Multiple Wyze apps

possibility to install a second APP with a different account ( like Facebook does) so we can monitor the 2 location in real-time)

Can’t you share devices with other accounts? It’s an option in the settings of each device. You only need one app and it would show your devices as well as the shared devices.

Yes I could do that, and would work for cameras and switches, but I would not have real-time notification of the HMS in the second location, or be able to arm and disarm the system, is that correct?

I’m not sure what all the capabilities would be. I don’t have HMS and all my stuff is on one account so it’s not something I’ve tested. I’ve only noticed the sharing capabilities in the settings of most devices. Might be worth testing with another device and email, just to see what you can and can’t do.

Only one HMS per account…correct. To monitor two locations you need two Wyze accounts/emails, at least so far.

I am asking Wyze to create a 2nd app for iPhone/iPad users. This app has to be named differently by the developer and loaded on the App Store or be available at Wyze.

If you use Wyze cams and devices in multiple locations and want to have separate apps (I.e., home and vacation home. or home and office, or home and parents house, etc) Apple will not allow multiple app co texts on iPhone / iPad unless the second copy has a different name in its app context.

Can Wyze add this feature?

The app can be the production release and be available on Wyze or the App Store as Wyze 2

This will allow a default home app and a second d location without the log off / on and 2FA, etc.

Of course the next logical option is to allow the user to download the app and create multiple copies like Wyze.1, Wyze.2, etc for the number of distinct locations where they are using Wyze products.

This is possible on Android as understand it but not iPhone / iPad without help from Wyze

Thoughts?

Ability to have multiple Wyze apps on your phone, one for each property is excellent!
People won’t need to buy different brands of cameras anymore to achieve this.
So easy for Wyze programmers to do this at basically Zero cost with HUGE Upside for MORE users and SALES. … More customers Satisfaction :slightly_smiling_face:

Agreed! This is a must and a definite need. I hope they can make this happen

Or better yet have the ability to have multiple locations under the same ID i.e Location 1, Location 2. You can see lots of folks want the ability to monitor more than one home from the app

We just sort of did a work-around with this issue. We have two home monitoring systems, They were purchased and registered under two different email addresses. The app for one is on my phone, the app for the other is on my wife’s. She shared the devices on her app with me. So far, however, I cannot control the entire system that is on my wife’s app.
