LPT: Keep a “nail in the coffin” list to stop repeating the same mistakes
My Wyze cam pans from my front door, to my grocery list, and all the way to the back door. My 4’ wide x 6’ tall chalkboard grocery list is extremely legible from anywhere on earth, and bonus points because the list is grocery store shaped / grocery store fire map is directly above it. It’s like a sh

I'm absolutely done with Wyze. What is a good reliable alternative?
Just getting into Wyze cameras. Had the pan duo cam for around a month now, it sits on the wall outside my garage. Also a Wyze cam OG outside the front door. Both have been awesome. It’s never skipped or missed any movement, even at -20°C. I didn’t buy the subscription service and I didn’t even sign

Wyze sucks more every day. Need an alternative
I bought into the Wyze cameras last October. I currently have five. I have never had an issue. I don’t pay for cloud storage and never will. I have a 128gb card in each camera. The cameras start writing over the old footage at around one week of 24/7 recording. I’ve been five thousand kilometers awa

Wyze sucks more every day. Need an alternative
I have literally 30 wyze cameras. Mostly v4s, some pan cams, doorbell, bulb cam. Never a single issue. I can’t believe how much people complain I’ve never been happier with a camera

Remove Wyze’s grasp on your cameras for free forever with Thingino!
This is awesome! I quit buying any new wyze cameras after the V3 because I was so annoyed by the forced ecosystem lock-in as well as how badly they treated the HomeAssistant 3rd party integration development project. I quit buying new wyze hardware since that (switched to Reolink in case anyone is w

Casually blinding my dude with calcium (shes fine)
I have two different Wyze cameras. The Pan v3 and the OG. Both have night vision and work great for checking in and making sure they are doing well

Sounds to me like OP is expecting way too much out of some basic consumer grade cameras. I still have one of the OG Wyze cameras that works great. The rest around my house have all worked great. For the price they are amazing little cameras.

Camera clicking when moving
I just bought a Wyze Cam PanV3 and it works great. I really love it, and it gives me so much peace of mind. Usually i would have no need for this but in this neighborhood and even with the housemates I live with, one is a straight theif , stolen so much from me, food mostly, $5, and stole the other

Wyze Cam Plus is a joke, constant “failed to load” errors
I have - currently - 11 Wyze cameras up and running. Yes, I pay for CamPlus and have few issues. I do have a few SD cards in cameras, but that’s mainly to record Timelapse when the opportunity is ripe. Anything from first v2s (now over 7 years old) to OGs (about 18 months old).
