Definitely!
I have cameras watching my swimming pool area, and get notifications whenever a person is detected near the swimming pool. I also have Wyze contact sensors on the gate to my swimming pool (I have these announced through Alexa when somebody opens the pool gate). Basically nobody uses my pool without me knowing about it. Kids can’t sneak in there without me knowing. That is a huge stress relief for me. And trust me, that’s important. I have a dumb little nephew who can’t swim that will run and jump in the pool without a life jacket or floatie on and drown himself. 
But even excluding that, accidents happen and I can make sure that there’s always an adult present.
Probably decreased my teenage daughter’s quality of life because she couldn’t get away with having party ragers at our house while we were away from home or sneaking people in at night or sneaking out at night. Poor girl. 
I have a really dark stairway, and I put up some really cool light strips under the railing that illuminate the stairs automatically anytime somebody enters the stairway at all. Nobody has to flip switches or remember or anything like that. It turns on and off all by itself really fast and everybody can always see in the dark area really clearly. Visitors often get really excited about it and tell me how awesome it is and how much they really like that automation. I probably get more comments and praise about that automation than any of my other ones and it’s using a Wyze light strip.
I have 2 kitchens lighting fully automated with Wyze bulbs and sensors and cameras. If anyone enters into them, the lights automatically turn on, and when there is no person in the room for like 5 or 10 minutes, the lights automatically turn off. It is so great. Really great.
My teenage daughter always forgets to turn basically anything off. So I set up automations that when she leaves home all of her stuff automatically turns off. No more frustration, negative feelings, or annoyance or wasted money.
I have automations using my Wyze cameras That check to make sure there are no cats near the robot cat litter box before I allow it to cycle and clean itself. So basically it works like this: the robot cat litter gets stepped on by a cat, I get a trigger that a cat used the litter, that trigger initiates an automation. Once the wyze cameras have shown that there is no cat present in the room for at least x amount of time, then it will trigger clean the litter automatically. Everything stays fresh. The cats don’t get curious and try to play with it while it’s cycling, or in some cases some of the cats get scared when the litter cycles and then not want to use it anymore. Which would mean that they go the bathroom somewhere else instead which can be messy and hurt my quality of life (Plus some of my cats refuse to use shared litter boxes if they aren’t kept clean immediately, so doing this helps to make sure all my cats will use the litter box because it’s always kept clean). Wyze cameras help to make sure that I don’t have to clean the litter box everyday (I can easily go a monk without emptying the bin now), And everything continues to smell good and the cats continue to want to use the robot litter box. Definitely a huge improvement in my quality of life from having a regular litter box. Also, I have the litter robot. Send me a notification when the litter bin gets close to full, and other sorts of stuff. It’s made my low maintenance cats even more low maintenance.
Having Wyze with crying detection was very helpful when I had babies and toddlers. I would get alerts whenever there was crying no matter where I was or whether I had a baby monitor with me. V3 cameras were particularly useful as baby monitors because they are the only Wyze camera with the invisible near IR spectrum as an option. ID test the visible far IR spectrum that shows a big red glow. And the babies and toddlers hated it too. I tried a V3 Pro Camera as a baby monitor for a while, and it gave my toddler nightmares. She would wake up screaming and crying and saying that it was the camera making her cry. Finally had to get rid of it and switched to only having a V3 camera in there that wasn’t showing creepy red lights.
I have a combination automation that uses location and my garage floodlight Pro to tell me as soon as my wife gets home from shopping somewhere, so that I can run out to meet her at the car and help carry everything in. That really improves her quality of life.
When my brother-in-law lived here, he used to have a lot of night time pool parties with friends (he had my permission to do this). Just for fun, I would set up an automation that win a specific Wyze camera detected a person between a certain time, it would wait an extra x amount of minutes, then aim a short blast of cold water hose right into the area that likely has people. 
Newbies would scream. Lol
I have contact sensors on my toddlers’ doors that run an automation after bedtime to let us know anytime their door opens when they should be sleeping (sends both of our phones notifications, and does an audio announcement on the Alexa speaker in my home office if I’m working). They might just be going to the bathroom, which is fine, but they also have snuck out trying to do other things they shouldn’t and causing chaos unsupervised. Or what if they try to go knock on the neighbor’s door at midnight to see if they can play now?
I really like having Wyze locks on all my doors and making sure they all lock at night automatically and also whenever everyone is away from home. I also have one on the door separating my upper floor from the basement floor, that I sometimes lock during family gatherings so that my 2 dozen nieces and nephews don’t go down there unsupervised (there is a sump pump hole that somebody could fall into because we don’t have that door functioning correctly currently, and both of our home offices are down there with sensitive info and equipment without very secure locks at the moment (probably going to deadbolt them soon). It’s been useful to be able to lock up the basement and restrict who has access during certain events.
The Wyze sprinkler has been awesome. I don’t even have to think about watering schedules or anything. I just turn on the AI schedule and let it figure out when it should water or not and how much moisture is in the soil. I basically never have to even think about watering my lawn or whether I need to tell it to skip a day from weather or anything.
Yeah, I can. pretty definitely say I get an improved quality of life from my Wyze stuff.

You make a good case! And funny. 
The greatest single contribution by a Wyze naysayer to the body forum! 
…and unlike me, he cuddled with a plushy cam in the crib
