Wyze DashCam

Ive been saying this is a must for years! Wyze please make this happen!

I’m going to try to rig a version 4 camera up in my car. I may 3d print shade hoods to prevent glare from the sun and window.

I know you have a mount but i don’t think the flat mount will work well on my windshield.

This has been a request for the past 6 years. I think “later” has arrived.

Careful, it doesn’t just say later, it also says “maybe”… So If we tell them later is now and to decide now they could just decide to update it to “probably not” and avoid considering it in the future. :scream:

After receiving my V4 cameras, I replaced the V3 Pro that was being used a forward facing dashcam with one of the V4 cameras. It is working just fine as a dashcam. In the process I changed out my driver cam which had been a V2 for years with a V3. the V3 Pro will become a rear facing camera when I have time to get power to it.

Camera > vacuum > bathroom scale > DASH CAM PLEASE!
Or at least sell a mounting accessory for the V4 cam.

Let’s do this!

Nothing special required. Use the double sided tape that comes with the camera to mount the round metal disk to the windshield. Attach the camera (whatever type you want to use) with the magnetic mount. Done that for years.

Podria crear una camara para el vehiculo.

Que tenga la opcion de cotrolar desde el celular, donde la camara se conecte a la red de la casa, cuando esta este en rango o en casa.

Que monitore 24/7 el vehiculo.

Que tenga dos camaras, una para monitoriar la parte de entrente y otra en el mismo dispositivo que monitore por dentro y atras del vehiculo.

Que sea discreta y de ser posible que no utilice cables y en su lugar sea recargable y desmontable facilmente.

Mod edit: moved to applicable Wishlist and Google translation:

I could create a camera for the vehicle.

You have the option to control from your cell phone, where the camera connects to the home network, when it is in range or at home.

Monitor the vehicle 24/7.

It has two cameras, one to monitor the front part and another on the same device that monitors the inside and rear of the vehicle.

Make it discreet and, if possible, not use cables and instead be rechargeable and easily removable.

We need a Wyze Dash Cam

Im currently looking for an affordable dash cam. I would like one that records license plate numbers clearly. Screen model and possibly a no screen model (would need to include wifi and app), front only or front and rear in one, definitely a market for dual models, an extreme sd card . parking alert included or on a second tier model.
Not much on market worth a crap under $180. Id definitely go with wyze on any camera. Please consider. Thank you!

Automobile Cameras, will Wyze ever create one. I NEED one desperately.

I’ve had Wyze cameras in my pickup for years. V2, V3, V3 Pro, and V4 at various times. Work quite well.

I was wondering how that would work. I tried it today with a Battery Cam Pro set to record continuously to the sd card. It started recording nicely until I pulled out of the garage at which point it lost connection to the internet and stopped recording. May I ask what setting you used to get your V3 to record when away from the internet connection ? Did you use your phone as a wifi hot spot and connect the camera to that ?

The v3 only requires an internet connection when it first powers up. After that, it continues to record to the sd card as long as it power, regardless of internet connection. I’ve been using a v3 as a dash cam for years. When i leave for work in the morning, i plug the cam in, wait for it to boot up, then drive away.

As tekgod3 said, the V2, V3, V4, V3Pro only require an Internet connection at powerup. I have my cameras powered continuously.
Note there is a known bug currently with the V3Pro where it goes to a screwy file structure 30 minutes after losing Internet.

Doesn’t matter why we want them. If someone doesn’t want one, don’t get on. I’ve had a camera Mounted in my car for more years than i can remember. I wan’t a four or six camera set up…. That will also work for camping scenarios. Thank you for posting your setup, it is much appreciated.

Car Dashcam With Sim

I just want to suggest a car camera. As this would solidly the entire home security for me. My car security is the up most importance. If I could see if anyone is in my car when they shouldn’t be, that would save me from a lot of worries. I recently bought a Chinese sim capable dash dual cam for 80 bucks. I’d spend double that for a Wyze dash cam, especially one where I can see if anyone broke into my vehicle. I already have the router, the hub, sensors, multiple cameras, the monthly subs and all. This would be the last piece. I can only hope…

This would need to definitely have a SD card to capture clear video camera quality. The camera bitrate wouldn’t be supported from a cloud stand point.
In order for this to work, the camera would need an actual button on the camera you could push that would prioritize saving the 30 seconds prior and 30 seconds after pushing the button (or some other length of time). That clip could then be sent to the cloud for viewing. Streaming from a Wyze dashcam wouldn’t seem feasible, but dashcam built the right way could work.
