Wyze Cam V2 event playback not working

Yeah, I’d consult a recent Forum topic and a Help Center article.

I think your best bet is to reproduce the error message and then immediately submit a log after that. When you submit, the app will give you a Log ID and prompt you to follow up with Support, and Wyze’s system will e-mail you that same information. At that point, I’d visit the Help Center site and create a ticket, including the Log ID in the ticket. After that happens, their system will sent you another e-mail message saying that the ticket has been created and giving you the Wyze Ticket #, and then you can use that space (in your e-mail client) to reply with more detail about the problem.

You can expand this for the ticket creation steps if you need them.

This is how I submit tickets:

  1. Visit the Help Center: https://go.wyze.com/help[1]
  2. Click into the “AI-powered search” box in the middle of the page and enter create ticket.
  3. Click Yes, that is correct.
  4. :point_up: Repeat Step #3. (:face_with_symbols_over_mouth: UGH! :roll_eyes:)
  5. Click No, I do not like chatbots.
  6. Click This is about a product.*
  7. Click Other.*
  8. Click Create Ticket
  9. Enter your contact details and a brief issue description (include a Log ID if you have one) and click Submit.

     * Make your own appropriate/relevant choices here.[2]

It doesn’t really matter how brief the description is. Wyze’s system will generate an e-mail message to you automatically with a Wyze Ticket number, and you can just reply to that message from your e-mail client and add as much detail as you want.

They don’t give you a lot of space to describe the problem when submitting a log or creating a ticket, which is unfortunate (but I also don’t like typing a lot on a mobile device screen). They used to have a full-page ticket submission form in the Help Center, but that went away sometime this past summer. :disappointed:

Since I don’t own any Wyze Cams with the “old” UI, let’s see if any of the @Mavens who’ve been at this longer than I have can provide some input on your Cam v2.


  1. This might be a good one to bookmark. ↩︎

  2. I’m demonstrating my typical path. The number of steps will likely be the same and result in the identical endpoint regardless of the choices you make. ↩︎
