Will they be add 24/7 cloud recordings to all cameras? CurrentlY I can only add it to a cam v3.

Several firmware updates recently have mentioned it so it seems it will probably be on most cams. My OGs are the only ones that haven’t gotten an update, not sure on those. I have no subscription so don’t know which ones actually allow it to be added yet, wasn’t even aware they’d started offering it, it all seemed like “prep work”. I’m assuming you need one of the more expensive plans to use it.

Wouldn’t be surprised if battery cams don’t support it, but who knows.

Given the limited bandwidth on 2.4ghz and what I’m assuming is a more expensive subscription, not sure how popular it will be, though with SD card prices how they are right now, it might be a good seller. How well it works will depend how many cams you have an how good your wifi is.

$4.99 per month/ each camera for CVR - I’ll keep my SD cards. :grin:

Sure like my NVR on my Reolink cameras :winking_face_with_tongue:

No subscription fee ever, makes the Reolink’s actually more affordable than Wyze in the end …

Thanks for the questions @NajeeR .

  1. Yes, we are working on rolling out cloud CVR on more cameras, more models will be supported by the end of the year and into next year. I will try and share which camera models those will be once we have solid dates.
  2. @dave27 is correct that it won’t be supported on battery cams since cloud CVR requires the camera to run continuously and would drain the battery within a couple of days.
  3. Cloud cvr is available as an add-on for any supported camera model that has a paid plan, this could be cam plus, cam unlimited, or cam unlimited pro
  4. Right now we are limiting cloud CVR to one camera per account so it doesn’t impact user bandwidth, but we will explore expanding this in the future.
  5. SD cards and cloud CVR actually make a great pairing. The primary recording mechanism is cloud CVR but if your internet ever goes offline, the SD card will fill in the continuous video recording gap until internet is restored.

Please let me know if you have any other feedback about the feature so we can continue to improve it. Thanks!
