Adding to this thread, I also had to rely on a 3rd party apps to at least get some customization of the doorbell notifications vs AI detection of other things. So I will post my Tasker profile and the two tasks which will run when the profile intercepts the Wyze doorbell ring notification.
Breaking this down a bit more (but will not go into an in-depth tutorial on setting these things up in Tasker, there are enough tutorials for people to learn that themselves):
-
The profile which intercepts the Wyze doorbell ring notification relies on a Tasker plugin called AutoNotification (this is a paid app but only a couple dollars). This plugin makes it very straightforward to intercept notifications in real-time based on filters like what app is generating the notification, what the title/text of the notification says, etc. I relied on these filters to grab the right notification.

The main or “parent” task is where I set up the custom notification. Without getting into too much detail, I didn’t set up the task to the exact parameters of the sound/priority/vibration for the notification within Tasker. The way Tasker works is that it generates a notification category in the Android system under Tasker’s notification settings. I called this category “Doorbell” in my task. Once this category is created, you can then change the exact notification details like sound, where/how the notification shows up, etc. from the system settings.

Finally, there is a 2nd task I had to create which I nested in the first one. This had to be done because of the way Tasker is built (again, intricacies). This task adds the ability to interact with the notification so that when the custom notification for the doorbell ring is generated, you can click on the notification, the notification will then be cleared from the system, and the Wyze app is opened

The custom notification which gets generated isn’t perfect by any means, but at least you can choose any sounds you would like and the your own desired options for the way Android doorbell ring notifications behave in general separate from other Wyze notifications. There isn’t any Wyze integration into Tasker unfortunately so all the notification can do is open the main or starting Wyze app page (and there likely will never be any Tasker integration considering I having to utilize this approach just to get different notifications for a doorbell when people have been asking for this feature for years…so yeah). I have my doorbell as one of favorites so it is at the top of my list on the starting page when I open the task.
Hopefully this will benefit some people if they can get my profiles and tasks running on their own phones.
