I’ve been using my WYZE cameras for a while now, and I must say, they’ve been a fantastic addition to my smart home setup. The motion alerts during weekdays are super helpful, especially when I’m at work. The cameras automatically turn off in the evening, which is perfect because I don’t want to be bombarded with alerts when I’m home in the evenings.
However, weekends are a different story. I’m usually home all day, and the motion alerts become overwhelming as I move around the house. It’s like having a personal assistant who’s constantly notifying me about every little movement—adorable, but also a bit annoying!
I did some research and found a clever workaround. Instead of manually turning off the alerts every weekend, I set up a Routine using my smart speaker. Now, on Saturdays and Sundays at 7 AM, the routine automatically disables the motion alerts. Then, at 7 PM, it turns them back on. This way, I enjoy a peaceful weekend without constant notifications, and I don’t have to lift a finger to manage the settings.
If you’re facing a similar issue, I highly recommend exploring your device’s automation features. It’s all about finding that perfect balance between convenience and peace of mind. Happy smart home hacking! ![]()
