I am experiencing a VERY frustrating issue. The wyze cam v3 and the wyze cam outdoor both have an issue formatting SD cards. I have tried several brand new cards. For example: Samsung EVO Select 256 gb. The camera does not recognize the card and will not use it or format it. Wyze cam v1 and v2 r…

Officially the cameras only support up to 32 gig cards, so unacceptable is probably not the word Id use… The v3 and outdoor dont handle them the same as v1 and v2 for sure, but many of us have found they’ll work if you first format them to FAT32 (use this: https://www.softpedia.com/get/System/Hard-…

Can you show me where the 32gb limitation is documented for V3? [image] Wyze Cam v3 Tech Specs Wyze Cam v3 Device Details Color: White, with black accents Materials: Body: Polycarbonate Lens: Glass + plastic Camera Dimensions: 2.05 in x 2.01 in x 2.3 in (52 mm x 51 mm x 58.5 mm) Cam…

That is not documentation. That is just a comment from Brenda.

[image] mattnis: That is not documentation. That is just a comment from Brenda Brenda works for Wyze, and the Faq’s are basically Wyze documentation. They will only support up to a 32gb card. I do not know their reasons, but 32 is the largest they support, some people have got larger ones t…

Not some people, but practically everyone has been using more than 32gb. I have been using more than 32gb on multiple wyze cameras since the beginning without a single issue. It’s only an issue with the latest cameras and even then it’s an issue with initial formatting of the cards not the actual us…

You are 100% correct, I am also facing this issue and I don’t have a windows computer to download any special tools to make my card “just work” like it should, this is truly unacceptable and I know I would not accept the lame answers here for any of the products or software that I develop and suppor…

Thank you. If for have an older wyze cam then you can format the card in the older device and then use with v3 or outdoor.

I just took my 256GB SD card to my friend’s house because he has Windows, we did the format with the GUI format tool- still doesn’t work, I just wasted my money buying that SD card. So far I’ve tried formatting it thru the Cam, Formatting it from my Linux box to FAT32, Formatting it in Windows usin…

I’ve used 128gb. 256gb might be pushing it too far. Officially, they support only 32gb. The SD card brand might also be a factor.
