Wyze Finally Works With Google Assistant!

Sent the DM last night. Also offered to send a video of what is happening, but I would need an email address of a wyze rep to send it.

Works with Wyze app.

Works with Alexa on Show 1st gen, 2nd gen, Show 5, and echo Spot.

Doesn’t work with Google on my Nest Hub or Nest Hub Max.

Thanks for the additional testing. Except for a slight variance here or there, we’re pretty much seeing the same thing - after the initial connection, which can take 30+ seconds, the live stream is displayed successfully, but for less than a minute, then it freezes (with the red progress bar at the bottom continually trying to reconnect). As I mentioned above, this started misbehaving within the past week or so. p.s. all 6 of my v2 cams work just fine within the iPadOS app, etc. and I rarely ever have a disconnect while viewing the stream this way

Same here! My Hub says currently unavailable… It showed once months ago… after that never again!!!

It doesn’t work!!!

Done this a few days ago. I even offered to send a video of what is happening but I need an email to send it to.

If you send @UserCustomerGwen a private message, I’m sure she can give you an email to send it to.

Did that three days ago…no email in the “thanks” reply I received. I figured if they really wanted to see what was happening a video would surly help.

She may have what she needs, but if you’d like to share a video, I’m sure she’ll give you an email to send it to if you ask.

Most email clients have a size limit. Why can’t the video just be uploaded to cloud storage like Google Drive and then DM the link to whomever at Wyze needs it?

I email videos all the time. It’s 20 seconds of video…

Yeah the works with google assistant was a big selling point for me. I too have the horrible lag for it to display on a hub. Have the Nest Hub Max, Nest Hub and Lenovo 10". All lag. Also the constant need to unlink and readd them back makes this much more a PITA. I don’t see investing any more until this is fixed. I’ve been patient but it has been months.

Did you submit your info as the post above mentioned, this will help them figure out what is going on and if it on the WYZE end or Google end

I will when I have time.
Did you not read Frederik’s post saying this is on the back burner? It’s broken. Submitting my info isn’t going to change it for the foreseeable future.

His August 27th post says 2020.

2020 seems like the foreseeable future to me.

I did not see that one, but I did see the one from @UserCustomerGwen on November 18 that was asking for info to see if they could figure things out.

You stripped away the context given that post was back in August.

You know, I have been a big fan of Wyze. So does that make them immune to criticism?

It’s code! A reboot or something isn’t going to surmount code that isn’t there. Just scroll up and read it for yourself.

I saw that he posted it in August. They’re not immune to criticism, no. I just thought that saying it won’t change for the foreseeable future sounded like giving up hope or something, or that “early 2020,” as his post said, was an unreasonable amount of time to wait.

Got it. But it was few months before saying it was coming. It adds up. That’s what makes it a little “unreasonable”.
