Viewing YI Cameras on Roku TVs - and YI versus Roku Cameras

Community Support
#1

I’ve been using YI cameras now for a long time now, and have almost 30 cameras at various locations. I use the YI Home app on my iPhone, iPad, and on my Windows computers to view the cameras. But… I would really love to be able to view these cameras on our Roku TVs. From reading posts in this forum, it doesn’t sound like YI Tech has any plans of adding a Roku app any time soon. So… my questions are:

  • Has anyone found a work-around to view YI cameras on Roku TVs?
  • Has anyone switched to Roku cameras instead of YI cameras, and if so, how would you compare the quality of the camera and viewing app as compared to the YI cameras and app?

I’m seriously thinking of switching to Roku cameras (despite the investment I’ve already made in all my YI cameras), but would like to hear from someone who has already done this. Thanks for your input!
