How to Connect Xiaomi Mi Home Security Camera 360 to the Mobile Phone via Wifi

[@imagenigraphics]

For everyone who is having difficulty on scanning the QR code from your phone (stuck on "waiting for connection") this worked for me after over an hour trying to scan the qr: 1. screenshot the qr code on your mi home app 2. open the screenshot image and zoom 3. place the phone in front of the camera 5 to 12 inches away (change distance everytime it says "waiting for connection") 4. Instead of placing the phone in a standing position 90 degrees, change it to 45 degrees (slanting/diagonal position facing the camera) - yep, it worked. IF No. 4 didn't work: 5. Screenshot the qr code, send it to a computer and zoom it there then let the camera scan it. 100% working

Wow thanks for the tip 👍

Btw computer method worked for me... It is full proof method would definitely recommend this method to all....

[@sowmyasnaik2771]

You comment was really a lifesaver And your idea of screenshot in phonr and titling it to 45 degree worked like a charm after lots of struggle and frustrations.. Thank yu so much
