SD card not looping when full

Hi, this may be an issue with the SD card as it’s an off brand card, but my new Wyze Cam doesn’t loop the recordings, once the card gets down to ~0.49GB remaining it just stops recording, any idea what could be causing this?

Could you explain

Can you not “View Playback” and see recent scenes?
Or does it just remain at ~0.49 GB?
Mine does that but then it starts writing over the oldest frames.

What size card is it? They need to be 32GB or less and FAT formatted.

After several hours when I try to hit view playback it will only show up to a certain point, never starts recording again after that until I format the card. It’s a 4GB fat32 formatted card

This SD card is not working properly on my Android device.

For some reason Wyze does not support 4 GB cards.

Wyze Cam Pan supports 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB microSD cards in FAT32 format. We recommend Class 10 for optimal performance.

Well that’s an odd one. Must be it, thank you

I wouldn’t BET that the 4GB size is a problem but they do specifically list the sizes they support.
