As a workaround you might be able to accomplish this with multiple Android profiles.

Account switching or multiple account support for those who have cameras/hardware in multiple locations under different accounts - ex, home and office.

I would add (now that Iāve given it a bit more thought) to ensure the utmost security, only MFA enabled accounts should be a allowed to log into more than one app. We wouldnāt want someone who has managed to phish several account usernames/passwords to log all them into their app and watch. We should also Have the ability to view recent IP logins from a Wyze web portal and log anyone out that we donāt recognize.

Please allow a way to add multiple accounts in one Wyze application. It is needed to have all accounts active for simultaneous camera viewing, yet have separate payment methods for each of the separate sets of cameras at multiple property locations without the need to log in & out or timely switch out the credit card accounts upon renewals of each location.

On the Next release can we add profiles? I have multiple locations that I need to switch locations in iOS App without signing out and back in.
Does it make sense?
Thank you.

My wish is to be able to use multiple wyze accounts using the app without logging one off and signing on with the other.

I thought I had nothing to say but āme tooā; I was wrong.
Iāve used/enjoyed Wyze cameras at home, and 4/5 kept working for about 3+ years now.
Today I was asked to survey which cameras to buy for the office- not for āheavyā security, but to see when people are waiting to meet, who came in, etc. By not currently having the ability to add/change/choose between accounts on my phone, I have to decide which non-Wyze brand to use/recommend for several cameras. I like Wyze, but I canāt have others in the office ALSO viewing my homeās cameras on my current account, and I must have access myself to the new office cameras. This will affect which brand I buy, regardless of my own preferences. This is both sad, and not Wyze.

A way to have multiple accounts on the same app.
Hi community!!
I love these products I install them at my job and my personal life. My employees are asking for access to the devices that I have at work but my issue is I have my personal devices at my home on the same app. This makes it complicated because that allows them to be able to control things at my home and my business. If there was a simple way to switch between one account to the other in the app it would be amazing. This would allow me to continue to buy these products for my business and expand the products that I purchase for my home. No one wants their employees to check on them on a Saturday evening. Lol please vote and get this feature added so I can purchase more products and not have to go to a different solution for my home or my business.
[Mod Edit] Merged with an existing wishlist topic. Give it a vote to help it along!

The answer here is to implement what Instagram does. You can have multiple accounts under different email addresses logged in at the same time AND receive notifications for each account that are labeled in the lock screen according to the account being notified. It works brilliantly and has existed for many years. As another poster said, I simply CANNOT buy Wyze cams for my office security because I already use them at home and thereās no way to get notifications for both on the same device. This is costing Wyze TONS of money.

Thereās probably not enough people who are requesting this to warrant the development expense for them. Itās obviously doable, plenty of other apps have this functionality built in.
Thereās no way Iām adding my home cameras to my work account where other people can access them (and vice-versa), and itās a pain to log out and log back in to switch to check up on things. Iām adding my voice to the chorus - please add this!
Same problem here. My work around is to use wyze web with one account (work) and the app with my home account. Itās not perfect as you lose quite a bit of functionality with wyze web, but it does the job to check live cameras, for now, just not events.
Currently if you want to have separate sets of cameras for home/work/your-aging-parents-house/etc, it seems like Wyze thinks you should just:
- get a second phone
- a second phone number
- a new email address
- and then essentially pretend you are someone else
ā¦ and create a second Wyze account for the new set of cameras.
That is just incomprehensible. I admit you could probably skip having the second phone if you were willing to type in a secure user/password every time you wanted to change camera sets, but thatās a giant PITA too.
Ability to Access 2 accounts without signing out and in
I have camera groups im monitoring under 2 different accounts. I had 2 phones signed into each one, now im only going to be using one phone.

Sounds very useful. Of course you can use sharing for this, but helping my dad admin his account would be helpful in many non-sharing cases.
This is an absolute must add imo
I have the Wyze app setup just fine for home use - now work would like me to install them - and there is no way to management both from my phone. I donāt want to the work cameras on my personal account - if I log out of my personal account and log into a new work account, then I cannot get notifications for my personal account (cameras at home). And if I combine them in one account I will have the work camera features billed to my personal credit card, which I also do not want.
I have 2 accounts and need this to be able to see playback on each account I have to logoff and back on. Would being able to share playback with another user be easier?
