Upgraded from Doorbell V1 to The DuoCam Doorbell and selected a few cameras as chimes. I can’t select different tunes for the chimes on the cameras. Was this feature removed or behind a paywall? Was looking forward to multiple chimes on different cameras.

As far as I’m aware, cameras used as accessory chimes make only a traditional ding-dong! noise. That has always been my experience using Cam Pan v3s and Cam OGs as accessory chimes for my Video Doorbell v2, anyway, and I would expect the experience to be similar with Duo Cam Doorbell.
When I’m navigating within that feature and select to Customize a camera, I do see an option for Chime Sound, but the only sound option available to select within that is Clear Doorbell. That’s all I’ve ever seen since this feature was introduced last year. When I read that and see the availability of that Chime Sound option, I think it implies that Wyze could add additional sounds via firmware updates (I’d imagine) at some point, but that’s just a guess, and I’ve never seen any official mention that they plan to do that.
If you want to select different tunes or other sounds, then I think you’ll have to do that on the Wi-Fi Chime—if you bought the Duo Cam Doorbell that includes one (apparently Home Depot and other vendors are selling Duo Cam Doorbell without the Wi-Fi Chime that was included at launch).
I somehow got mine to play Christmas themed chime when I got the new duo doorbell cam and I don’t know how to change it back to a normal chime.
That’s the Wi-Fi Chime that shipped with Duo Cam Doorbell, though, right? I don’t have one of those, but I believe it’s controlled by an Automation, so you can probably navigate to that section of the app, find the Device & Service Trigger that’s controlling the Wi-Fi Chime, and change the sound there.
Purchased the seperate Wyze Chime, it’s listed now on AMZ for folks wanting to complete their DuoCam experience. I should be receiving it today.

Good to know that’s now shipping. I saw @fmills1d mention it a couple of weeks ago:
I still haven’t seen that in the Wyze Store, but I appreciate your sharing that it’s available.
