Hey everyone, I wanted to share my experience with the Wyze Cam V3 after encountering some frustrating issues with the ‘View Playback’ section. Despite having a PLUS subscription and a Micro SD card, I noticed that the cameras weren’t recording consistently. This problem started after the latest firmware update, which was both unexpected and concerning.
At first, I thought it might be a isolated issue, but over time, three out of my eight cameras experienced the same problem. I tried troubleshooting by changing the SD card, switching brands, and resetting the cameras multiple times. The firmware versions were 4.36.2.5 for the cameras and 2.23.21 for the Wyze app. I even checked my internet speed, which was a solid 400 Mbps, so that wasn’t the issue.
To my relief, restarting the cameras seemed to temporarily fix the problem, allowing the ‘View Playback’ option to appear and recordings to resume. However, this solution is far from ideal, as I have to manually restart several cameras multiple times a day. I’m curious if others are facing the same issue and if there’s a more permanent fix.
If you’ve encountered similar problems or have any tips or workarounds, I’d love to hear from you! Let’s hope Wyze addresses this in a future update.
