I recommend that the cam be set to continuous recording to the SD card. If you know the time of the event you can find it on the timeline. I have never used just event recording on any camera.
I checked and it is set on continuous. It doesnât appear to be recording anything at all.
How are you sure that thereâs no SD recording? Sometimes people just donât know how to access SD footage. Try to mount the SD card on a PC/mac to see if itâs blank. More likely it isnât.
Open the app and go to settings for the V4, go to advanced setting, manage MicroSD Card and see if it is recording.
It says 0G/0.25G. I assume it is not recording.
Less than a gigabytes capacity? Try another SD card.
After restarting the camera it now says . 01G and shows a tiny amount of the green progression bar. It will record to my device but still does not reveal any video recording on playback.

Yes, that was indeed the problem. It was actually a 64GB card I put in there and I did let the wyze app reformat the card. I thought that was odd. Turns out the card had 2 partitions on it. I reformatted it with windows disk management (removing the partitions) and now it works as expected.
Thank you so much for sticking with me until this was resolved.
Much respect!
64GB card will last about 6 days of continuous recording before it starts to overwrite the old files first. I know you donât want to spend money but old inexpensive SD cards may or may not last while using them for continuous 24/7 recording. Give your card a try but donât be surprised if stops working after an extended period.
I use cards that are designed for continuous recording, the 128 GB card has a advertised life of 70.080 hours and the 256 GB card is 140,000 hours (16 years) but they can cost $$. I got the 128 cards on sale for approx. $20.00 each and the 256 cards now cost $35-$40 each.
