How to have notification of sound being detected. Third cam pan v3 i try and I tried to talk to 6 people from wyze ...so i turn to the community

I recall discussion in this topic (near this post) about how two pathways[1] essentially lead to the same screen. The distinction I’m trying to be clear about, which I think may be confusing and not recognized by a lot of users, is this:

Event Recording choice “Customize” screen[2] 1st column[3] “Other”[4]?
All Events Customize Detections TAG
Smart Detection Events Customize Recordings RECORD

I think the failure to recognize this difference has cause a fair amount of confusion for Forum users, particularly in cases where an establish subscriber is trying to assist a new non-subscribed user, because they’re describing different things without realizing it.

That doesn’t really address @samsam’s issue, but I think it’s important to keep in mind, especially when those “Complete Motion Detected” and “Sound Detected” notifications problems arise for subscribers.


  1. Example:
    • Settings ➜ Event Recording ➜ All Events ➜ Customize Detections
    • Settings ➜ Notifications ➜ Manage ↩︎

  2. This same screen will be shown for Settings ➜ Notifications ➜ Manage based on the “RECORDING PREFERENCES” selection on the Event Recording screen. ↩︎

  3. This is in addition to “NOTIFY” column, which both the “Customize Detections” and “Customize Recordings” screens show. ↩︎

  4. Are “Other Motion” and “Other Sounds” present as options to select/deselect? ↩︎
