Mi Home - Xiaomi Smart Home App Reviews

Thanks

You need more english in the app as WE love your products in Europe !!

Works smooth, even on iOS 9 public beta as per 17.08.2015. Very simple intuitive one-click interface. I love the panorama function. Good image capture options. You have the possibility to turn off the camera remotely (and also switch the recording LED to on/off although a user could cheat). Easy timeline-based navigation to display past recordings. Camera automatically adapts display quality based on bandwidth. Integrated "Device Shop" does not add any value to the app (and is all in Chinese - hey guys please share with English speaking, too) To register a new cam to the app can be a little nightmare because the cam build-in voice prompts are on Chinese only and I had to run through the process like 6 times before I got it right. But once in, it seems rocky stable. Some latency when opening a cam, but not sure it is due to the Xiaomi streaming server or my own router & internet. Device Sharing is too complex as it can only be done AFTER your invitee has already created a Xiaomi account. You should be able to send a e-mail invite to download the App AND create an account AND validate the invitation, all in one process. FAQ and MiHome Forum are in Chinese only. Either translate or remove link for the English App. In the SETTINGS the second option is still in Chinese. It translates somehow "video surveillance storage, video surveillance will be stored in the open dish millet route" (yeah Google translate isnt quite good in this) But the main reason why I took off two stars for this version: 1) Official App name displays in Chinese when installed on non-Chinese iOS. Needs to be in English for easy recognition. 2) Notifications display in Chinese language: please translate notification into English as I have several Ants cameras and never know which one is requesting my attention. 3) Notifications indicate China/HK time zone, probably from the streaming server. Pop-up time must be displayed in cameras local time (if not possible, use time from smartphone). 4) I have the "motion sensor" version of camera: camera senses strong changes in light as if it was a movement. In places with frequent weather change (cloud / sun) and where lights are automatically switched on/off with no real movement, it will trigger an alert, which is quite annoying and misleading. I experienced this in low-end cameras and hoped this would not happen with the Xiaomi cam. 5) Sound quality for listening and talking is very limited, even with good bandwidth. I wanted to use the cam to give instructions to somebody ringing at my door when I am away after receiving a Notification, but talk exchanges are incomprehensible.

Could be good but need to be translated in French or in English. Otherwise we cannot use it!

Good to use but we cant make scene with iOS ? Why ?

You need to download the app from the apple store that is in English language. It works!

Please, add french translation !

It crash when open

The new release does not work. It stops immediately.

Update from 23/03/2016 : Scenes not translated Change log not translated Please, at least use google translator ! ------------------- Great effort made on translation but still useless in Europe unless you read Chinese ... Some parts are still not translated : scenes.

BRING IT BACK PLEASE !!!!!!!

Not work the app crash immediately

Impossible to use the application so my cameras doesnt work :/

Please, make it in English. Not half English half Chinese. And the possibility to change the time zone.

plus d accès 3G/4g !!!!!

Its a shame, Xiaomi does really good products, its lonely problem is the language of the apps... If you speak chinese everything is ok! The rest of the world is still waiting.

Chinese Only :-( results are never the same. I had too try many times to set up my repeater

i like to see langiage update, English, French, Spanish (no german please) and hebrew

Application à traduire en français ou complètement en anglais car il est moitié en anglais moitié en chinois ! Please translate IN FRENCH of ENTIRELY IN ENGLISH ! Currently its half in English and half in Chinese so extremely complicated to set up.

Im waiting for the translation of the reports into English.
