Why do I need a subscription to view videos recorded on my SD card?
You do not need a subscription to view videos recorded on your SD card. The Yi IoT camera supports local storage via a microSD card (FAT32 format, up to 64GB) which automatically records and loops when full.
To view your local recordings without a subscription, follow these steps in the Yi IoT app:
The app often promotes the Cloud Storage subscription as a primary option, which can be confusing. As long as your SD card is recognized by the camera, you can access your footage for free through the local playback menu.

How do I set the Yi IoT camera to FHD resolution permanently?
To set your Yi IoT camera to FHD (Full High Definition) resolution, follow these steps within the app:
Note on 'Constant' FHD: Many Yi IoT cameras default to 'Auto' to ensure a smooth stream based on your current Wi-Fi signal strength. If your internet connection fluctuates, the app may automatically downgrade the quality to prevent buffering. To maintain FHD constantly, ensure you have a strong, stable Wi-Fi connection (5GHz is not supported by most models; use a stable 2.4GHz signal). If the setting reverts to SD every time you reopen the app, check the Camera Settings (gear icon) for any specific 'Default Video Quality' options, though this varies by specific firmware version.

How can I change the Wi-Fi network for my Yi IoT camera without reconfiguring it?
To change the Wi-Fi network for your Yi IoT camera, you generally must go through the setup process again because the camera needs to receive the new network credentials (SSID and Password) via a new QR code scan.
According to the manual and setup instructions:
Note: If you are simply moving the camera to a new location that uses the exact same Wi-Fi name (SSID) and password as the previous one, the camera should reconnect automatically without any reconfiguration.

when creating account, why does it ask for CREDIT CARD information if free. Is there a monthly fee ??
Why does the Yi IoT app ask for credit card information during account creation, and is there a monthly fee?
The Yi IoT app itself is free to download and use for basic camera functions. However, the app offers optional Cloud Storage subscriptions which do require a monthly or annual fee. If you are being asked for credit card information during setup, it is likely because you are being prompted to sign up for a free trial of the cloud service or a specific subscription plan.
You can typically bypass this by looking for a "Skip" or "Not Now" option if you prefer to use local storage. The camera supports MicroSD cards (FAT32 format, up to 64GB) for local recording, which does not require a monthly fee. If you choose to use the cloud service after a trial period, a recurring fee will apply.
If you are seeing a request for payment information immediately upon app installation (before even reaching the Yi IoT interface), ensure you have downloaded the official app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store, as the official app stores may sometimes require a payment method on file for your general account, even for free apps.

Why is my Yi IoT camera failing to pair even after multiple resets and trying different devices?
Persistent pairing failures that reach the end of the progress bar before failing often indicate a network configuration issue rather than a hardware fault. Based on the Yi IoT manual, please verify the following:
If these steps do not resolve the issue, the problem may be related to router security settings (such as MAC filtering) or a specific incompatibility with your network provider's hardware. For professional assistance in Tokyo, you may consider contacting local electronics support services or the retailer where the camera was purchased.

Non capisco il motivo della Vostra richiesta della carta di credito, la videocamera è stata pagata e nessuno si è degnato di comunicarmiche per usarla avrei dovuto subire una “gabella”, gradirei conoscere il motivo e come operare di seguito con questa videocamera. Diversamente mi rimborsate le spese e il danno, creato. Ho configurato con un wifi un mese c. a. fa, ora cambio il wifi e mi si richiede di pagare, ma siamo in un mondo reale o che cosa??
Why is the Yi IoT app asking for a credit card and payment when I change my Wi-Fi network?
The Yi IoT app typically asks for payment information in relation to its Cloud Storage subscription services. While the camera itself is a one-time purchase, cloud-based video recording is a paid service. If you are being prompted for payment while simply trying to reconfigure your Wi-Fi, it is likely that the app is displaying an advertisement or a prompt to renew a cloud subscription.
To change your Wi-Fi network without paying for a subscription, follow these steps:
If you prefer not to use cloud services, you can store video locally by inserting a microSD card (up to 64GB, FAT32 format) into the camera. This allows for automatic loop recording without a monthly fee.
If the app prevents you from completing the setup without a credit card, ensure you are not accidentally selecting a "Cloud Storage" trial or subscription during the pairing process. You should be able to skip these offers to use the basic features of the camera.
