Home Monitoring / Sense hub Siren Volume

[SlabSlayer]

Greetings everyone!

Not sure if you have seen this thread topic, but this issue with the decreased siren volume on the hub was reported in September 2021. The Firmware update in that same month DECREASED the volume. It used to be loud enough to wake me and scare off an intruder. See the first thread link below.

Also, this was brought before the Wyze hearing board In Fix-it Friday as well and received considerable support from the forum. Wyze responded (second post link below) with the explanation that it is a “hardware limitation”. They have stated they are working on an ancillary remedy. Browse around over in those two topics for more info.

Hope this helps! Be safe and well

Sensor hub volume has decreased considerably after latest update

…in particular with the door sensor entrance chime. I used to hear the chime when I would enter through the garage door that’s quite a bit away from the hub. Ever since the latest update, i cannot hear it any longer entering from the garage. Volume has decreased by at least 50% if not more. When the hub had its latest update, I did find that the volume had reverted back to medium, so I flipped back to high. Didn’t make a difference. Anyone else ?

1. Wyze Sense Hub Siren Volume Lower Than Desired

HUB SIREN VOLUME STILL LOWER THAN IT USED TO BE Last Fall, around September, the Hub Volume dropped considerably from a firmware update. The High volume seemed to be at the level the Minimum was before…very, very low. On October 18th firmware 4.32.6.142 was released intending to fix this issue. Per the release notes: Fixed a bug that caused a decrease in Wyze Sense Hub voice prompt volume from last update and while some things had volume restored to higher volume levels, such as the entry …

Response:

The low volume is due to a hardware limitation. We’ve heard your feedback and are working on supporting Wyze Home Monitoring audio on Wyze Chime. This will allow you to decentralize the audio and have it in the rooms that you care about. We’ll share information about it when it’s ready!
