V2 Motion Sensors not turning off lights in Alexa

[bryanbuck]

I have been using the V2 motion sensors to turn lights on and off using an Alexa routine. As of about a month ago the sensors were not turning the lights off after not detecting motion. The only way I could get it to work is to set the time to zero.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

I just tested with one of my V2 Motion sensors and turning on a color bulb. It ultimately worked as expected. I did not realize that the default Off is delayed by 30 minutes in Alexa. To make it immediate, chnage the 30 minute setting to 0. In the past, there was no delay that I was aware of.

Yes! Mine are doing this too. It is driving me a little nuts. Turns off the light if I set the time to 0. Anytime at all and it does not work. I have a SmartThings motion sensor that does work correctly in Alexa so I am assuming it is something to do with Wyze.

Anyone ever get this working? I have the same issue now

This issue was reported some time ago as not working. @R.Good lead the charge to get it listed on April’s Fix it Friday. I believe it was also reported to Amazon.

There are multiple problems with the Alexa Routines integration with the Wyze Skill that have yet to be resolved. This is one. The others were reported during May Fix it Friday.

Problem with motion sensor 2 with Alexa routine

Anyone has issue with Alexa routine? I set my motion sensor if no motion detector in 2 mins turn the light off. It doesn’t work. If I play the routine it can turn off the light. The motion will turn the light on. But just not off if set a time on with no motion detect. I also use wyze rule to set up no motion detect to turn off wyze light strip it work. So anyone has an idea how to fix the problem?

Happy Friday! When using the V2 Motion Sensor, Wyze Sense Hub, and routines with Alexa. The IF clear for X time does execute a trigger. For example these routines never trigger [image][image]

Forum - When using Wyze Sense Motion Sensor, the Wyze Sense Hub, and routines with Alexa, “clear for X time” does not execute a trigger

We don’t currently have an update for this one. Here’s the info from our last update:

We’re wondering if this is part of the hub firmware issues and we’re working with multiple teams internally to look into it. But for now, here’s the information request from last week. This issue is really hard to track down without info from our community, so please help us out!

For this one, we would love to have a log and hub firmware version so we can look into it. Please recreate the issue and then send in a log that includes the date, time, and time zone of the trigger failure as well as a detailed description of your routine and which parts worked versus didn’t work. Please post the log number here when you have it so we can send it to the team!

Wyze Skill in Amazon Alexa App not working

For the last month, the Amazon Alexa Wyze Skill has stopped working for setting new and editing existing routines with my Wyze cameras. I have used the Wyze skill in the past and have a few routines set up through Alexa (i.e. turning on lights when motion is detected. ) Those continue to work, though I am unable to edit them. In any attempt to modify any existing routine, the message appears: “Please update your Cloud Cam Subscription to enable this routine”. However, all subscriptions are u…

Alexa Integration issue?

Until very recently, I could use my Wyze cameras to “filter” motion detection to specifically Person Detection only. This made it so I could have the lights in my office turn on ONLY when a person is detected, vs. our cats which don’t count for “pet immune” motion detectors because they jump into chairs and on top of tables etc. Now when I go into Alexa to set up any routine for Wyze, it basically just blanks out. I have to cancel the request or the app itself crashes. Granted, the routine I ha…
