Multiple people keep suggesting that it’s the fault of AWS. AWS themselves report no known issues at this time. DownDetector is reporting some user-reported issues, but no more than normal, and far less than 12 hours ago (50 reports? That’s not an outage.)
My flood lights are flashing on and off. And one is connected to a Wyze smart switch so I can’t even turn it off! This is squarely in the hands of Wyze to prevent and has nothing to do with AWS.
All cams offline. App frozen. Forced to log in again. Then all cameras were gone, server connection issue. Downdetector shows 700 reports. AWS reports are only 24. Need my cams back!
Same here. App takes forever to open. Says No cameras. It did log an event from one but logged it from an unknown device. Noticed some of my cameras are cycling too.
Again, no reports from AWS suggesting that they’re experiencing any issues. Maybe you e seen something I haven’t, I could be wrong there. My point is I can still connect to the camera feed via Google Home app, but only for one of the two camera models I have. This shows that connectivity could be maintained, even if an AWS outage did occur. Also, my floodlights should failsafe - they should be on, not flashing erratically. These are examples of lazy programming. One should always consider what could happen. So even if this is currently caused by an AWS outage, Wyze had the capability to build fail-safes so that some functionality will be maintained. Instead, they are too busy engineering the next smart spoon or whatever.
Same unacceptable I don’t care if it is AWS or who it is I am going to switch to a non internet solution to serve the cameras on my own network. Bye Wyze
Ok good, im not the only one. Mine wont connext either saying its me internet connection but im online for work so not my internet and all fsst blue blinking lights.
For everyone wanting to switch to a non-internet connected camera system. You should know that any remote viewing functionality they have is still internet dependent. So you can view while your in your house but when outside that network your depending on some external service to connect you back to the home.
I would be okay not being able to view my cameras remotely, as long as they kept working! I want my cameras recording and functioning as they are set to, even if I can’t view them for the moment. Clearly that’s not the case right now. If I was away from my house I’d be worried about security. I happen to be home still but am about to leave for the day.
