Before you respond with “scan the QR code” I already know how to do that. I set one of these up and many up. I am trying to get it to connect to my parents house. The camera won’t get past the “ready to connect” doesn’t give me the opportunity to scan QR code. It feels like this camera is defective. I thought it was their internet at first but I brought that camera home and it did the same thing to me on my wifi that already has a couple wyze cams.

Before you can scan the QR code, you have to be connected to your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network. Try going into iOS Settings \> Cellular and turn it off. Then go to iOS Settings \> Privacy \> Local Network and make sure Wyze is toggled On.

Also, try printing the QR code out and scanning the paper, that seems to always work instantly for me. Remember the codes expire after a few mins, so make sure you print it right there
