Bulbs Offline After Power Outage, Wont Reset

That is odd. My bulb settings page is very different. I am on Firmware 1.2.0.183

I am iOS 13.3 App version 2.8.16 which is a Beta version of the app.

I am running the general public app.
I see @jtwrace is running iOS

I think this is an app issue, possibly code that is not yet in the production app. I wonder when the new app comes out?

Yes, I’m running iOS 13.3 and Wyze app V2.7.29

What version of the app are you running? I suspect it is dependent on the beta.

I can install the beta app on another device later and see if that makes a difference

I’m not seeing it on Android or iOS either. I upgraded my bulbs to the new firmware1.2.0.183. App V2.7.19 AndroidCapture _2020-01-21-21-43-59

It’s Beta only I believe. It’s not in the release notes yet.

Apparently you have to have the latest bulb firmware and the beta app for it to be available

Yep! It hasn’t been officially released yet. It will be nice when it goes production for everyone.

The latest phone beta APP and the latest firmware for the bulbs appears to fix the issue on power loss. Turned off the switch to two bulbs, one on DHCP and one on reserved IP on the router. Left it off for three days. Turned on the light and both came back as connected, within 30-60 seconds without doing anything. Changed color, increased level and all worked. So this resolved the last issue that I’m aware of with the bulbs.

the power loss recovery option allows the choice of coming back from a power loss with the lights “on” or in the “previous state”. When you have a cabin that loses power frequently the last thing you need is to come back and find the lights on for a week. There is still one minor bug left, that is it shows there is a firmware update available for lights in a group when going to “more” and back. I can live with that for a while.

I’m looking forward to the full production release. Maybe folks won’t be blinded in the middle of the night after an interruption in the power. :upside_down_face:

What’s odd is Power Loss Recovery was specifically mentioned in the announcement but not in the release notes. Somebody goofed.

I think they need to add an “off” option. We lost power at 8 at night once, it came back on at 2 AM the light was on when the power failed. In that scenario no matter what you pick it’s going to come back as on.

For sure. @UserCustomerGwen I’m sure can handle it

Hmm, the power fail feature is advertised as a firmware only feature no mention of needing an app update.
