I’m seeing extremely slow events and notifications. Anywhere from 5-10 minutes. Normally a few seconds to a minute or so. It seemed to start around 8am pacific time and has been going on for hours. Everything else is working properly.
Anyone else seeing a slow down?
I’m not, no. I was outside earlier to set up another camera to watch a 
nest, and my phone kept pinging because I was triggering several things in the area. In fact, the additional camera I moved out there pinged me as I was writing this.
What I have noticed as far as delays are concerned is significant lag (maybe a half-hour or more in some cases?) with the new Garage Door notifications, but the timing with those seems consistently inconsistent, so I suspect it’s another feature they’re continuing to refine. Just today the app presented me with a survey question and linked to a form to provide feedback on this feature.
Maybe transitory. I just triggered 3 cameras and my phone dinged within 2-4 seconds for each camera.
I’ve seen some delays with Descriptive Notifications but they are one offs and easily ignored.
Fingers crossed🤞
I’m standing down. I may have narrowed it down to one camera causing the delays. I have a suspect in my sights. Latest events took over 30 minutes to arrive. There’s may be a story behind this–we will see but nothing should take 30 minutes.
Stay tuned and thanks for looking.
I seen this in the past and notified Wyze. It seemed to get corrected.
I do see slow notifications, occasionally, on a V4 Camera with the Garage Door notification on. Person notification is fine, but I sometimes see 9 to 15 minute delays telling me my Garage Door is open or closed.
But this is not consistent. It seems to clear itself up.
It would be best for you to take a log and reach out to Wyze as it could be indicative of a larger issue.
I was premature narrowing it down to one camera. I had been working in front of that camera and of course there were more events. That was a PS V3. A few minutes ago a V4 in my office joined the party. It took 15 minutes to get the alert.
I caught one earlier today from the suspect PS V3 that had timestamps. It was 15 minutes. Look at the top event.
Yet when I walk outside and wave at the front door I get picked up within 30 seconds or so. Whatever it is it is not very repeatable.
I’m watching for another 24 hours to see if any other cameras join the party. Then I’ll probably post a log.
Just as a data point my system is running smoothly. All 85 devices (~30 are Wyze). Response times are normal. I have been following the thread about offline notifications and Wyze’s concern about it overloading their network. I’m wondering if they are seeing some spikes with the limited testing going on. I’m also curious if that may be related to why I have not been offered app release b690 from Google Play. It’s been a week now. Possibly a staggard roll out? I’m on b685 and I just checked and I do not have the option for offline notification. Guess we will see.
Central PA no issues, though as some said I’ve had strange notifications delays that just seem to go away.
Some moderatly & not so drastic things to try. Some easy ones you probably already did. You’ll know which are which.
Made sure Wyze app run in background is still set on for notifications, checked phone battery optimazation for Wyze app is still set.
Phone settings, apps play store, clear cache force stop, check for beta update in phone or on the play store.
New phone update, I Beta test Samsung stuff a lot. Breaks things. Lol
Clear phone cache partition.
Try toggling some notifications settings in Wyze app on and off.
Uninstall Wyze app, reinstall Wyze app.
No custom Wyze notifications delays on, bell in app top right clear.
ISP not having any issues or working in the area, would seem a no since all else seems to work.
None of the above in any particular order.
Thank you @G2740
All logical and good. I’ve tried them all plus some related to Google.
It’s a moving target and in the last couple of hours I’ve realized it may be somewhat rare. When this caught my eye I had been working in our detached shed. 3 cameras were watching me and it seemed to happen after I came into the house and i received delayed events. On reflection I probably triggered 50 events. Only a handful caught my attention.
I typically do not open individual events in stacked notifications. I did not realize that each had the time event occurred and time listed. I’m discovering that the majority of response time is within 1 minute. I think I just caught one that displayed both times without opening the notification.
I’m going spend more time looking at the notification bar and opening each event and get a better feel for how often this happens. It may be in the same category as what you and others are seeing. Thanks again for your ideas.
Maybe this is happening to you. If you clear them at less than 48 to 50 does it still happen?
Every time an app posts a notification, lets say it it takes up a pin. They throttle it.
When all 50 pins are full and a new notification comes in, Android quietly pulls the oldest note off the board to make space for the new one.
It does this without telling you, so you might not realize something was removed.
If you were expecting something important but the board was already full, you could miss it completely unless you open the app.
On some phones, instead of replacing old ones, new notifications might wait in line — so it looks like they aren’t arriving at all until you clear some old ones.
So… if you let dozens of alerts pile up without swiping them away, you might be hitting this invisible wall and losing track of new ones.
My Samsung s24u does it, I use Tasker to cancel some and limit it, Macrodroid might do it too.
But mostly, I’m retired and not that busy and just swipe them.
I’ve asked Samsung to stop it, allow toggles for all apps Notifications so a user can select security type notifications & or other very important notifications to come as often as needed or similarly.
Wow. Does that make sense.
Im going to sleep on it. I need to go through your explanation with a fresh head. A lot to noodle on!
Nights sleep. Clear head.
My discipline is TCP/IP, ethernet, firewalls so I understand buffering. As it pertains to the end user I confess, I’m a neophyte.
Your explanation says to me “your data may be lost”. That bothers me so I want to explore my understanding of what Samsung is telling me (BTW, I’m also using a S24 Ultra with a a9+ tablet as it’s sidekick).
In this example of a notification there are 3 time stamps. The 1st of course is the current time on the phone. The 2nd is next to “Person Detected” and I belive this is the time in question. If I understand your explanation this is a time posted by Samsung and may be dependent on many factors related to the load on the phone. If I can say it–it’s arbitrary. I had ASSUMED this time was the time reported to Samsung from Wyze–and thus making me believe Wyze had a problem. Your explanation says “no”, Samsung had the problem.
The 3rd timestamp I hope is accurate. Where and when the event took place.
I hope I’m understanding this correctly. If so I’ve learned something new today. I have a great deal of respect for Samsung and would like to keep it that way. I agree they should give us more flexibility as to what is a priority.
I also have the a9+, mostly just a kiosk for Home Assistant running Fully Kiosk browser.
I also picked up the S10 Ultra monster size tablet for general use.
And as usual, I just downloaded the Oneui8 Beta for s24 this morning, already had my watch 7 on Beta 8. I’m a sucker for Beta’s lol. Hopefully nothing major breaks.
I can’t find that message from Samsung, it may not be available anymore, it was a previous Beta.
I can say she’s outside in her garden and the Wyze cameras are pinging like crazy.
Google Pixal also does similar with notifications, baked in our phones these days.
I found that official reply from Samsung Beta.
Hello,
Thank you for the detailed suggestion and for sharing your experience regarding the MAX_PACKAGE_NOTIFICATIONS behavior.
You’re absolutely right—some notifications, especially from apps like security cameras, can be critical, and it’s understandable how hitting the notification limit could become a problem in those scenarios. While this limit is designed to prevent UI overload and preserve system stability, we agree that flexibility for user-prioritized apps would be ideal.
Your idea of adding user-controlled toggles (defaulted OFF for safety) to allow unlimited notifications for selected apps is a smart and practical suggestion. We’ve shared this feedback with the relevant team for review and future consideration.
We truly appreciate your attention to detail and commitment to improving the One UI experience.
Regards,
One UI Beta Team
And if you have Goodlock installed, Notistar can keep a running history of notifications, mine is set for 30 days.
That may be helpful until or if there’s a resolution.
Based on updated information from @G2740 I’m closing this thread. It would appear the issue lies with Samsung (and others).
I’ve looked in detail at every Wyze notification (60+) from the phone in the last 24 hrs and except for the one I referenced in my screenshot above and one other all times have been within a minute.
Thanks for clearing this up @G2740

They are sporadic. Sometimes in seconds, sometimes never.
