I received 2 Wyze Cams V2 today I was successful one time in scanning the bar code on start up , Then the connection did not complete and it said to rescan the bar code. I tried and it would not scan the code I moved the phone around for a better scan nothing worked. Reset the camera it still would not scan. I tried the second camera followed the start up procedure could not get it to scan the code. I have 2 other V2 cameras that I bought a number of months and they work fine. I am using a Samsung A -8 phone. I am using the Wyze firmware version 4.9.5.36 I did not install the news firmware as people were having issues with there cameras after updating. I also have subscribed for the CMC service which had been working great since it first came out. The person detection in the CMC (using firmware 4.9.5.36 )is working like it is suppose to. This is why I don’t want to upgrade to the newer firmware version and end up loosing the person detection. Could my cameras not be scanning the bar codes properly because I do not have the latest firmware?
Make sure the whole qr code is visible. Scroll up when the code is on your phone and see if that helps.
