WYZE rotate image NOT leaving with next app update?!?

I can shed some light on this one.

You may have noticed some posts about Wyze Cam Outdoor not recording Events well. There was a bug we fixed with that but there’s a larger issue with the motion detection being tied to the hardware instead of being a pixel comparison algorithm like with Wyze Cam v2 and Pan. When you have the camera upside down, the field in which you’ll best be able to detect motion is different than if you had it right side up using the magnet and metal plate at the top of the camera.

We were planning to remove image rotation feature in an effort to improve the detection experience for folks. I’ll give this feedback to the team so that they take it into consideration.

Edit to add: This is only planned for Wyze Cam Outdoor and not Wyze Cam or Wyze Cam Pan. Are you seeing that message in their settings as well?
