Hey everyone, I wanted to share my experience with setting up Wyze cameras to record only to the local SD card. I recently purchased several Wyze cams and noticed that even though I had an SD card installed, the camera was still trying to upload footage to the cloud. This was causing some slowdowns on our internet connection, especially with multiple cameras running.
After some research and trial and error, I found the right settings to ensure continuous local recording without any cloud uploads. Here’s what worked for me:
- Go to the Wyze app settings
- Navigate to the camera settings
- Under the storage section, make sure ‘Local Storage’ is enabled
- Disable ‘Cloud Backup’
- Set the SD card as the primary storage
This setup has been working perfectly for the past week. The SD cards are being used efficiently, and there’s no more cloud interference. I’d love to hear if anyone else has tips or alternative methods for managing local storage on Wyze cameras!
- Cheers,
[Your Name]
