New - adding wifi speed under Camera name box

No one needs to know the wifi speed. Thats not why we use the cameras.

We use the cameras to see things happening. When your engineers decide to add a giant box with the name and wifi speed it covers the area we are using your product to see.

So basically your engineers made your product’s use - worse.

Dumb, dumb, dumb push.

At least give us the option to turn that UNWANTED feature off.

Where is it? Which cams? I just checked my battery cam pro and do not see it. I am having trouble with connectivity on some of my cams. If I can turn this on that would be Great

It appears on the bottom of our wired and battery cams

We are a dog daycare. A few dogs got into it on the bottom left corner of the screen and we cant determine why because the engineers decided to cover that section up with this rectage with info we dont want or need.

Camera name is ok, fluctuating wifi speed we dont.

That appears to be web view not the app right?

Some of my cams report the speed in the top left of the app, but very small and unobtrusive. Not sure if there is any way to remove that from web view or not.

I’m not seeing that on the Wyze app now on the webview.

What firmware and app version are you using and confirm are you seeing that on the app or webview?

Welcome to the Forum, @david42! :wave:

What are you using to view the camera feeds? This doesn’t look like the Wyze app or Web View, because in both of those when viewing cameras I see my Cams’ names in the upper-left corner with an icon representing the Cam model. (An exception is when I’m viewing a group using the Monitoring tab, where the camera name doesn’t appear at all unless I tap the screen.) Is that maybe tinyCam Monitor or something else? What Wyze Camera models are you using?

I was just thinking the same thing. In which case, OPs frustration is mis-directed. It does not appear Wyze is who is sending this data to the display but rather a 3rd party app developer.

That’s my immediate read, yeah, which is why I asked for more details.

No bitrate shows on my cams on Webview. The V4 cams never show it but the V3 cams do on the app.Three of these cams are V3

Apparently it’s possible to show it on a Cam v4, but it appears that you have to be using a beta app and tap in a special place to get it to show. Even then, it appears in the upper-left, not the lower-left that @david42’s photo shows, and the details of what the Wyze app displays don’t match what’s being illustrated here, either.

If I tap the time lapse icon on the app I can see the V4 bitrate

Maybe the OP is using different brand of cameras and just stumbled on the Wyze forum by accident :rofl:

Maybe Reolink :laughing:

Yeah, but what I linked to is independent of that and seems to be a troubleshooting feature that’s present in a beta app. I probably shouldn’t have mentioned it, because I’m not trying to cloud the issue. I’d like to see more answers from @david42.

It is the Tiny camera ap. That is who Wyze suggested we use to stream the footage in the lobby of our daycare.

We use TinyCam ap to stream the videos onto the TV in our lobby. Thats the ap Wyze suggested we use.

Anyone use other aps or ways to stream multiple cameras onto a TV?

We have been using TinyCam for nearly a year. Its who Wyze reccommended. But Wyze said it is from their recent push. We havent seen speeds added until last week

That’s not the WiFi speed, that’s the camera bit rate.

At the bottom of the camera live view, there’s a row of buttons. One of them has the letter “i” inside a circle. Keep pressing it until the bit rate info disappears.

Edit — I haven’t used tiny cam pro for a long time and re-installed just now. It has been improved. Now there’s object detection and notification, too. I wonder what else is new.
