I’ve had a Yi camera for a few years now and I just bought two more. Overall, I’m happy with my purchases. One of the new cameras has a very low microphone sensitivity unlike my older one which is very loud and picks up outdoor sounds perfectly.

Broken and buggy and spammy. Edit: this app continues to abuse push notifications to send spam through the same channel as critical security alerts as of 11/23 This app abuses push notifications to send marketing spam you can’t opt out of, which is a violation of App Store policies. I frequently get notifications of motion, but when I go to load the video, it says that there is no video for that time. Sometimes it takes more than 5 minutes for the slow Kami Cloud to process videos, which defeats the purpose of a security camera. What am I even paying for?

Went from bad to worse!. Horrible app! The cloud service isn’t much better. The app will say you have one uploaded video and yet if you manually scroll through the day there are many captured videos. Don’t count on seeing the same thing twice in the saved videos however. I had to go back and capture an incident and even though I knew the time stamp it was no longer available. It was within an hour of it happening so it should still be stored in the cloud I pay for. I have had this service over 6 years and the quality has gone to crap.

Would rate zero stars if it were an option!. We have had nothing but problems with this monitor and app. We purchased a two pack and slowly, but surely neither of our cameras work anymore. The connection where the plug goes into the actual camera has gotten loose on both the monitors, and it no longer stays connected for longer than a few hours. So we have no idea when our child is awake or needs us. We absolutely wasted money on this! it’s constantly dropping the connection, the cable insertion point is not tight enough to stay put, the whole thing is terrible. Please don’t buy this!

Bait and switch, ads ads ads. I’ve purchased 6 of these cameras over the past 6 years. Great price. Good tech. I needed something that wasn’t cloud — these have SD card on the local device. App was good. I’ve recommended to many friends. NOW they’ve introduced ad videos on app startup to push you into a cloud subscription. I have these for my children in case of emergencies. I bought them because I could access my local memory. But now I have to watch ads before I can see if my children are ok. Remove the ads on startup now! This is ridiculous. These cameras are going in the trash and I will never buy from this company again!

Awesome Service!. I have worked with Kami for over eight years now. Anytime, rarely happens, that I have a question or need to buy a new plan, the staff who work at Kami are awesome! Very professional, know the products and have great ideas on how to save me money. Have to love that! 😊

Imran. Help full product I’m happy with it

Microphone doesn’t work. Only works on my phone, poor microphone support on ipad

Customer service is excellent. Customer service is great, the cameras work very well.

I just luv Kami/Yi. I have been thru so many camera brands over the years. About 2 years ago I purchased 2 Yi /Kami cameras I fell in love !! I bought 8 more to cover my whole house and since then it’s been my go to brand !!

Filled with ads. I purchased 7 Kami cameras for my house. Overall, I found them to be decent products for the price. The app was generally good, though occasionally unreliable. While I understand the introduction of paid cloud plans, what truly bothers me is the multiple ads pushed on the app. These ads are not related to the cloud services they sell, but random ones, which is frustrating as we bought their hardware.

Fast and easy to use. Recommended 100%

Great monitoring by Kami. Cameras are very well designed waterproof and you can mount them outside. Product came well packaged and with good instructions just like apple products.

Such easy installation.. Didn’t even crack the instruction Manuel. Just plugged it in & followed app prompts.

HomeKit. Please include HomeKit support it would make things so much better and easier.

Last update. After the last update, the app has been buggy and I am not able to pair a new camera. I always get failed to gather information or that an email was sent to my inbox to confirm but I don’t receive anything

There’s annoying ads now when you open app.. It very good back then when just started buying their cameras. It was nice that they have different types of indoor camera and an outdoor camera and have them connected in one app. Then ads started to show in the app and in the newest app update, you have to wait for the ad to finish or “x” button to close app is in obscured. Quite annoying. I tried their cloud service for a year and it does not record or upload everything. It would say no video uploaded to icloud so I stopped subscription and just use microSD card storage. Now ads are annoying. I’m looking to switch to a different camera system, but it works for our need for now.

Kami app. App consistently freezes it also doesn’t recognize that you have a cloud account

Full screen ads is unacceptable. Full screen ads when you open the app only makes it sure that I will never buy any of your products ever again.

Picture freezes. Viewing camera, camera freezes

Good app even with multiple cameras. Easy setup and intuitive to use. Connected to my Kami camera and automatically detected a second camera that was using the older Yi IoT app. Would like to be able to view all cameras at the same time without a paid subscription. But that’s not big detractor.

Nice app. Easy to use nice app

Latest update blanked it.. Here’s the solution: delete the app and reinstall. All good again. I like both hardware and software. Camera has sd slot to record. Just have to buy card. Fair enough; i can live with that.

LOVE. Super easy to setup! Not only is it perfect for security purposes, but I’m able to watch over my cat while at work.

Cannot working. Always stay loading statue

广告烦死了. 差差差

Cam. Is absolutely everything I want

Configuration et utilisation facile. J’aime l’application pour regarder mes 3 caméras.

Junk. Once upon a time the YI line of cameras and app were decent…. Reliable …..easy to use. Now they are the complete opposite….. app is junk..::: accessibility is garbage….. the whole YI/Kami product line and app need to be re-thought from the ground up. If the problems continue any longer I’ll be posting a video on YouTube on my Christmas holidays of me lining up my YI cameras as I set them on fire and shoot them with my gun !!! I promise !!

Bioshock Q. Excellent

New update Sep 2021. The new update is very slow, when click on the camera, it only opens 40 seconds later very long. Comparing to before, where it only takes 5-6 sec. Please fix. Also when you go back of more than 2 days, the timeline still jumps around...unstable

Thanks for fixing the issue with motion detection. Was disappointed by previous update, but thanks for fixing it

Ads galore. Full screen ad when you first open the app. Push notification ads for constant sales.

Don’t like the Bot. Don’t like the Bot. It doesn’t give specific help related to your questions

Works. It works however there is a pretty significant delay between the activity and the alert you receive. My doorbell will ring before I get a notification that someone has come up my driveway

Good system. Not perfect,but very close to it, need a little better notification system.

Home. Works amazing clear sound n pictures

Thanks. Works good , I’m just having a hard time seeing more then 6 secs of recordings. I have the subscription and I can see it’s recorded though it won’t let me view more than 6 seconds. Very frustrating

Annoying.. Ongoing issue of cloud playback not playing off of WiFi. Very inconvenient.

Zazoo. Excellent

This app is still crap. I was using the Yi Home app and was having problems with it. Contacted support and was told to use Kami Home, same credentials, yadi yadi yada. It is also the same problems. I can’t even login because it gives me an “Invalid Data Format” error. C’mon Kami, do better and fix it!!!

Awesome. Affordable, good quality and CVR

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Awful app and system. App frequently does not connect to baby camera. Account gets disconnected with no way of resolving issues. Poor support and overall experience. Worst of all they’ve started showing ads as soon as you login. Talk about bait and switch. I’m surprised this company is still able to sell products in the US.

So far so good. These cameras, have a very easy set up. Picture quality looks very good. I have yet to sign up for the cloud service. I imagine they probably have cordless ones as well… These were given to us. They seem fine. Bill

No sweep-scan function, but easy install. I am disappointed that the camera is stationary and that there is no way to sweep right and left. But I am very pleased with how easy the app is to navigate/ control and add csmeras.

Why 3?. Even at lowest settings I constantly get alerts for moths or wasp flying by. Also my Kami outside camera gives “person detected” and it saw my lab pup, or my grill cover flapping in the wind, or a cat going around the grill. App works most of the times when viewing an alert.

One of the Best home and office security solutions!. The cameras work flawlessly and the include AI features would cost thousands from other brands. You really can’t go wrong with Kami and their constantly evolving and improving indoor & outdoor lines! 5/5!

The adds are not a good idea. I font like the adds. I bought this camera it is not free. Why did you change it now. I had this for more that a year and i was happy. Now it so difficult to go in the app fast. It take a while to open because of the add. I really dont like it now.

Finally.. They seem to solve the problem. My cameras are now working properly. They’re finally recording motion when set to AWAY. But I’m not ready to invest more in this company yet. Have to wait and see how well they preform in the coming months.

Locks up iPad. Locks up iPad where I can’t even restart my iPad with the “Power/Volume buttons”. Eventually, after unsuccessfully trying to shut down my iPad for a minute or two, it will eventually go back to locked main screen where I can go in and swipe close the app. App is up-to-date … not worth dealing with the constant frustration of inability to close the App. Keeping App up-to-date does NOT help this problem.

Hoping Things Improve. Received a response from the Kami team extending help... the app today was working well. I appreciate the effort so I'm tryimg the app again hoping I have no issues or at least less issues.

Stop removing functionality. Disappointing that the app provider keeps removing functionality and putting it behind a pay wall. Because of the change, I would tend to avoid this app and system. It’s very useful for whys I bought it for but disappointing that they remove functionality

Advertisements…. Deleted because of stupid advertising in latest update. Used to be good till they made the first thing you see some junk spam crap!! Stop telling people you’d like to offer your silly paid plan! If your going to make people watch your crap video do it AFTER they have seen what they came to see. It’s a security camera!!

Disconnects after 5 seconds. I’ve had this camera for 2 years and it never worked from day 1 so we gave up on it. Today I had the will to give it another chance, same issues occurred. It connected fine, worked for about 5 seconds, as soon as I walked into the house, could no longer connect. Stays at 1% and never loads. Total scam company.

Works good, too many ads. App works well and pairing the camera was fairly simple. My only complaint is the constant ads for premium services/subscriptions and that the free version of the app is very limited and designed to get u to pay to make the app/camera to work as advertised.

Great Security System. Have used these for years, highly recommend, being able to check property and see when packages have been delivered is great.

Good security and peace of mind. Happy to have these cameras. I first bought to watch over my mom when I wasn’t home as she was elderly. Now I use it for home security and it is a great product.

Do not buy. The camera work Great until someone just decides to walk up and steal your camera. The camera just twist into there holder. An Kami do not replace nor can track your camera. My camera batteries where dead which I called and complained to Kami about they refused to send me new batteries now my camera is stolen and I am receiving horrible customer service. I will not be buying these cameras Again. Complete waste of money.

Easy to use APP. I love this product and APP. I receive almost instant alerts when people walk into the field of view. I have peace of mind using it. Two thumbs up!

Good and bad together.. I bought two cams. Everything is great, but it missed a lot motion in between. Seller obliges you to buy their iCloud or you miss the about 10 minutes Gap after each motions detected. This means no use for the camera itself, since we used the cams for security, whatever happens in between you will never know. Why a cam that now record all. There are other systems records properly without iCloud.

Scammers!!. This company is just a total scam! Low up front cost, but camera AI is useless and if you don’t bend over for their predatory pricing you have to be bombarded with adds before you can view your camera’s. Plus completely do not trust that they are not are spying for the Chinese government… often find my camera’s active when I have them turned off.

Worst App EVER!!!!!. When the app finally loads it start with an add and then comes the cameras. Imagine you with an emergency and need to access the cameras as fast as possible, you have to wait for the app to load after various try and restarting the phone and when it finally loads you have to wait for an add. Just DONT BUY this cameras, there are better options.

Ads / Commercials. Was a great security camera till the last update. Now when you open up the app it shows an Add or commercial that you have to sit through then X it out to get to the Home Screen. If this continues I WILL THROW AWAY ALL 8 CAMERAS INTO THE TRASH And start fresh with ANOTHER CAMERA COMPANY. This Is How Annoying The Adds / Commercials are that I WILL Throw away hundreds of dollars of cameras and stop my Cloud subscription Fee.

Now junk. I own several Yi cameras and I have highly recommend them to others over the years, but whoever is in charge of updating this app will be taking this 500 company right down the drain. You can no longer see the top half of video. Looks like Yi had an awesome product for a long while, but now time to explore other systems as the cameras are junk with the horrible app interface.

Safer than safe. I love leaving my home in Kami’s capable hands. I get alerts anytime there’s movement. I love that I can access the cameras from different devices. Great purchase!!

Auto play when you click an alert. When you clicked an alert it used to automatically play the clip so you can see if you need to call emergency services. Now you have to look for the video. No good!! Slows the process. Could cost a loved one to be harmed or killed if not alerted in time!!!

Works great!. So much better than the Yi Home App which would constantly crash on me or not open. This app works like a dream - thank you!

Kami camera. These kamis are exactly what me and my family needed. The clarity and sound are great and the fact that I can buy extra and add them are perfect

Marginal. Frequently you cannot watch recorded clips (I’m not using cloud service). It has done this off and on for the last 30 days. Sometimes it will play and sometimes it won’t. It lists the motion based activity but will not play the clip. Also, camera is very slow to trigger so most likely you will miss whatever actually triggered the recording.

I love it but a few months ago. They stopped working and they would not Connect to anything

Best value. There are lots of other options for cameras and apps. For the money, Yi (Kami) are the best value I’ve found at a very good price. Bravo on the latest Kami app build (circa this review) FAST access to cameras. Once you figure out the nuances of Yi cameras, you can effectively add dozens of cameras and keep an eye on everything.

Solid app, very usable. The app is really intuitive and easy to use. The video quality is excellent. Glad I can keep an eye on my dogs when I'm away from home.

Where is this was wireless. The cords don’t stay plugged in very well and often times the cameras get unplugged just from the weight of the cord itself. Then they are not working, and I am away from home and don’t have a way to plug them back in.

Kami. Love the simplicity of setting up the camera. I love the way the camera revolves. I didn’t use the mount but rather sat it discreetly on an end table. I accidentally bought 2 so I will use or gift it .

Unreliable. Never works rights. Support never picks up calls. Online support shows videos that don’t help your issues. Because when you try, they don’t solve your issue’s. Videos don’t upload all the time. And the only thing that seem to work is live view. Which is no help if you can’t play back an event that set off an alert.

Awesome. Love the HD and I don’t have to worry about anything automatically records any movement even notifications pops up you know right away. Very secure 2 step verification added security cloud package very cheap unlimited storage.

Great, the updates have really helped out a lot. Nice to see that the company is going to stand behind their product

Bait and switch, suddenly introducing ads. Is this allowed? Used to enjoy the Kami app for its functionality. Now it suddenly forces you to watch ads, sometimes video and loud before each usage unless you pay. This was absolutely not what I signed up for, it feels like blackmail after investing in the equipment and app. Who knows what other change in terms they will invoke retroactively. Now searching for alternatives

Dissatisfied User. Bought the Indoor/Outdoor Camera a few weeks ago and worked fine for the first few days. Then all of a sudden camera lag missed people even entering the porches now I can’t even play the activity captured saying unable to play file. Contemplating returning them for a refund definitely not worth the money as of now.

Love this camera but…... Seriously love this camera. The only issue I have is the noises that you hear through the app when no one is in the room! I’m the only one in the house so I know no one is there eating chips, but that’s the sound coming through it…..

Great cameras and app!. Kami works better than expected. The quality of the videos are good and it’s been very reliable for our family.

Fantastic!. I just got three cameras installed to cover my backyard and the canal path behind my house, which has been a problem area for 20 years. Love them!

Outdoor camera. Great camera , picture quality on phone app and options and settings are great .

Top Notification. The devise works great Directions to set up a little hard to understand but after it’s set up wow 😮. Will secure more units to cover more area.

Latest update has commercials. They have totally screwed up the app by adding commercials. You don’t buy a security camera to have to watch commercials before viewing what’s being monitored. In most cases you are trying to see what’s happening now.

Very disappointed. Yi was working wonderful but until the last update it’s unbelievable, many ads always freezing not recording on memory, its not a good solution to force people to buy cloud storage I'm not going to do it i will look for other cameras rather than recording all my videos on cloud , and kami app is worse always freezing

Lost of my camera screen…. Why did u take some of my viewing off away on the 1st camera?? u have great viewing on the side view

Absolutely horrible support.. Cameras and app are great when they work which is 60% of the time. If they stop working, best of luck getting any kind of support. Phone support is nonsense as no matter the day or time you call the message states “ no one is here to answer” click’. As far as email, my average response time is 10 days after sending the same email 8 times. Hard pass on this company.

Sounds good. I don't have any, nevertheless I will have a couple soon. I come back and give you a better review then.

This app is HORRIBLE.. It worked great the first 24-36 hours I had it, now it says “Person Detection” and it’s my dog!! My house sitter has been in my house multiple times today, and not once did I get a notification saying “person detected.” The app also glitches and crashes. I do not recommend this app, or this camera brand.

Idk why. I have an awful time with the Wi-Fi connection and these cameras! Half the time my sound doesn’t work properly and the video is choppy due to the connection! Is there an update or something that could help fix my issue??

App doesn’t work. After the latest update where they tried to monetize app by introducing plugin adds every time you launch the app, the app stopped working completely. It freezes on the lunch screen with the kami logo. I am very disappointed with these ads before you start the app solutions. I was a user for more than two years, but not anymore. Not recommending it to anyone.
