YI Dashcam App, Software and Firmware Guide

The YI dashcam app connects supported cameras for setup and clip transfer, but availability can differ by phone platform and region. Treat firmware as model-specific and never install a file from an untrusted mirror.

The YI dashcam app was designed to connect a supported YI camera to a phone over the camera's local Wi-Fi. It can expose settings, live view and saved clips, depending on the model and app version. Before downloading, verify the publisher and regional availability in the official iOS or Android store.

Questions before you buy

How do I connect the YI dashcam app?

Turn on the camera's Wi-Fi, join its network from the phone and open the supported YI app. Grant the local-network and location permissions required by the phone platform.

Is the YI dashcam app available on iOS?

Availability can vary by country and app-store status. Search the official App Store and verify the developer rather than downloading an unofficial package.

Where should I download YI dashcam firmware?

Use only the official support source for the exact model and region. Do not install firmware from file-sharing sites or a different YI camera.

Why will the YI dash cam app not connect?

Common causes include joining the wrong Wi-Fi network, denied local-network permission, mobile VPN settings or an existing connection to another phone. Restart both devices after checking permissions.

Does YI dashcam software work on a computer?

Video files can generally be opened with compatible media software, but camera configuration is model-dependent and commonly handled through the mobile app.
