Cam Pan v3 - larger pan tilt control icons
Got the new Pan V3 love it just wish the contols were larger like the older Pan controls
Have you played with your android OS display settings? looks like the size of the control wheel is influenced by the display size settings in android.
Would that make everything else also larger. The controls on my old pan are fine only the new pan cameraâs are small
I really dont want to enlarge all my apps and everything on my phone just for 2 cameras
Relocate DATE/TIME STAMP in camera view
Currently, the CAMERA NAME is on the LEFT of a GREYED-OUT BAR at the top of a camera VIEW, but the DATE/TIME STAMP is at the LOWER RIGHT of the same view. If the view is LIGHT or COMPLEX, it makes the DATE/TIME difficult to read. If the DATE TIME were relocated to the right side of the greyed-out bar at the top, it would make it EASIER TO READ, and would be in a place where it wouldnât interfere with the display, since it is ALREADY greyed out.
This is on the GROUP view only. Once you visit the individual cameras live view page, the top âgreyed out bar with the camera nameâ is no longer there.
The camera name in the group view is only ovelayed in the group view in the app, whereas the time/date stamp is an overlay that is imbedded within the video at the camera level.
If you move the time/date stamp to the âgrey barâ in its current state, then the time/date stamp wouldnt be shown at the camera level on the video itself, and only in the app.
I merged your request to this existing wishlist that talks about font readability within the Wyze app.
Thanks, TONY! Your perspective is APPreciated!
Please provide contrast to the download status message when downloading a time lapse video. It is nearly impossible to read the white letters against the gray and white static image.
I cannot read to get an idea of how long the download will take, an estimate of which should be provided by the download process.
I also cannot see if the download stalls out.
Thanks
Thank you!

On Off button colors
Would love to see the ON button color changed from solid white with green border & letters, to solid green button with white ON letters. It would be much easier to distinguish between the ON and OFF buttons, for the visually impaired ( like my wife & myself)
Thanks very much!
I too would like to see some color options in the iOS app. This thread was started (as of today) over 4 years ago and has 91 responses, yet thereâs been no change to the color or font options. Why Wyze? As others have said, maybe the app is fine if you are 25 or have good vision. But some of us are getting older and would like/need color options to make the app more user friendly.
Please address this soon!
Bolder darker fonts/ gradient lines in app for those of us that are vision challenged, no light colors please.
Not all of your users are twenty years old with perfect vision.
Please avoid light grays and light colors in general in the app.
I share other customer concerns about the legibility of the interface in general. Wyze has a great sense of âbrandâ, but the brand style guidelines donât really work in the phone app where screen real estate is at a premium. To be fair, there is a LOT of functionality to fit in every screen, so the type sort of has to be small. But as a general rule of UI/UX design, the smaller the type the higher the contrast should be. Small gray text on white is NOT good design, even though it looks stylish to younger designers.
One of my concerns is that the iPhone app does not seem to support Appleâs Accessibility controls at all. In Settings > Accessibility > Per App Settings, I can add Wyze to the list and then I SHOULD be able to make changes to the app interface using those controls. When I choose Bold text or increase the size of the text, nothing happens in the app. If you want to be an iOS developer, you should go all in and support their controls â ESPECIALLY for accessibility.
One of the reasons I LOVE Wyze devices is that (in general) they just work. Theyâre easy for my 89-year-old mother in law to understand. But the app interface does not make it easy for older people to use the devices that were built to be so easy to use.
So please consider adding some user-selectable controls for interface design, such as âhigh contrastâ that simply turns on a different color palette.
Also, all the shortcut buttons look exactly the same. This does not make it easy for someone with poor eyesight to differentiate between shortcuts/rules. You could pretty easily add the ability to change the color and/or icon of each of these buttons at the time the shortcut is created (or even afterward). Being able to set, for example, the front camera alarm to red with a horn icon, or turn off notifications with a no-sound icon, would go a LONG way to making these icons (and shortcuts) as a whole more useful.
As I have said before, it is very obvious that Wyze has absolutely zero interest in fixing this.
And at 64, I agree, the color scheme is HORRIBLE.
I have visual disability and it is simply too hard to tell whether a camera is on or off in the app. WYZE, please fix this or provide an alternate solution.
Still in progress sin e 2019?
Bring on the contrast.
Iâve argued elsewhere on the Forum that there are areas of the app where the lack of color contrast makes certain features difficult, even for people without visual impairments, and I appreciate the discussion in this topic that mentions accessibility, because I believe that should be an important part of Wyzeâs focus since they say this is their mission:
To make great technology accessible to everyone.
I realize that weâre probably using different definitions of âaccessibleâ here, but I think thereâs a real case to be made for Wyze to use an expanded definition to meet the needs of its current and potential customers.
@bruce4bama, have you tried using emoji at the beginning of your Shortcuts titles? That doesnât really fix the issue of the Shortcuts icons themselves, but it can add an additional visual cue that might make it easier to differentiate similar items at a glance. Iâve been doing something similar with routines for a while now.
