I’ve been having the same problem. I’ve found a get around at the moment that will hopefully help you.
I became a beta tester of the yeelight app, then the beta app allows you to connect via the US locale. Select the US locale and I was then able to connect my Yeelight lightstrip. You’ll have to re bind all your other devices to the US locale, and the beta app isn’t quite as pretty as the normal one but it gives you more functionality.
Remember to reset all your devices individually before trying to re bind them to the new locale.
I do have an Iphone seems like there is no solution. Anyone find a way to connect the yeelight strip to Yeelight App Singapore Locale without freezing to 25%?
Yes I could see the strip (not bulb) connected but the weird thing is that in the Yeelight app the connection times out at 25% and when I open the MI Home app l can see the Lightstrip connected to Mainland China Server even though I am trying to connect it to the Singapore server through the Yeelight app!
That’s strange, maybe it’s a bug of the Yeelight app. Could you login to China server in Yeelight app and see if the bulb is present in your device list?
Oh, then it should be a bug of Yeelight app. Please try logout Yeelight app and choose Singapore server and re-login.
BTW, please let us know Yeelight app’s version.
Thanks for coming back.
Unfortunately I have done this and again I have the same problem with freezing on 25% when I try to add the lightstrip and finally is added on the China Server.
My Yeelight app version is 1.8.77 on IOS
I will try to delete the app from the IPhone and re-install to check if that will change anything.
Thanks and Regards
