Hi folks,
We just released Wyze Cam V2 firmware to the public. We’ll release the official V1.4 apps later this week. Stay tuned!
Wyze Cam V2 firmware V4.9.2.18
The changes include:
Added Alexa integration support
Added V1.4 App IoT feature support
Fixed an issue when IoT status is not updated correctly
Yes there will be manual on how to use Alexa integration. But we haven’t officially released our Skill in the Alexa Skill Store yet. We’ll release it as soon as possible, hopefully by next week.
Of course! You can tell your Alexa device to show your camera’s live stream and also hear the sound from it. But you won’t be able to use two way audio or view the playback or notification videos with it. It also works with the shared users so anyone having access to the camera can view the live feed from the Alexa device.
Updated 2 of my wyzecams to the new firmware before I found out I could not connect to them. Stopped updating for my other 2 wyzecams until I found out I had to unplug, reboot the cameras before they would connect again. So I got the 2 firmware updated cams working, connecting, but still not going to do the updates for my other 2 cameras until they figure what’s wrong with the firmware update
Flashing via SD did fix my Cam V2 that choked on firmware 4.9.2.18 upgrade!
It is refreshing to see that Wyze allows customers the ability to re-flash the memory rather than send it back…
The engineers thought that out well allowing reflash via the SD, Other devices I’ve dealt with required JTAG to re-flash and that’s not so consumer friendly…
