Two days ago, my wife told me that when she opened the Wyze app on her phone, that all the cameras were off. I checked my app, and was able to turn them on without issue. Problem is, neither of us turned them off. We have never turned them off with the app or otherwise. I have a Ubiquity home netw…

[image] kboutelle: I put in a support ticket but Wyze support must be powered by the dumbest AI in existance. I put all the needed info in the request and I’ve received nothing but questions about my systems and configurations. All of which was provided in the very first request. Yeah. I hav…

[image] kboutelle: I have a Ubiquity home network so I checked for outage issues and there were none. All my Wyze devices were connected and had not lost connectivity in the preceeding 72 hours (longer actually, but I’m going back to as far as the last time I had the app open). When cameras a…

Right, but are they still recording events? If it’s just in the app, I’m going to drop it as an issue.

[image] kboutelle: Right, but are they still recording events? I don’t think so.

They don’t record cloud events and shouldn’t record to the sd card either.

Is it possible that the group off/on button was touched by mistake? I know I do, sometimes.

That would make sense and I discussed with the wife. She was certain that she didn’t do that and I am positive that I didn’t. I never understood the need to turn cameras off, personally. I would just unplug a cam that I didn’t want in use or recording motion (as in my garage when I’m working out th…

I brought it up because I really never notice that I touched the group on/off button. It’s because the culprit is usually the palm. I’d only notice the next time I checked the cameras and the cameras were off. I know I’m not the only one who does this; I saw someone complain about it here.

[image] kboutelle: But I guess there are use cases that I am unaware of. Very true. I turn off my old v2 cams at night in the backyard since they don’t have night vision. I also only have my garage cam on when I go to sleep. The v3 cams are amazing. You can also set a rule to turn on all c…

[image] kboutelle: use cases that I am unaware of When you want to turn off several cameras (say, in a given area) all at once. Rather than go through each one and turn off individually. When I do work in the garage with several cameras there, I don’t want every single second recorded.
