StevenA,
Hopefully this will stay on the Fix-It Friday list, it is really an aggravation for me.
I may have 100 events in a day, and when you have to return to the list, then scroll down, it is a PAIN.
Please Wyze fix this problem with the Android App!

Please look into the video stuttering on Android playback with the V3 and V3Pro cameras.
I have Cam+ yearly subscription, and it happens on the current android client.
The videos play fine over webview, but stutter on my Pixel 6a with Android 13.
All cameras have current firmware, and the app is up-to-date. The V2 cameras do NOT stutter.
V3 Pros at 4.58.11.4679 V3s at 4.36.11.4679 Android app is at 2.44.5 (330)
Here is the ongoing thread on the subject:
Latest Android app update still shows CamPlus filters as unusable. @WyzeJasonJ

Great News, I checked it on my Android phone, and it is fixed!
If they could get the stuttering on playback for the V3 and V3 pro cameras fixed on Android 13 that would be awesome!

I am still on v3 firmware 4.36.10.4054 with no stutter. Maybe you can roll back to older firmware.
Good afternoon! 
Thank you for your patience with us! We have our issue submissions for September and are happy to provide these updates to you.

Forum - Wyze Cam v3 Pro status light is not working properly, light will turn on when motion is detected but not recording and according to documentation it is only supposed to turn red when recording
We are running a fix for this through QA this week. We’ll let you know the outcome!
- Let’s Take a Look at Some Previous Submissions -
Core - Error 3001 is happening on cameras such as Wyze Cam v2
We have started a gradual release for Wyze Cam v2 and Wyze Cam Pan v1 firmware that fixes this problem! Please let us know if you continue to experience Error Code 3001 after updating to the 9.2351 firmware.
Core - Cameras appear offline in the app, though they are online and viewable *
We began a gradual release for firmware that helps with this! Please keep an eye out for firmware 4.36.11.5859. For those using the firmware already, has it helped?
Core - Playback stutters when selected for the first few seconds of Playback from the microSD card
The gradual release of firmware 4.36.11.5859 also should resolve this problem! Please let us know how it performs when you receive it.
Forum - Wyze Cam v3 microSD card Playback is skipping the first minute of every hour (excluding midnight)
This issue is also addressed in firmware 4.36.11.5859! For people with the update, is it doing well for you?
Discord - Camera time and notification time do not match
We believe we’ve identified the root cause of this. In the meantime, please try manually changing your cell phone’s time zone to a different one, leave it in the other time zone for 5 - 10 minutes, and then change it back. We’ve heard back from customers that this workaround has helped with this problem. If this hasn’t worked for you, please let us know!
Reddit - Wyze Cam Pan v3 does not return to set home position
We’re currently planning to release a firmware update that works on this issue to beta next week. We’ll keep you informed!
Facebook - Cam Plus subscribers unable to filter events
We’re working on changes to the app that will take place in an update after the upcoming 2.45 app release. That should help with this! In the meantime, we’ll continue to seek solutions for this problem.
Forum - Wyze Sprinkler Controller schedule skipping days
Looks like we still can’t reproduce this issue. But we’ll keep an eye out for other ideas and feedback for a while longer.

We don’t have a further update for this one yet. We’ll let you know when a fix heads to QA! At this point, we’re still checking on the submitted logs.
Thanks for reading! Have a wonderful weekend.

Does that mean you consider this fixed? A few of us still have the problem.

We put a fix for this on the cloud side! Is anyone still having trouble with this? If not, we’ll remove this from the update list next week.

Thanks again for fixing that Android App bug where the Event Viewer returned to the top of the list instead of where you left off. This was a big deal for me. If you have over a hundred events to look through, having to scroll to get back to the spot where you left off was really frustrating.
THANKS VERY MUCH!

Well, we don’t really like saying this. But the firmware we were hoping to release does not meet our expectations, so this is on pause again. We’re discussing these issues and will provide an updated timeline later when we have more information. We appreciate your patience.

Again, this is not fixed for me;

Could someone just let us know if this can be fixed?
I’ve seen someone post that this issue is fixed if you set up you cameras using an Apple device. Could Wyze send me an iPad?

No iPad for you.

Seapup,
I saw your post in the Wyze News thread that this is broken again in Android App Version 2.45.5 (347).
Obviously someone had an older version checked out (withOUT the event viewing return fix), and made changes to it, then checked it back into “go live” without fully testing it.

I have no answers to your questions as I don’t work for Wyze and don’t have the ability to directly ask the dev or CM team questions. 
You are most likely correct though, someone probably checked in a patch to old code and checked it back in.

Too many factors to know for sure and I doubt Wyze will expose their internal IDE, version control and CM/QA choices, procedures and policies. I wouldn’t.

You are right, I just hate seeing the same bugs creeping back into production.

Good natured piling on allowed?
Imagine an app or firmware (like in a security camera) as a complex puzzle made up of many interconnected pieces. Each piece represents a different feature or function, like taking photos, recording video, or sending alerts.
Now, when the developers work on this puzzle, they’re often trying to make it better. They might fix a piece that was broken, like a piece that made the camera not work correctly sometimes. Or, they might add new pieces to make the puzzle more exciting, like a new feature that lets you zoom in on the camera feed.
The challenge is that making changes to one piece can sometimes accidentally affect other pieces nearby that used to be perfectly shaped, but now have to change to accommodate the new piece that is shaped differently. It’s a bit like if you were fixing one part of your bicycle, and suddenly, the wheel starts wobbling even though you didn’t touch it. It’s because everything in the puzzle is connected, and changes in one area can have unexpected consequences in another.
So, when developers release updates with bug fixes and enhancements, they’re doing their best to improve the overall experience. But because of all these interconnected pieces (some of which they can’t see or anticipate being affected), it’s possible that something might not work as expected when they change one thing to make another better. This is why you might notice that sometimes, after an update, a feature that used to work perfectly may not work as well as before.
That’s the end of the simple explanation to the lay person. Then there is the demand about testing EVERYTHING to make sure everything works perfectly with the updates. I’ve worked as a professional QA tester and I don’t care what anyone says, It’s impossible to test everything. I like to share this simple example:

This is a really good explanation. I’m currently working on a pretty complex system, mainly consisting of a web app, and it’s amazing how you can make the smallest little change, use it for weeks, and then find out it broke something else and no one has noticed or reported the issue because it’s so small and I would have never thought to test it.
The relationship of every line of code is so complex you can never keep track of it. Automated A/B testing is the ideal solution, but it can only test so many things, and you have to write those tests which can have bugs of their own.
In this specific case it sounds like a VCS (version control) error, as in the branch with this change was not up to date with the branch that includes the fix for the scrolling event. An issue like this should not happen, but it sounds like this update was rushed to get some security patch out because I don’t know why else they would release an entire update for that one little FAQ change. But that’s just speculation
