Enable camera off/on with Home and away mode

Hi,
How to enable yi home camera off when in Home mode and on when in away mode?

Hey thanks for the question!

For all our cameras expect for the Kami Wire-Free Outdoor Camera, the ‘home’ and ‘away’ buttons pause the push notifications to the your phone and alerts in the app. Cloud uploads and SD card recordings will still continue. If you want to fully disable the camera you will need to go into settings and turn the camera off (shown below).

Here is some more information about the home and away mode.

Hey @Mesh77 home mode doesn’t turn of the camera. It just disables the notifications. If you specifically need to turn it off you’ll need to go into the settings as shown in the screenshot above.

You could look at using a smart plug or smart home system if you wanted automated on off of the YI camera.
