When selecting “Trust this device” at the prompt of the authentication login screen, device never appears in the Trusted Devices section. Is some other step required in order to have the app set it?
Phone LG G7 ThinQ
OS Android 10
App version 3.2.0.580
If so when I use it it seems to work. In your post you referenced the Trusted Devices section. I am not familiar with that section. Can you post the navigation to that section?
One thing I notice when comparing @Seapup’s list to my own is that my list is showing only logins via Google Chrome (one Windows and two Linux instances). None of my mobile devices show up on that list, and I don’t use Chrome as the default browser on any of those.
I’m not saying that’s the issue, because I would expect Wyze’s system to be able to determine the browser type used to authenticate (assuming the browser is telling the server the truth and not trying to obfuscate its identity too much) and to show that in the Trusted Devices list, but it does seem weird to me that my mobile logins aren’t there. I don’t know what the deal is.
Perhaps the issue is linked to the Android version. Mine is 10, which is a bit old, and it’s possible that the app is not able to get certain device attributes/permissions if it has been developed targeting a newer Android version.
Android 13 (Go edition) running Wyze app version 2.50.9.512
I don’t think it’s an OS version issue, but I really don’t know why these devices aren’t showing up in the list. Do you use Google Chrome as your default browser? I wouldn’t think that would be the issue, but it’s a difference I notice when I compare lists as I noted above.
If you’re asking specifically about your app login, then you shouldn’t have to do that—at least that hasn’t been my experience. The only times I’ve really had to log back into my account in the app itself have been when I’ve intentionally logged out to clear the local cache and data while trying to resolve an issue or troubleshoot something for another user.
It says, “The validity period for trusted devices is 90 days.”
What do you do after 90 days?
Does the phone going off the trusted devices list after 90 days present any vulnerabilities or loss of functions?
That’s what the authorization Web site says during login, yes, but I don’t know how accurate that is. The Trusted Devices screen in the app says this:
The validity period for trusted devices is 30 days
What are we supposed to do with that discrepancy?
For what it’s worth, I just logged into my Wyze account in Firefox on Linux and then went to check my Trusted Devices, and that screen still shows only the Chrome logins. I don’t know how to interpret any of this.
