Time delay between detection and notification

[cvts2000]

Thanks for a good product and great support. I opted in for person detection light. Since then, the time from all detections to notification has increased. If the delay is caused by a person detection communication to a server, could the motion detection notification come in at first detection and the person detection notification later? thanks.

Welcome to the user community @cvts2000!

Notification Latency… Hot topic here in the threads. Lots to read about how much this is happening and why.

Once the V3 cam detects motion within it’s detection zone, the video is uploaded to the cloud server where the AI Bot interrogates the entire full frame for the AI you have specified… In your case Person in CamPlus Lite.

If, within the first 6 seconds, it positively identifies a person, and you have PD notifications on, it sends you the push notification. But, videos in CPL can be up to 12 seconds long. If the AI Bot takes more than 6 seconds to identify the person, it will NOT send you a PD push notification. Instead, at the 6 second threshold, it will try to send you a generic ‘motion’ detected push notification. BUT… You MUST have notifications turned on for ‘All Other Motion Events’ to get this generic push.

If you have that off because you, like me, can’t stand the constant barrage of useless motion notifications for sunbeams, bugs, and headlights, then you will get no notification at all.

Check out these topics, follow the links therein. You should get an idea of how deep into the woods Wyze is on this one.

Hope this helps a bit.

5 to 10 minute or longer notification delays

I’m noticing extremely long notification delays recently. Some are as long as 5 to 10 minutes. When I entered the house through the front door the timestamp on the event shows as 16:51 but the notification arrived at 17:15. That’s 24 minutes after the event.

V3 Delayed notifications

My notifications come 30+ seconds late and I’m wondering if this is normal. Currently have 2 cams experiencing the same issue. I’m on the “lite” plan so unsure if this is a result of that? I do recall getting instant notifications in January when I first got the cams, but it’s since deteriorated without changing any settings.

Notifications suddently stopped working without any config changes

For about one year my notifications on Cam-V3 worked fine on Android. From today afternoon it suddently stopped working. Tried all checks on phone settings/notifications and Cam V3 Push-notification settings. I have the latest version 4.36.8.15 and it says my cam-V3 is up-to-date. I tried loading Wyze app on iOS and another android phone., but no notifications., but all apps are detecting the Event-motion triggered. My relative shared his camera and its notifications are received by me on my…

Notifications are showing up late

I had a event recorded at 8:11 pm and I didn’t get a notification till 8:44pm. Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem.

Delayed notifications

Today I received a notification roughly two hours after the event time in the video. The camera was working great for weeks and then all of a sudden it was having connection issues. So, I moved it to a router that should have less obstructions in the signal’s path. It’s still not great, 76% signal strength per the app. Several times I’ve tried to do a restart device from the app and that fails probably 95+% of the time. So, that’s the situation, but today’s delayed notification raises some …

On our wifi its about 2-4 sec,on carrier network its longer 4-8 seconds

I haven’t timed it, but I have long suspected that I am experiencing delays on LTE because I am on a lower than the basement discount bulk reseller plan of TMobile (Mint). Your experience makes me believe it more, especially during peak times.

they could send the notification the same time it starts recording… but its a money thing get cam plus…bet its instant

… but its a money thing get cam plus…bet its instant

Believe me, it’s not instant at all. It’s exactly the same. That is the reason I cancelled CamPlus and switched all my cams to Lite.

In my opinion, the only advantage is that you get longer recordings on the cloud. Not worth the money.
