Battery Cam Pro - need Timelapse ASAP

I lived in Florida for over 60+ years. So the answer is yes.

Cooked out dinner on my bbq grill on a nice night. Rained for 45 minutes afterwards. Not raining now. Neighbors went back to their outside party. It’s a tropical storm. It might reach cat 1 when it comes ashore. No panic in the streets. The canals do a great job.

Battery cam is all set up. But alas, no timelapse

At least the skies look clear. Sorry to hear about lack of timelapse.

Still nice down here. Time for a dip in the pool.

I just noticed you have a little mirror in the view of the camera so it can see a spot behind it! That’s brilliant.

Thanks. I use that to see if my gate is closed.

60+ years. Whew, good for you - i guess.
How’s the storm damage where you’re at. Got a buddy in Sarasota and his house is the only one not flooded ( he built on a man made 12 ft mound and set the home on driven piles.) but he’s got a moat now, so that’s (in his words - a benefit).
Our lake place on Istokpoga is fine it’s 57 ft above sea level.

Yeah. Lived a good life. Spent time in Tennessee, Maryland and multiple cities in Florida including the Florida Keys. Seen all 50 US States and a few Canadian Provinces. Yep. I am old, but healthy. Dad is healthy at 92 years of age.

No damage on my side of the state. A little rain before, during and after. No flooding or damage. Still spent time in the pool. I am at 9.5 ft above sea level. The west coast and Big Bend area got hit hard. A few people died.

Wow. 57 feet sounds high for Florida. (Drove through Everglades National Park and saw a sign that read “1 foot above sea level”.)

Spent some time at Lake Istopoaga many years ago as a younster. Very nice.

p.s. I did visit a beach at 1400 feet below sea level in 2023. Speaking of sea levels.

Any news on Timelapse? I have a construction project starting soon .

Im considering just buying something made for timelapse. Not wyze.

No update on timelapse for battery cam pro?

Seriously. I’d appreciate even just an update saying “we’re still working on it” or “we gave up on it”

Yep. Even a simple status update would be great.

How about
“We’re still in the process of giving up or working on it”.

Perhaps we can get timelapse on Battery Cam Pro before the sunspot activity dies back down again…. The WCO timelapses are great for aurora, I’d like to replace an old WCO with a battery cam, but I’m holding off on the purchase until timelapse is confirmed.

Recently went on a two week wilderness fishing trip, and wanted to take my battery cam ‘pro’ with me. Of course Timelapse was my first want for the trip but thought the night vision may capture creatures in the night, then realized that it doesn’t support travel mode. I can’t quite understand why when you have other cameras in your product line supporting some of these features, so proven that it is possible, then you release a newer better model without those same features. This is a truly bizarre behavior at Wyze which drives me crazy. Here you are making a better camera, better resolution, better sensors, better night vision but essentially less portable? Similar to your door locks, I have one of each, one locks when I close the door, the other locks after like ten seconds whether the door is open or closed, so once again the newer device has different and less functionality. I appreciate the innovation, I appreciate the pricing but sometimes the random direction of the design and functionality really makes it seem like there isn’t a cohesive plan for new design. Generally you don’t remove features with new devices. Guess I’ll get a cheap Go Pro for Timelapse’s and travel. I believe all of their product lines have similar features.

Well?

No need to “bump” or post no content replies, just make sure your topic settings are set to “watching” to get updates for any changes or replies to his topic in the future. Since you have replied here, I am sure your settings are already at “watching”.

It wasnt a bump, I want to know what the status is on this feature. If you like, I can just start a new thread every month, year, decade?

"Timelapse - Yes, we plan to add this function in the future for our power users. We’re aiming for sometime at the end of this year or early next year. " This was August 2023.

No need. Just monitor this topic for any update. You can visit the How to use the Wishlist topic for info on what the status tags mean. Looks like unfortunately the possibility of this has been pushed back if nothing has been updated in this topic.

If not yet, you could join the beta program to be notified to help test beta firmware and features before they are released to production to be able to get stuff earlier. By following this topic and watching the status tags, keep an eye out for “in development” or “researching” to see if and when this is moving along the roadmap and beta status.
