The ability to change the now App driven notification tone is only available in Android and may vary depending on your Android version and the custom Brand OS build for your device. It is not able to be changed in iOS.
Long press the Wyze App Icon Button
Select App Info
Select Notifications
Select WyzeMessage (there may be multiple, repeat for each)
Expand Advanced Menu

Alternatively, you can also do this thru the main settings menu:

Tap Notifications.
Tap WyzeMessage channel. This is the channel used for push notifications Repeat if there are multiple.
@SlabSlayer and Wyze team, we need to set notifications by events. Not just change the sound for all events. With my Android phone using the app MacroDriod, this is working perfectly. I guess this is not the update I expected correct?
If a person is detected, I want to use my MP3 that sounds like this person was detected in the front, backyard, or garage.
We need a way to separate all these events with different sounds. I do not want a sound when so many vehicles are passing by. So I disabled the Wyse appâs sound notifications, set MacroDriod to sound, and opened the app for that specific event.
So I have updated ti Ver. 2.41 from the play store but have yet found where you can change the individual notification for each camera. or is this just to change the overall app tone which I thought was always available.
The ability to change notification tones for apps in Android is a native feature of the Android app. iOS removed that capability for users some time ago. If that feature is desired, iOS is where you need to inquire.
The ability to assign custom notification tones in Android based on the text of the notification received thru use of third party apps is also Android driven as they allow developers to develop apps that will operate on Android. iOS app development is much more restrictive and costly. That is why you do not see those apps from independant developers on iOS. Again, an Apple iOS restriction that has to be addressed to them.
I read that Android users can change the app driven notification tone . When will IOS users be able to change the app driven notification tone in the iphone?
Yes. This is just for the Global Wyze App notification, which could be changed in the Android settings, but was never previously set by the app. It always used the Android Default if not changed by the user. Now it is set by the app on install. Individual tones by cam is not yet a feature. It is on the wishlist. That wishlist topic discusses the third party apps that can accomplish this on Android.
I am an iPhone user. It sounds like thereâs no way to change the tone we are forced upon. I much prefer the old tone, which is short and clear. May we have the old tone back in the next update? Thanks.
Weâve been asking for a selection of alert tones for years so we know what device is being triggered. Instead wyz changes the phones default alert tones to a muted tone that doesnât sound like an alert at all. More like part of a lullaby.
I replaced most of my wyze cameras and products. I was an early adopter but wyze strayed and isnât being honest with their customers. Itâs too bad but all good things come to an end.
