As a Wyze owner, I will say that they are doing a lot of bullshit lately.

The app changes really has a lot of issues, as you can see complaints on their forums.

Secondly, Cam Lite users were previously able to filter 'person' in the Events tab, but now they've "removed" it in an attempt to get people to pay for Cam Plus.

I had to revert to an older version of the app, install the apk, and then turn off App Updates to get this back.

Wyze are at that point were they are getting greedy and desperate to squeeze money out of their base, now that they've gotten some wider marketshare, to the point of doing some slimy tactics with pushing their subscription in subtle ways.

You must have an older version of the app. The ON/OFF button is right there in the "Favorites" tab. The app is "freezing" because all the cameras are trying to login even when not being viewed. You have to turn off this option ("Autoplay Video Live Streams") in the app settings.
I only have one camera I have the latest update.

Lmao you have clearly never used both.

The C120 is way more reliable than any Wyze cam I've used (OG,V2,V4) and has RTSP functionality out of the box. Sorry for your loss.
Clearly? lol My house is full of Kasa/Tapo products as they intergrate into Home Assistant so well. There is no loss for me, tell your mom ill be by tonight.

I hate Wyze's latest app update. There used to be a button to turn the camera on and off easily. Now you have to navigate to do it and the new app update freezes quite a bit.
just pay them a higher subscription fee and they'll be more than happy to fix that for you wootwootwoot

I agree with all of the Wyze hate here. I have been an avid user of their cameras for many years but the incessant sales pitches for subscriptions, buggy app updates and reduction of free and useful features is beyond annoying. It's like you're paying for the most invasive SPAM ever. I understand that they need to make money but this is just insane.

Love the info on TP-link, going to look at that to replace all of my Wyze cameras.

It does not. But when Amazon services are down, it's not vacuuming either. The vacuum is probably the best Wyze product I have. The night vision on the v3's is also impressive. I still find the Eufy cams to be more solid. And if you want to quickly access a cam, it doesn't take forever to load the app and start a stream as it does with Wyze.

Patience. Vac+ is coming ))) Night vision? Interesting.

I'm on eufy now and wyze v2 for backup or in car. I like 2k and better low light but not 15fps. Wyze is better because i can enable event or continuous recording and read files any time on any device if i remove sd card. In eufy files are encrypted. Eufy records events better than wyze. I hope eufy makes 2k/4k 30fts ptz in black and better quality lens glass or plastic.

i cant imagine why anyone on earth would by wyze when you have to pay for ai detection and it has a 5 minute cooldown on detections, its like literally the worst security camera on earth. i bought a bunch of wyze cameras before they did their bait and switch and now they are collecting dust. my biggest negative slick deal (i lost hundreds buying their crap)

If you don't want subscription and care for RTSP and recording and easy access . The v3 are better. V4 is additional tap and click to get to ur recording video. Wyze is trash these days and gate keeping. I'm afraid at some point they will update the app to cripple those V3 functions

I use them because I don't use ai detection and I record 24/7. I understand the events point, I just don't use my cameras in that way. "the worst security camera on earth"...I highly doubt that, but it is fair to say that the software doesn't fit your needs.

Then why TF are you in a Wyze post? I bet you work for a competitor, that is why you're in here talking smack!
Why are you against having additional info for other consumer to make their decision?
Are you bootlicking for wyze? care to tell us what cameras you have, and any association you have with wyze?

Nobody is forcing people here to buy another Brand -- we're just saying Wyze is continuing to put functions that use to work behind gate of subscription

Are they greedy or are they finally needing to turn a little extra profit to innovate? I mean other than Blink there really the leader in low cost high value cameras. I mean hell, I just sold 2 Google Nest wired cams from 7 years ago for $225 on eBay, blows my mind.

If you're already into this ecosystem, then I guess a good deal, but if you're looking for an alternative bc Wyze is paywalling basic features now, I HIGHLY suggest Topo cameras. I took the loss and replaced all my Wyze cameras, and don't regret it at all.

I use mine for very simple things like monitoring a 3d printer etc. I like this brand more than blink and I've been waiting on a good sale.

But we don't have microcenter and I don't have Costco either lol. Oh well.

How do you know? Is there a site or an ad listing this costco deal? Its not in the latest costco insert. It would be good to know the source for this time and the future.
