Listen up, folks! Wyze used to be the bee's knees ๐, but now it's more like a garbage fire ๐ฅ. Loads of people are complaining about busted detection settings and abysmal notifications. One reviewer even suggested ditching Wyze entirely for alternatives like Tapo. Yikes! ๐ฌ
Hold onto your wallets! ๐ธ One seriously ticked-off user reported that Wyze charged their credit card for a yearly renewal without any notification. Now they're feeling less like a valued customer and more like a dupe in a shady scam. "Dirt bag company" was used; no kidding!
Technical support? More like technical horror show ๐ป. One person said they reached out for help and was asked to do it again despite having a ticket number. What a nightmare! Meanwhile, SD card issues just keep coming back like a bad sequel. Someone even yelled, "STOP DISABLING MY HARDWARE!" Classic horror movie vibes right there.
Awkward product designs are driving users nuts. Split-screen mode for monitoring multiple cameras? Nada. An option to disable the alarm feature? Non-existent. Users are dealing with unnecessary chaos because of these gaps. One reviewer shared a wild story of their kid activating the alarm and causing bed-time bedlam. ๐ฑ
Forget about catching those delivery drivers on camera anymore ๐ฆ. FedEx and UPS? Not happening. One user said the camera just straight-up missed the action. Whatโs a security system good for if it can't even spot packages?
Throw your phone across the room if it's incompatible with the app ๐. Some users found out their phones suddenly couldn't run the app, turning their cameras into expensive, plastic decorations.
For some, trying to use Wyze is like herding cats. Even long-term users with up to 9 cameras are frustrated to the max. Monthly fees? Just a rip-off according to complaints. Glitches, black screens, and constant updates that break more than they fixโyou name it, it's been griped about.
A glimmer of hope? Well, some reviews do say itโs easy to use and affordable. That is, if you can get past the mountain of issues.
Time to "Wyze" up and look for better options, perhaps? ๐
"Great"
"This app and company USED to be decent, but now it's completely broken and useless. Detection settings are busted and notifications are just not sent. Try Tapo or any other company. DO NOT BUY WYZE... it is trash!"
"PLEASE ALLOW US TO SEE CLOCK OR TIMESTAMP WHILE ZOOMED IN TO LIVE VIDEO OR PLAYBACK!Also optimize performance in LTE&5G, pretty please? I've tried so many camera apps that are free2play & this is by far the best that's out on the market. The upsales and/or promotions are limited, no ads & the usual upsale for other companies is the cloud,yes,however is vilified bc/SD card.those that have complaints about lagtime or ping,its UR wifi!Thanks wyze for being affordable and having a user friendly app!"
"They charged my credit card for yearly renewal without notification. No email, no text, no in app notification. I'm so close to rage quitting. This is because people cancel service if you tell them first and most people don't even notice anyway. I feel like I'm dealing with a dirt bag company now, not like I'm helping a growing company, that feeling is gone."
"Do wyze know what they are doing, I reached out to wyze 31/10/2024 now i have got this from yourselves asking me to reach out again. Get your act together please and sort my problem out. Ticket Number is 4124732 I urge people do not buy wyze, as you can see I have ticket number but they still want me to get in touch. Leave Wyze well Alone.. I have 3 months left on wyze cam plus then that is it, no more. STILL NOTHING FROM WYZE.Do NOT buy wyze."
"They disabled my LOCAL DATA ON MY SD CARD ILLEGALLY! RETURN MY DATA STORAGE NOW!!!! Update= sd worked again... until it didn't. STOP DISABLING MY HARDWARE!"
"way too much money, you can do this for free. I got his as a gift, I have used it for 2 hours, I am getting POE ESP32s because this is a ripoff. it's a scam folks. Response to wyze, I don't want to talk to your team, your team sucks. I'm not paying you 19.99 per cam per month.the reviews all say the same. The service is terrible, price to high and downright not worth it. Americans unite against the Chinese corporate spies and hogs."
"Have 3 cameras and one smart plug. They work pretty well, but it would be really beneficial to be able to monitor 2 cameras simultaneously with a split screen mode, rather than having to constantly toggle back and forth. Update: there NEEDS to be a way to actively disable the "alarm" feature in the settings. My 3 year old got ahold of my phone and managed to activate the alarm on my 1 year old's camera as we were putting 1 year old to bed. Chaos ensued."
"New update this thing is not picking up the delivery like FedEx, ups, ect so this is not working for me I will dump the camera"
"Awesome app"
"App worked fine till the last update, then we stopped getting notifications for motion and when someone rings the bell its normally delayed. Checked all the settin not sure what change they made but it made it a useless now. Gunna try un-installing and re-installing. But it looks like I am not the only one having this issue."
"Just what I needed for the price"
"My phone says it's incompatible with this App. Please explain why I can't use my phone to view my cameras?"
"Events & detection of ppl & objects & animals & packages hasn't been working properly for the last 457 days or so & it works when it wants & misses alot of events 1/26/25"
"Nothing but problems. Look elsewhere."
"This update sucks. Can no longer connect to my outdoor cameras. Wish they would leave the app alone instead of updating, ha ha, just to try to get more money."
"There is noise around the edges of the picture."
"Door bell sucks. I always have problems with it. I pay monthly for a door bell service that doesn't work. Most of the time it's just a black screen, no video."
"Enough is enough. I've been using the wyze app with my 9 wyze V3 cameras for 4 years. In that time, they have made improvements and made the app better. Even with that said, It's been a constant struggle just trying to get acceptable usage from this system. And now as of today, my android is no longer compatible with the app. This renders my cameras completely worthless. If you intend on paying monthly fees to use these cameras, then they're just junk. If you don't, then they're complete garbage"
