Should be fixed now. Sorry all.

Iâve been doing this for a long time to get 4 cams on the screen in landscape view - I thought this was how everyone did it.
Spotty last night, cams freezing, etc. But all appears to be working now. Chrome and Edge both.
My cameras are back to disconnecting this morning. It started earlier with a disconnection once in a while, and now they wonât stay connected at all. I refresh, they reconnect, and almost immediately disconnect again.
Someone mentioned weak or spotty power supplies may be making disconnections so I installed a 120v duplex outlet with 2 built in USB ports for 1 of my cams. It did not completely fix my dropping issue, but it does seem to be better. My app does not have auto update capabilities so I may see it the new hot fix is available to download yet.
Mine are hardwired, floodlight proâs.

I donât know if anything has been done in the last 4 days, but my V3 pro camera is working as it should, I havenât changed anything and I even restarted it a few times to see if it would work well or not, so Iâm pleasantly surprised by the stability of this unit over the last few days. 4 days. Thanks !

Glad to hear it! I have a new cam pan v3 and a Wyze Cam Outdoor running strong for 2 years. great quality picture.
The only plus the App interface gets from me is that it loads fast. The newer Pan Cam v3 loads within a few seconds. The Outdoor has always taken 10 seconds to be live.
With all the stupid Cam Plus, Cam Pro, Cam Pro Lite? Then there is Home Monitoring, then Sprinklers. With all the charges going in i would like to suggest they rework and merge all their cams into a single interface. ONE screen, multiple cams, same interface. Its like to me a Wyze cam is a Wyze cam. The apps user interface, whether one cam or 5 cams, showing me live one cam on my screen or all 5 cams at the same time!
I honestly donât have a clue what is going in at the Wyze tech and programming and marketing departments. but my math has always been good and i will take an educated guess that they got overwhelmed in all departments and released a product that isnât thought out quite right.
One last gripeâŚ
How many more versions and/or products can Wyze offer consumers that contain the word âCamâ in it? The only thing their cams have in common are their names!
lol
anywho⌠i know i am not the inly one that finds the product is ok. its the App that sucks. it is geared towards marketing, and selling more products. The Shop part of the Wyze App would be better if they would group the items that go with each other together. ie: Light Socket should be available as an Accesory under the only 2 cams it works with. So many damn Cams versions I canât keep them all straight!
say Cam Pan v3 three times as fast as you can!
thanks for reading!

I have three Wyze cams at home and am considering purchasing one for my office. I just need something to point at the door so we know who is coming and going which means the web portal is vital (there are 4 of us monitoring the door). After reading this thread, I think the responsiveness of the Wyze Team means that even if the web portal isnât perfect, its Wyzeâs goal to get there. It also seems that many of the bugs noted in the first post in 11/2023 have been worked out.
Iâd be interested to hear any dissenting opinions. TIA
You might consider putting the work camera on a separate Wyze account. Everybody at your work could be logged into the App and get Person notifications.
I was an early adopter of Wyze cameras. Like many, many others, I went all in hoping to one day be able to view my cameras on the the web. The first version of web view was released on November 23rd, 2021. It has never worked. It was been Wyzeâs goal âto get thereâ since probably 2018. The latest version was a slight improvement, but still nowhere near the dependability for something like you mention (watching a door in your office). Iâve sent logs, called customer service, emailed, router this, ISP that, unplug them, use chrome, use edge, try incognito mode, etc⌠etcâŚand I am still in the exact same place I was 3 years ago. Except, Iâm out a couple hundred dollars for Cam+ subscriptions to be able to view cameras on the web that Iâve never been able to view for more than a few minutes at a time. I still have ALL the same issues I had since the first post about the ânewâ web portal in November 2023. I finally resigned myself to the fact I will probably never be able to reliably view any of my 13 cameras on the web with Wyze. I would highly recommend that you purchase a more dependable product for something so important.

The Edge (and Chrome) browser âShow Controlsâ no longer work.
When trying to use the browser âShow Controlsâ feature I now get disconnected - âWeb Connection Failedâ.
Previously, when using Show Controls, the browser window/view would expand into a true Full Screen view.
The Show Controls Disconnect error/bug started a few weeks ago.
To duplicate the new error/bug
With Edge/Chrome viewing Web Live >
!)Right click on (inside) live web page
2)Left click on âShow Controlsâ (Show All Controls in Chrome)
3)Left click again on(inside) live web page.
Previously this sequence of mouse clicks would expand the web page into a true Full Screen view.
Today, the sequence of mouse clicks disconnects the browser.
Hopefully Wyze fixes this new bug as I often used the Full Screen feature that âShow Controlsâ gave me.
After my post above, I discovered SHOW CONTROLS continues to work correctly when replaying an Event video.
After enabling SHOW CONTROLS in an Event video, and next left clicking on the Event video , the window correctly expands to Full Screen.
The bug/error only occurs with the real-time Live/Web view browser.
I have relocated your posts to this thread so Wyze eyes can be put on it faster. @WyzeSeth is staying on top of the Web view issues. Thanks!

Some people may be using the âYet another autoplay blockerâ plugin or something similar in Chrome, this disables autoplay, so your videos may not be displayed

Only experiencing this issue on the web portal, the mobile app works flawlessly on both Wi-Fi and Cellular connections.
My cams wonât connect or stay connected too. This was working perfectly until they did the update for the security breach.
Are they going to fix this?
It been going on so long I have stopped buying cams and a doorbell and am now considering other cams. I really liked these but the stability issues just wont stop.

@WyzeSeth @WyzeMatt I am still unable to watch my feed live via a browser. I have noticed however that it seems to depend on the network Im on. If im at home on the same network as the camera, the live feed from the browser works fine. If im at work on a separate network, the live feed never loads. Is this expected behavior?
I am still having issues as well. My main camera works fine as long as I leave it alone, but if I try to bring up my second one on the live view or even on my TV (Alexa), the main one quits streaming. If Iâm only streaming my second camera, itâll constantly freeze and never stabilizes like the first one does.
BOTH of these cameras (again, Floodlight Pros) take forever to load up on my app, while all my other cameras come right up.
