Trees Not Vehicles!

Thank you for the failed insult, but I am just an experienced Wyze user trying to help an inexperienced Wyze user to understand how the cam they bought works. I am not employed by Wyze. I, like you, am a Wyze Cam customer. This is a user to user forum where we are all riding the same Wyze bus. I just have a lot more time riding. I volunteer here in the forum to help others get the most out of their cams. I didn’t create them. I didn’t program them. I just know how to use them and how they work. You are quite welcome for the assistance.

Only if a person was in one of the frames uploaded in the video. If the tree waves, video uploads, and there isn’t a person identified in any frame of that video then there is no tag applied and no Person notification sent.

If you are using the cam as a security cam to watch your vehicle, as I do with my 25+ cams of all different models, the most comprehensive way is to:

  • Turn off Vehicle Detection
  • Turn On Person Detection
  • Use the Detection Zone to block out places where people would not be and to exclude vegetation from excessive motion activations
  • Increase the sensitivity so that it doesn’t “miss” anything
  • Set the cam to upload all motion videos
  • Filter the Events tab to show only Smart Detection AI videos
  • Turn off notifications for All Other Motion
  • Turn on notification for Person Detections
  • Install a high capacity High Endurance SD Card and set it to record continuous. With a 256GB card that will give you about a month of HD 24\7 history.

Also, the forum has a method for requesting features be added to cams. It is called the Wishlist. I have linked a topic that might help you understand how to use the wishlist. Also, the request for the Wyze AI to only tag and notify moving objects, as well as ignoring background scenery, have been requested already. I have linked both below as well so you can follow the link, Vote for the topic at the top to support it, like :heart: some posts, and add your own post to the bottom as a reply. I’m sure one of them will meet your needs.
