Do you just pay yourself for self-monitoring?

Like you said
I’m Not sure it really means what people might think it does
All joking aside, if you could have something like “TEST” mode without the fees, I’d be fine with most of it. There are features missing, whether self-monitored or using NoonLight, but the basics are there in test mode.

And without the keypad you might not want , if they do this then maybe I can take it out of test mode
I did the Home Monitoring Bundle just to access the water alarms. I had previously bought them thinking they worked with the regular home security bundle. I was hoping to configure the Home Monitoring Bundle and eliminate the monitoring company and simple get notifications. Any chance of that? I noticed in test mode it doesn’t push any notifications my way.
Self-monitoring is a must and I think wyze confirmed this was being worked on already btw.

Sure, but they didn’t confirm if it was a low priority or high priority. I mean, they have a lot of new products that they have to support.

All I want is temperature and humidity sensors and a leak sensor. I am NOT willing to pay $5/month or $60/year just so I can see how humid my basement is. I want a one-time purchase of the sensors and that’s it.
I’ve bought 7 Wyze Cams of various types over the last 4+ years along with a floor vacuum robot and a handheld vacuum. I have been happy with everything…except I am NOT willing to buy subscriptions. That’s why I liked the cameras. I can save to SD cards and not pay monthly fees for cloud storage. By missing the mark on this and requiring me to subscribe, I’m not going to be purchasing ANY of this. I’m looking at alternatives right now such as Ecobee, Aqara, and Eve.

Self monitoring is definitely a must-have! But doesnt look like its falling in their priority list?

Please add feature to allow us to switch off professional home monitoring and emergency services
Thanks for making great products and great customer service.
Are there plans to allow us to turn off the notification of professional home monitoring and emergency services? I’m only interested in a system that, without a subscription, notifies me only by automated text or automated call. I don’t want a professional service to call me, and I don’t trust any alarm system to be free from false alarms, which ties up police resources, requires the cost of alarm permits, and incurs fines in my area for excessive false alarm responses, etc. Another issue is that I am not reachable at all times, so the thought of every missed call or notification resulting in a police response is a definite deal-breaker for me. With a simple toggle switch, I want to turn off all professional and emergency response in my routine day to day life and simply receive continued, persistent, automated alerts until I acknowledge them. Then maybe when I leave town, I can turn on professional monitoring and emergency response if needed. If this were an option, I’d buy a complete system immediately as I love your products. Yes I know test mode is similar to what I’m requesting, but I’m reading in the forums that test mode also has other effects. If this mode were available, it could potentially convince me that it is not prone to false alarms, at which point I would probably opt-in to the professional monitoring features at that time.

Maybe the idea is to go off-roading now. No map needed!
In which case, the idea to go off-monitoring and self-montitor needs to get a higher priority.

Hi @WyzeRyan. I love your products as I have the Wyze V3 here in Ireland but I’m looking for a home alarm system too. I understand that most of the functions won’t work here in Ireland beside putting the device in test mode. This is really disappointing because I want to have one app which I control everything such as the Wyze app as I already have the Wyze V3 working here perfectly.
I really hope there is an update soon about a self monitoring option for your security system that works in Europe too.
There is a huge market for affordable security devices here in Ireland recently with more robberies etc so might be worth your time finally expanding.
Thanks again and I hope to hear an update soon regards your home security systems otherwise I will switch to Ring as they offer what I’m looking for which is unmonitored alarm systems and full compatibility in Ireland.
Home monitoring without Noonlight and real shock sensors
Hi,
Noonlight is not supported in all countries. I would like to have all home security options without the need of Noonlight. Support for a SIM card would make it possible to choose your own security company to check on your property when abroad.
Glass break sensors are nice but it would be better to have shock sensors. I rather get a notification when burglars are attempting to open doors or security windows instead of getting the alert after they succeeded in doing this.
[Mod Note]: Your request was merged to this topic for consistency in grouping similar requests. You may also wish to comment on and/or vote for “Please add vibration sensors to your product list” and “Glass Break detection sensor”. Remember to scroll up to the top and click the VOTE button.
I desperately needs this feature!!! I hope self-monitoring mode can send me iOS critical alert, and give me an option to contact Noonlight. It’s been a year since the feature was first requested. Could any Wyze representative please give us a status update??

EH!!! DON’T GET ME STARTED! Last week, the police visited me for the 3rd time since HMS. I know I disabled the alarm before opening the door, but, I musta inadvertently re-alarmed it when I put the phone in my pocket.
And you didn’t get the App Notification? The Text from Noonlight? the call from Noonlight asking for your safe word?
