Add More Actions for Wyze Rules

I suggested making the list a “Poll” where users could then go vote on which ones are the most important to them.

Although, Polls say they have a limit of 20 options, so they would have to be done in multiple polls depending on the length of the list:

Example:

Which Requested Rules Are your Favorite? Poll 1
  • Turn on/off sound detection
  • Change motion/sound detection sensitivity 0-100
  • Delete all alert clips for camera
  • Turn Pan Scan on/off
  • Turn Motion Tracking on/off
  • Night vision on/off/auto
  • Infrared (IR) emitters on/off
  • Detection zone on/off
  • Save a still image
  • Sync camera time (any or all)
  • Change SD card record mode: Off, Event Only, Continuous
  • An “All camera” group under Device Actions (instead of having to add each camera’s action individually) [NOTE: actions can now be performed on user-defined groups]
  • Pan Cam: move to a specific camera memorized position or waypoint
  • Add an “all devices” option for any action
  • Tell Alexa or Google device to show camera
  • Toggle notifications for Wyze Sense sensors by event type (eg. opened vs left open)
  • Toggle Smart Video Alert recording for Wyze Sense sensors (by sensor or event type)
  • Add and remove devices from groups
  • Vacation Mode on/off (Bulbs, Light Strips and Plugs, single and group)
  • Activate a lighting Scene (Bulbs & Light Strips)

Though there might be issues with this. Does the poll start over anytime one of the options gets moved from requested to implemented? I don’t know I was mostly just trying to think of other options so it would be possible to tell how in demand different rules were. I guess the main thing is knowing that the rules team does see and review these sometimes. One of the employees did recently tell us that there is an update coming to the rules engine soon and that the rules team has been working hard on some big upgrades. So I look forward to whatever updates they are doing. It’s good to hear that they have been productive. I hope to see the fruits of their efforts soon. :slight_smile:
