How to set up notifications/alerts to my phone

I believe it’s possible to set things up so I get a notification on my phone when a camera detects a specific thing (“package detected at front door” is what I’m hoping to do), but I can’t figure out how to do this.

Specific detections can be seen under “Events”, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to specify an alert for detection of X at camera Y. “Notifications” are enabled at the both camera level and the app level. I looked at “Rules”, but that doesn’t seem to be it.

Is this possible? If so, is there a “how to” guide somewhere?

Do you mean this:

Thanks. I figured out what I was missing.

I needed to tap the little bell icon on the home screen so it’s un-crossed. I guess this is a global “mute”?

So, in case it helps someone else:

  1. Enable notifications for the Wyze App in Android (I assume there’s something similar if you have an iPhone),
  2. Enable notifications in the Wyze app (ie the “bell” should not have a line through it. If it does, press to toggle it).
  3. Under device settings, enable notifications for the camera you want an alert from.
  4. Underneath the notifications slider, check the box(es) for the notification events you want to get a phone alert for.

I was just missing step 2. Now I know what that little bell is for!

I just confirmed that the “package at front door” alert works.
