Good news - the timelapse button has appeared on the v4 pan controls (running Wyze Beta app v3.9.0 (b729) on Android, v4 pan firmware 4.70.0.2884). Thank you Wyze!
Now the bad news - after setting and recording a time lapse, there’s no video file in the album. Tried multiple times, went through the usual reasons why a timelapse won’t save to file - app file permissions, same wifi network, reboot, SD card space, etc. Timelapse still works fine on my v3 and regular v4 cams.
I sure hope this means that they are working on the time lapse feature (but haven’t finished yet), rather than them just having accidentally added that button to the beta code.
I’d try reformatting the SD card (even if it shows plenty of free space), but suspect you already have.
I think they’re working on it. Weird thing, just now - almost a week after attempting multiple short time lapse recordings - those files magically appeared in the camera’s video album. They weren’t there an hour ago when I just pulled up an older video to share to social media. But later I pulled the camera up again, and a bunch of click-to-download timelapse videos were listed.
I didn’t reformat the card a week ago. It’s a 512GB high speed card with very little on it, but I still had some footage I was planning to back up before reformatting. Still haven’t reformatted, no recent firmware upgrades to the camera or the app, or updates to the phone operating system. Just suddenly I have footage now. Weird. And I just made a new short timelapse video, showed up in the video album immediately ready to download.
