Wyze app 3.x - Additions and changes

My suggestions based on a lot of feedback I’ve read from people about this app version:

  • On the Favorites tab, allow us a setting to pick which cameras will auto-stream vs just have a thumbnail image showing.
  • Make it easier to turn cameras on/off without multiple taps.
  • Allow us to pick whether a single camera takes up multiple columns/rows on the favorites dashboard as a live stream, or whether that single camera takes up a smaller profile 1rowx1column presence like all the other devices (with an on/off button like the camera groups have). instead of a 3rowX2column presence
  • Should have allowed the the 3.0 app to capture the existing device order of the 2.5 app and convert that same organized order to the 3.0 app automatically so people don’t have to redo everything from scratch. In the Wyze server, the 2.5 order is apparently called the “Channel Order” since 3rd party apps like Tiny Cam are able to see the “Channel Order” from the 2.5 app and structure everything in that same order, so if a 3rd party app can see and use the channel order, it stands to reason that Wyze could’ve made everything default in that same order when it converted over to the 3.0 app and had a sorting option for that or started it in that order when it first moves over to the new version.
  • Add on/off buttons on the devices tab next to the favorites star
  • Allow us to set the devices tab as the default screen
  • Show device battery or sensor status or other primary status info on the devices &/or favorites tab at a glance
  • Address some of the reported functionality bugs of some devices seeming not to work right when some people upgrade to the 3.0 app (these don’t generally seem to be widespread or consistently affecting everything, but they are a priority and important to those who are affected)

I think the above cover most of the most common feedback I’ve been seeing. What did I miss?
