Yes. I am familiar. I thought we were focusing on V3 cams specifically.
Iāve installed other WYZE cameras in the past 2 months that work fine. Even the pan cam v3 works.
Were any regular v3 cameras setup in the last 2 months? My observation is the Events Playback button problem is mainly affecting recently setup v3 cameras.
Yes, all of my cameras were installed in the past 2 months. (15)
My (3) V3 Wyze Cams were purchased and set up within the last two weeks.
I setup 2 V3ās this month neither will play back events from the SD card. I have 6 older V3 cams that work just fine. I am subscribed to Cam Plus.
Update:
I live chatted with WYZE support yesterday, (they actually responded in the holiday, (but arenāt they located in China?) I also forwarded 5 logs for each of my five v3s. After complaining about the lack of previous response on this issue I was contacted via email by a service tech who said they didnāt have a way to view the logs and he was forwarding them to the engineers. I told the live chat person that I thought they were just using stall tactics.
Letās keep after them on this topic, donāt let this topic close until it is resolved to our satisfaction.
We could call for a general strike but I was only able to get one to commit (weakly) last year and I doubt much has changed in that respect.
It doesnāt make sense.
I have been lucky as well while some friends have not.
I doubt that it is luck. It seems to be the chance you take with that cam you are given. Fate?
āā¦ā¦just using stall tactics.ā Aināt dat da troof.
I just think itās buggy hardware that no one knows how to fix.
Luckily mine work.
Bla da bla da blaā¦ from Wyze. Itās been monthsā¦ when will this be fixed??? or send me an address/contact so I can get these POCās replaced.
We just got the pan v3 today. We are having the same issue.
My other v1, v2, and v3s are not experiencing this.
Same issue here.
When viewing an event video on a Cam Pan v3, clicking the icon to go directly to the SD video results in this message:
If I back out of the event video, go to āHomeā in the app, select the camera, and select SD card video from live camera view I can access the SD card video fine.
This happens on all of my five (5) Cam Pan v3 cameras, but none of my three (3) Cam Pan v1 cameras. I canāt check the Cam Pan v2 because I had given it to a friend a while back and donāt have one.
Yes, Iāve restarted all my cameras, and uninstalled/reinstalled the app, blah, blah, blah.
Iāve reseated and reformated (in the camera) all my SD cards. They are all Sandisk 256GB High Endurance cards.
Same behavior on an Android 7 tablet, Android 13 tablet, and Android 13 phone.
I suspect this began after the last firmware updates on my Cam Pan v3s. Or maybe the last App update, as I did both around the same timeframe.
Iām on the Cam Unlimited subscription plan.
Iām on the most current firmware and app version.
Latest App version: 2.50.6.469
Latest Firmware: 4.50.4.9222

(s) This issue has been around since February 2024. Out of 12 cameras I have one that will not playback from events page and that is my newest March 2024 V3.
Iām at a loss for why the silence from WYZE. Not as much as an acknowledgement. Some response, even a small one would be helpful.
WYZE! Please RESPOND!
Maybe their To-Do list has a typo that says To-Donāt Do.
Iāve stated my opinion about this bug multiple times and I repeat; this is an easy bug fix, why?
Because they have the piece of code thatās already working. Thatās the SD card access from the cameraās live view.
And more importantly, if they have a source code management software in place (git or similar), itās easy to backtrack in time to see which particular code change broke it.
Mine too, I donāt think they know how to fix this.
Having the same issue. Canāt playback SD from Events page. Says I donāt have an SD Card installed, but I can playback from Live View. Itās frustrating to have to scroll all the way back to the specific time of the event, especially if itās not a super recent event.
