1.0 out of 5 starsThey have BUG in the set up which will prevent u from using it!!!
Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2019
I didn’t got a chance to use the camera and had to return it.
During the set up, it ask u to connect to a WiFi, to be specific, a 2.4 GHz radio frequency private network. My att router combine both the 2.4GHz and the 5GHz network by sharing the same name and SSID. I then tried two things and FAILED:
1. Configured the network separately with different name and password, then connect my phone to the 2.4GHz one.
2. Enabled the guest network which only supported with 2.4GHz and connect my phone to this guest network.
With the above means, the app still prompting back and forth asking me to connect to the WiFi while disabling the beneath form where u can manually select a WiFi network.
I am sure the camera should be good but this set up app just shut the door to further using.
Just to mentioned here, I work in IT industry and I know how these network works and know what I was doing and how to verify if I am on the right step following the manual.
Last piece of advice for who’s going to buy the Yi Camera 3: DON’T before they make official announcement that they fixed this bug!!!
Very disappointing on the app quality!
