In the Reddit AMA event on 10/25/24, regarding sounds for this chime, Wyze said:
Yes, it could potentially become possible to play customized sounds however, we do not have a current plan to implement that for now.
[Text to Speech] is a great idea, and we evaluated it seriously. However, no plan for now. Thanks.
Theoretically, it would be able to work with all Wyze WiFi devices in the future, but that feature is not available at this time. Thanks
Yes, the Wifi chime will be used with HMS, as soon as we have enough inventory.
We can consider adding more [sounds to the WiFi Chime] if there is enough interest in that.
This Wishlist is to do exactly that: see how much interest there is in adding new sound options. Please vote above on the vote button as well as voting in the polls below.

How Wyze can get the above sounds at no cost
Note that many of the above requests can be found free of licensing or copyright requirements at places such as soundbible.com or Freesound.org or a creative commons search across various platforms like Flickr, SoundCloud, and Youtube for any content with Creative Commons licenses that allow commercial use (e.g, CC BY). There are also Royalty-Free Sound Libraries such as Pixabay, ZapSplat, Uppbeat. Or Wyze could create their own In-House. But this should be VERY FEASIBLE to add more sounds, assuming the chime has sufficient storage available.
Sorry if I left out anything others may think is obvious or important. If you have other suggestions not included in the first polls, please enter a comment below with the other options and we can add them to a list of other suggestions and potentially add them into another poll as well (the initial polls can’t be edited but we can add more later if there is sufficient interest in other options too).
