It is very tedious trying to find what triggered the camera especially if the recording is long on my SD card. A fast forward would really be nice on v1. Otherwise a great system, just ordered more v2 cameras. I like you can expand the time line with a swipe but it does not help on long recordings.

The SD card recording is a totally separate feature comparing to your cloud alert upload. Even if you turn off motion/sound alert in the ‘Alert Settings’ page, you can still record on SD card by turning on ‘Local recording on SD card’. Yes, we know there is a need for fast forward. The feature is p…

In addition to adding a Fast Forward button (and Rewind and Pause I assume), I’d like to see a button that immediately advances to the next alert event in the timeline, assuming of course you have “Record alerts only” selected and there are gaps in the timeline to skip over.

We have pause already in V1.2. We will have fast forward but rewind is a TBD. Our current design may not allow us to do rewind easily. I don’t want to over-promise-but-not-deliver. I depends on our resource and other priorities. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. What about my idea of a button that would advance (skip over non-recorded space) to the next alert event in the timeline?

How is there no fast forward already? That’s really frustrating. I have an alert video of a USPS package being delivered to my house. When I got home the package wasn’t there. None of the alert videos captured throughout the day show what happened to it. Is there really no way for me to find ou…

What you can do is remove the card and ussing a card reader review the videos on a computer using any programme. a bit cumbersome but it works

I recently had a porch pirate steal, ironically, my second Wyze camera from a box on my porch. My other Wyze camera is point to the walkway, but there is no way to quickly scan to see all the motion events. The Nestcam puts indicators on the timeline so you know when motion events occurred. Both fas…

You can remove the Sim card and play it on another computer with video software and then use the fast forward function. You need to have a SIM card reader. It’s a bit cumbersome but it works

Yea, I know that the post I’m replying to is several weeks old… Assuming that you can see the package on your existing camera, repeatedly scroll forward a bit (let’s say a half hour) and see if it’s still there. When you get to it not being there, split the difference. Repeat until you watch the …
