App in need of serious redesign - Yes or No?

I appreciate someone is spearheading this. I’m ready to chuck the wyze band due to it’s terrible accessibility on the band and the app.

Get rid of any gray text - it’s passe and is unreadable. Overall the text contrast on all screens for all products is bad either because of the size of the font and/or the thin font chosen.

Allow all screens to be enlarged/magnified. None of the pages on any section is responsive and that is a huge miss. There are no options to choose text size so we rely on you to find one that is readable to all age groups and/or vision compromised.

I have one of the largest phones on the market but still I cannot read the text on my phone easily. My glasses are current. Now allowing landscape to help enlarge the screen is a miss. Please fix it for phones as I don’t carry around a tablet at all times. Which is not to say the tablet view is better.

I’d like to see a dark mode too. Can you toss that into the mix?

Make accessibility the religion at Wyze first and foremost on everything (including this webpage - the font is way too thin and it’s gray).

thanks.

Separate notification options/settings for shared cameras. My #1 wish.

@AustinByr How many UX and UI experts, if any, are on the design team?

Considering how badly the app is designed I would say the answer is obvious - Zero

Well I guess Wyze has decided to NOT increase the readable by changing the light green text color. Its really not hard to understand - BLACK text / White background = readable.

They’ve made some improvements in beta 2.11.xx.
White on black is more readable for me. The option of both is not a new idea. :slightly_smiling_face:

If you want to see change, talk to Austin… He actually seems to care

Well, during the install process of the Wyze app (there isn’t one) they could include a color wheel for text and background Or, they could simply offer only two… Black on white or white on black. I happen to hate the current scheme

I think it might be useful if the developers and software engineers would look at the application they are putting out through the eyes of the user rather than their own

this is my thought as well … the user experience ranges from excellent to dismal …

on a non-related issue : i just tried to order some items and the order was duplicated 6 times plus the original for a total of seven … i can find no way to delete these orders.

I would tell you to reach out to Gwendolyn as she seems to be the intermediary between the company and the customers and she has helped other people solve similar issues to the one you are experiencing now.

How do we know what version of the app we have? The app doesn’t list it and it’s not listed on Google Play store. Do you have a date when these changes are expected?

@muggsmcginnis Welcome to the Wyze community! :slightly_smiling_face:

To find what Wyze app version you’re currently using, open the app and tap on the Account Tab > About.

The app version is under the Wyze logo.

Open the app, at bottom right click account and when that page opens scroll to bottom and click about… It’s listed just below the square icon

Agreed! Start with dynamic text, a new dynamic color scheme, larger icons, and a night mode dimmer (like is found “Nite Time” clock.)
