I have multiple camera groups stored in my Wyze app on my android phone - works great there.
When I rotate my phone and view them in landscape, it works fine and shows 4 cameras simultaneously [properly rotated] on my phone. I want do do the same in Blue Stacks/Wyze app.
HOWEVER, When I rotate the Wyze app in Blue Stacks to landscape, it shows the cameras [in that group] still [improperly] oriented for portrait mode but the Wyze app does rotate sideways. So, it shows the Wyze app “sideways” and the cameras do not rotate.
How can I get that to display properly in the Wyze app on Blue Stacks like it does on my phone?
Briepage - thanks for the reply. That does not work. That Blue Stacks button is what I pressed to rotate the app in my image above. The problem is with the Wyze app because the Wyze app will not rotate the camera images within it’s app.
I understand the Blue Stacks controls, thanks. The actual problem exists within the Wyze app, I think. IT won’t rotate the individual camera images [inside the Wyze app when viewing a “camera group”] when Blue stacks rotates the whole Wyze app.
The way the Wyze app SHOULD work is like it does when you view a “camera group” on your phone. On your phone, if you have 4 cameras in a “group” it shows 4 cameras simultaneously in the portrait mode when you turn your phone sideways. It doesn’t do that in blue stacks (see my original image). That’s the problem, as I see it.
Yeah, I’d love to see a solution for this. Of course, we wouldn’t have to rely on BlueStacks if Wyze would develop an app for Windows or one that works via a browser.
Yes, this used to work in BlueStacks 4, but quit working a month or two ago.
My experience, like yours, is that it not work in BlueStacks5 either.
I have been using Link to Windows. I have to turn my phone for the window to change orientation,
Unfortunately, any settings have to be changed in the phone itself because it crashes in Windows.
Eventually Windows 11 is supposed to support Android applications too.
I also can not get the Wyze app to rotate to show the camera group landscape. It works on my phone but not in bluestacks. The Bluestacks rotation does work when you are on a single camera, but not in groups. My guess is that the wyze app is using a different “rotations detection method” for that screen of the app. If you notice on your phone, the app never rotates unless its on the group screen or a single camera screen.
Also seeing this issue and really hoping for a fix from either BlueStacks or Wyze, whomever’s issue it is. (Noteworthy that other apps seem to rotate just fine, so my suspicion is it is a Wyze app bug.)
Wyze – just an idea here. This problem would be entirely resolved if you provided users with a web portal to view cams instead of ONLY the app. (and no, I don’t mean changing everything to be the local streaming method, etc.) I see no reason why, if you can build an app to view the cams, you can’t provide a web portal to do the same thing. [Yes, I know it is sort of off-topic, but is it really? Most of us are only using BlueStacks because there is no web portal…]
This is all great if I wanted to spend hundreds of dollars a year (which I don’t/can’t) and sign up for the cam plus package. I’m not asking for anything above current functionality… Just trying to understand how this app doesn’t play well with something that the user base clearly uses. But seeing as it doesn’t make you money… I guess we’ll never see it.
