YI Home for Mac

YI Home — Mobile companion for YI Smart Camera systems

YI Home is the official mobile application for YI Smart Camera devices. Use it to configure cameras on your local network and to view live video streams remotely from any location. The app provides a continuous, real-time view of your property and lets you connect to your cameras whenever you need to check in.

Security capabilities and intelligent monitoring

The YI Smart Camera combined with the YI Home app provides automated monitoring so you can feel safer at home. Key capabilities include:

• Facial recognition to capture images of unfamiliar people and help identify potential intruders.
• Instant alerts pushed to your phone when suspicious activity is detected.
• Motion-sensing that triggers recordings and notifications at unexpected times.
• 24/7 monitoring with live streaming so you can inspect events as they happen.

Simple installation and "set-and-forget" operation

Getting started is straightforward: install the camera, pair it with the YI Home app, and customize notifications and sensitivity settings. Once configured, the system runs continuously in the background and will notify you immediately if it detects activity, giving you reliable, ongoing oversight without constant intervention.

Alternative solution to consider

If you want another option, XMEye VMS Free is a commonly recommended alternative for remote camera management and viewing.
