If I have the Service for storage in the Cloud, is it only storing Events or does it store all recording constantly? If the camera is in a room with no Events for the past 3 days, would I still be able to view that past few hours from the cloud storage?

Thanks for the reply. Seems like that is norm. Unable to find any company that will record 24x7. Figure if the camera is stolen, the Event in the Cloud may not have enough video without having constant recording.

The thread I linked to above was closed in January 2025. Before the thread was locked to new posts, it did not appear to be fixed. The link you posted brings up another point. I thought Fix-It-Friday discussions were suppose to return.

Right, and that topic was what led to an extensive discussion in the Fix-It Friday topic that I linked, which is the last communication I recall seeing from Wyze on the issue. [image] StevenA: it did not appear to be fixed. What’s the evidence? I haven’t seen any either way, which is the ba…

Keep in mind if your Wyze camera is stolen and then added to the thief’s Wyze account you will no longer have access to Cloud videos.
