Just as a quick tip NEVER put a sticker / sign of the company that you're protected with, It allows the thieves to know what they're up against even before they get on your property.
Believe it or not, in tennessee (where I live), by law, if you have a monitored security/alarm system, you HAVE to have a window decal, or a yard sign for whatever reason.
I preordered the kit and added some extra sensors. So far I am very happy with it. One time I didn't put in my code fast enough and immediately got a text and a call from Noonlight to see if everything was ok (she even named the sensor that triggered it!). I'm also impressed that the motion sensor actually works the way it's supposed to: it never detects my dog or cats, only people. My only complaints so far: 1) Please upgrade the siren, it is NOT nearly loud enough even on the highest setting. 2) Please add a cellular backup option in case wifi is lost. 3) Please add different settings for each sensor. Example: On Away mode, I'd like to have 30 seconds to disarm if my front door is opened, but have it immediately trigger the alarm if a window is opened. Currently there is only one time setting that covers every sensor. All in all, I am very happy with it and want to thank Wyze for continuing to make such great affordable home security. I own several of your cameras and continue to recommend them to everyone.
I just installed the system, easy and works great! I have a couple comments: I don't think when you select "Home" mode that that there should be any sort of alarm as if I turn this on when I am going to bed, I don't want to hear that or wake others up. Secondly with the magnet part of the the entry sensors on the doors, the adhesive really doesn't work well because of the humidity. A couple of them hung down and almost set of the alarm, you should have the option of screwing them to the surface. I love your products and have many of them! Thanks Dave!!
I was looking for an outdoor camera to keep an eye on my dogs in the yard when I'm not home. czcams.com/users/postUgkxOXxsTZ3ptV_Pk0fFl8bNZvVqeoqBQFwe Tried a different one that was absolutely terrible, so I got these instead. They work perfectly! With 3 of these cameras I can see every corner of the yard, and they were very easy to set up. The best part is I only get the footage I want to see, not hours of videos of the bird feeder swaying in the breeze.
It would be awesome if the alarm could trigger a wyze power outlet, so that an exterior 120 volts or 12v power supplied super loud sirens could sound off.
I have quite a few of the Wyze products and would like to make a suggestion. If Wyze could integrate their products with apple HomeKit and/or IFTTT, or Apple Shortcuts that would add so much more functionality, options for automation and control.
My only regret is getting the V2 cameras first. I now own 6 V2’s and 3 V3’s. I replaced my problem areas with V3’s. Poorly lit areas the V2 will struggle with a short range ir ability. V3’s are great all around.
If I may make a suggestion, can we have an open Door Chime option? I have a back door that leads to a pool and would like the sensor trip to activate a chime either on the hub or on my Wyze Chime that came with the doorbell. Let me know if there is a way this can be achieved. Thanks
@@dantonel The great news is that Wyze will allow anyone to be a Beta Tester! Follow the instructions here: wyze.com/become-a-beta-tester (FYI I don't work for Wyze at all, I am just a a customer/beta tester myself) Right now on the beta version they have added 1 tone for sensors to beep on the hub when opened. I am hoping they'll soon add more tones so we can set different sensors to have different beeps. :) Also, if you have an Alexa speaker, you can set up Alexa to beep with different sounds for each sensor even without doing betatesting for Wyze. That's how I have been doing it before Wyze just added this to Beta.
Interesting for this is the problem we have with the security system we currently have. My elder parent complains about the sensor letting us know a door is open, so setting the alarm to keep her from wandering off has been a problem.
Are you guys working on having this still work when off of Wi-Fi and or electricity for any period of time? If so, when do you expect to be able to have this feature? With diesters happening all the time and people having to evacuate their homes, it would be nice to still be able to monitor things and be sure all is well.
@@JimValdes Hi Jim. He said it runs on battery backup so if power were to go out, it would still work. The sensors would still trigger the siren. The siren will still go off and you’d be able to be alerted of an emergency. It however will not call the home monitoring center if the alarm goes off and the power is out. It needs Internet connection to be able to do that.
Get a UPS Uninteruptable Power Supply and plug in your modem, router and wyze hub so your internet connection will still work and the police can still be dispatched in the event of a power loss.
Bought the system after i saw this video, worked a few months then I did a firmware update on the hub and the monitoring tab in the app only shows a blank white screen. So i’m out $100 and there have been no updates to fix this! Thanks Wyze, really got me good. Dave can you just ask them to fix the app or firmware or both???
I hate having to have separate cam plus accounts for each camera. Please tell me there will be one price for multiple cameras. It's just too much trouble & too expensive. Others have been doing this for a while. I like Wyze & will wait it out a little longer but I really want just one price, one subscription for all my cameras. And there should be a discount for multiple cameras. I have 10 & shouldn't have to pay full price for each one. A small discount would be appreciated. And a nice thank you for being a loyal customer.
Get an option for not using an alarm center when outside the US and add a SIM option to text you in case of an alarm. Add shock sensors and the product is done.
Hi Dave, like you and your daughters music!! why does the hub have a speaker if we cannot have it provide us with motion & leak sensor updates? when I have water leak under sink or at hot water heater I would really appreciate an audible alarm or announcement on hub speaker. Thanks.
I am a long time Wyze customer. Preordered this home security system to replace the failed iSmartAlarm company’s system. I installed it but could not put it into use due to the audible countdown. Drove our two Maltese pups crazy! Software needs to include the ability to switch this feature off. Can’t use system until that update is made. Thanks.
Notice, he did say the system needs an internet connection to call the alarm center. Other systems have cellular backup and work with no wifi, but they do cost more for monthly monitoring.
Okay but if the alarm is going off and notifies you and for some reason the power is out you should be able to call law enforcement on your cell phone, or get the notification while out of the house and call them and tell them your house is being broken into and they will send the proper people to your house. Either way the likely hood of your internet being down at the same time as someone breaking into your house probably isn’t high but the response either way isn’t immediate.
Wait there’s only one person to contact in case of an alert set off? I’m confused because he set off the alarm and when someone contacted him it was her and that’s the same name as the one shown on their website and you can’t pick who to contact
You show a V3 and the Wyze Doorbell cam at the front door. I assume this would work with just the Wyze Doorbell, and not need the V3 Cam with the usb cable hanging down like that, at that location?
I’m a fan of your products. However will this system have an option for cellular? Cutting a home’s internet connection outside of the home takes about 5 seconds. If not, and someone cuts your internet just before “entering”, hopefully you will be able to call 911 yourself.
I just wish we could buy this system and everything Wyze in AUSTRALIA…..EVERYTHING is so expensive! Please, please, start shipping here it would be so competitive and amazing! I really want a system 😪😪😪😪😪
Quick question. Can this monitoring be share like other Wyze products that I have shared with my Wife. I would like to have her have the same options as I do. When we are not together.
I just ordered a bunch of cameras and the home monitoring equipment and I thought this would go smoothly HOWEVER choosing the right subscription is CONFUSING as I thought I needed to pay for Cam Plus Pro and Home Monitoring to get the most out of my system. Now I'm stuck in a situation where the app thinks I have Cam Plus Pro instead of Home Monitoring and my Wyze Sense Keypad doesn't work and the app is the only way to arm and disarm which means I have equipment that I paid for that doesn't work!
I'm so sorry to hear about the trouble that you're having with your system. Let's get you in touch with our Support Team - they can create an escalation that will clear out your Cam Plus Pro service and make the monitoring tab work again. You can reach them here: go.wyze.com/3uL2oQt
What about a home mesh system? Create small Access points, such as a wall plug that emits WiFi. Get way better compatibility with Amazon and Google. Shore up the problem of dropped connections with your v2 cameras
OK! You talked me into it... I have had an old hardwired system that so old and moldy that only works halfway anymore. Windows were replaced a few years ago so all of my wired window switches are no longer functional. For using Wyze home monitoring, do I have to have a wireless door/window sense device or can I used the existing hardwire switches that are still installed (and good) with my doors? I also have hardwired motions. Just wondering if I need to replace everything or can use some of the existing hardware. Thanks Dave for sharing this!!
PLEASE HELP! I bought the one year Camplus services in my first camera, and now that I bought a second camera I want to buy the same services for it, but its telling me that I already bought the service for one camera and it wants to charge me double when I add the new one. Please help.
I like Wyze but why do their cameras have a 5 minute cooldown without CAM PLUS subscription? Why cant they just notify the user and point to local storage time stamp so that it doesn't cost them cloud storage for that clip on a free plan?
I love Wyze but do not love that wire and plug in front door. Easy for thief to just unplug. Can it be hardwired or possible wireless battery/solar panel ?
I am very interested in the Wyze products, in fact I use three of them, an indoor camera, a few smart single pole switches and a video doorbell. I am monitoring the outdoor cameras from Wyze for a few months now, they need power and it is not easy to bring the outlet at the location these cameras have to be installed. In fact there is one thing in your video I am not comfortable with, this is the wiring for the outdoor camera at the main entrance of your house, that wire can be unplugged or damaged in any second by any one, it is accessible, a system like this should not have exposed wires on the outside. The other thing what I am looking for and can not find as a Wyze product is the glass break sensor, which is very important these days. Any work in this respect? The third thing regarding the outdoor cameras is the design of the camera itself, very easy to be damaged by anyone, any thoughts to make a more robust design. And the last thing, I am using about six smart single pole switches, and at least one turns on without any input from me or from a schedule, in fact I did not setup schedules for any of them, so the software needs a bit of "love" to be more robust. I like to price for monitoring, in fact is a great price, thank you for keeping it low. Also the indoor cameras work perfect, I like the resolution and clarity of the image. All in one is a great start for Wyze, however more work is necessary.

Hi Wzye, not everyone wants or needs the system to connect to a home monitor. They would just want it to alarm in there home. And get a text or app notification that there door or window is open. Will this system work without paying for home monitoring????? Added in covin-19 there are still 10 million people out of work!
great for price however the alarm is not loud at all. need the ability to trigger wyze cam v3 alarm with Home Monitoring , why they havent done this yet is puzzling
If the alarm is not set do the sensor provide any sound feedback if a door is opened, like a ding or something? Or does the system have to be alarmed for any sensor to make a sound with that loud siren that goes off?
Wyze Home Monitoring doesn’t currently work for so many people. It’s a “know issue” according to Wyze if you call them. Funny how they quickly report when AWS impacts their services but NOT when their own software doesn’t work. Wyze does provide a partial credit for equipment that doesn’t work. If you ordered equipment across several orders they seem to only be willing to credit the first order. This makes no sense, at least to me. I loved Wyze. But if you go into home security you need to have a reliable product. When you mess up, you need to communicate. If you can’t fix it, you need to make it right. Three strikes and you’re out [of this house].
I’ve been having an issue where I am not able to access my monitoring settings within the app. Can’t arm or disarm the alarm which pretty much makes the system useless. Customer service says they can suspend my account until they resolve the issue (no time frame on that) but home monitoring is a vital service for those who use it so I don’t really consider that a solution. How about selling something that actually works instead of scamming customers. And as you mentioned, according to customer support this is a know issue impacting several customers. Very annoyed.
What type of encryption is used for the cameras to protect owners from live or recorded feeds being monitored by unwanted I dividuals and or the company itself?

What is the purpose of battery backup if it doesn't have cellular backup for data? If there is no power, there won't be any internet from the router...
After I got everything installed in our home, we found that the keypad wasn't arming/disarming our system. We could only do that with the app. Is there a way to re-pair the keypad to the hub?
Hi Mary! You can learn about paring your keypad from the setup guide here: support.wyze.com/hc/en-us/articles/360059026571-Wyze-Home-Monitoring-Setup-Guide#h_01F2QVZ3DK9TBYAG6K10EAM8A9 The keypad setup section should be on the third step!
Your New Wyze sense Hub firmware just ruined my hub and if you look online thousands of other people as well. The home monitoring system is very important and nothing to be taken likely because it protects our home and the valuables in it why people bought it. Also this hub has a yearly subscription so every day that is down you are wasting our money. I have spent thousands on your merchandise and was happy to. But the problem is that this hub is a very essential key to our ecosystem and now it is ruined and you guys are just laying on this your tech support team should be on this 24/7 until resolved.
I've got the monitoring system and two cameras in a cabin that we have in the woods. The system is worthless. It is a waste of money. I came to the cabin yesterday, and the outside camera sent the notification. I opened the front door and thus the door sensor was opened and what happened? Nothing!! The system was armed "away" and the alarm did not trigger not I received a call from the monitoring system. I left it armed just to see what happened and stayed like nobody was in the house. I've got the notifications but the alarm was never triggered nor emergency calls was received. I am canceling the service. Another issue: there is no costumer service. Just an automated robot to send complaints to.

How do you offer a security System with no siren alarm? Failure on Wyze Part. You need to offer a siren that can be mounted outside to scare people off.
@@stephaniebell3966 with the wyze cam outdoor there is travel mode you can only record for a certain amount of time and the wyze cam outdoor unlike their corded v3 is that it does only motion records not contusions A dash cam should be something that you mount on the windshield where it will continually record when the car is on simply by it receiving power because the car would need to be on to supply power of corse. So basally to record when the car is on continuously record and when the car is off since the wyze cam built in battery to only record diction
So far I've owned a wyze kit for 10 hours. It sucks. Can not get a single device to connect. Web support is horrible gave up after 3hr of trying to set up.
Just as a quick tip NEVER put a sticker / sign of the company that you're protected with, It allows the thieves to know what they're up against even before they get on your property.
Or just put the wrong one...make things interesting ;)
Exactly . If they see a Wyze sticker or sign they can look up the vulnerabilities . Which is turning off the wifi
Believe it or not, in tennessee (where I live), by law, if you have a monitored security/alarm system, you HAVE to have a window decal, or a yard sign for whatever reason.

I just got mine and I love it! I hope y’all make the WiFi speakers I put on the wish list that way it can sync up with the siren.
Or atleast make it to where you can make the siren on the v3 cam activate with the siren.
I have quite a few of the Wyze products and would like to make a suggestion. If Wyze could integrate their products with apple HomeKit and/or IFTTT, or Apple Shortcuts that would add so much more functionality, options for automation and control.
You should offer a SIM card slot in the hub for cellular backup.

Dude they are only $40 each, don't be cheap and buy the two V3's that you're missing.

I am very interested in the Wyze products, in fact I use three of them, an indoor camera, a few smart single pole switches and a video doorbell. I am monitoring the outdoor cameras from Wyze for a few months now, they need power and it is not easy to bring the outlet at the location these cameras have to be installed. In fact there is one thing in your video I am not comfortable with, this is the wiring for the outdoor camera at the main entrance of your house, that wire can be unplugged or damaged in any second by any one, it is accessible, a system like this should not have exposed wires on the outside. The other thing what I am looking for and can not find as a Wyze product is the glass break sensor, which is very important these days. Any work in this respect? The third thing regarding the outdoor cameras is the design of the camera itself, very easy to be damaged by anyone, any thoughts to make a more robust design. And the last thing, I am using about six smart single pole switches, and at least one turns on without any input from me or from a schedule, in fact I did not setup schedules for any of them, so the software needs a bit of "love" to be more robust. I like to price for monitoring, in fact is a great price, thank you for keeping it low. Also the indoor cameras work perfect, I like the resolution and clarity of the image. All in one is a great start for Wyze, however more work is necessary.

Hi Wzye, not everyone wants or needs the system to connect to a home monitor. They would just want it to alarm in there home. And get a text or app notification that there door or window is open. Will this system work without paying for home monitoring????? Added in covin-19 there are still 10 million people out of work!
So Noonlight must cancel it for you? What if they forget? is that alarm going to blast until they turn it off?
No, you can cancel it yourself in the app with a password.
Is There’s App I Can Download This On My Smart Tv?? I’ve The Wyze Cam But How How I Connect It To A Bigger Screen Beside My IPhone…
great for price however the alarm is not loud at all. need the ability to trigger wyze cam v3 alarm with Home Monitoring , why they havent done this yet is puzzling
How can I buy the package and have someone come over to install all this?
If the alarm is not set do the sensor provide any sound feedback if a door is opened, like a ding or something? Or does the system have to be alarmed for any sensor to make a sound with that loud siren that goes off?
Wyze Home Monitoring doesn’t currently work for so many people. It’s a “know issue” according to Wyze if you call them. Funny how they quickly report when AWS impacts their services but NOT when their own software doesn’t work.
Wyze does provide a partial credit for equipment that doesn’t work. If you ordered equipment across several orders they seem to only be willing to credit the first order. This makes no sense, at least to me. I loved Wyze. But if you go into home security you need to have a reliable product. When you mess up, you need to communicate. If you can’t fix it, you need to make it right. Three strikes and you’re out [of this house].
I’ve been having an issue where I am not able to access my monitoring settings within the app. Can’t arm or disarm the alarm which pretty much makes the system useless. Customer service says they can suspend my account until they resolve the issue (no time frame on that) but home monitoring is a vital service for those who use it so I don’t really consider that a solution. How about selling something that actually works instead of scamming customers. And as you mentioned, according to customer support this is a know issue impacting several customers. Very annoyed.
Nice Video, very interesting...
Waiting for that 2k Camera
Will the hub call out if it is connected to a designated battery back up hotspot during a power outage?
Very interesting - are you considering a Glass Breakage sensor?
Thanks, Newell
I got the starter kit...the sensors i got worked great for a month....then when batteries died theyve never worked again
What type of encryption is used for the cameras to protect owners from live or recorded feeds being monitored by unwanted I dividuals and or the company itself?
No glass break sensors?
Does Wyze have any plans to add a secondary way to communicate such as cellular to the monitoring service if internet is out ?
Hi there! Thanks for reaching out. While we don’t offer that feature at this time, it’s been a popular request! Our product team is always looking for ways to improve our current products and to know what our fans would like to see next.

Nice short informative video Dave. What's with the window blind by the front door?
hah broken! Gotta get that fixed :)
@@TheCrosbys , Good to know your 'normal'.
What is the purpose of battery backup if it doesn't have cellular backup for data? If there is no power, there won't be any internet from the router...
What happens if you lose your telephone and internet connection? Doesn’t this stop the Wyze Home Monitoring system from recording from any camera?
When I did my test mode it doesn’t work at all
hi WYZE!!! when will you have it in Canada?
After I got everything installed in our home, we found that the keypad wasn't arming/disarming our system. We could only do that with the app. Is there a way to re-pair the keypad to the hub?
Hi Mary! You can learn about paring your keypad from the setup guide here: support.wyze.com/hc/en-us/articles/360059026571-Wyze-Home-Monitoring-Setup-Guide#h_01F2QVZ3DK9TBYAG6K10EAM8A9
The keypad setup section should be on the third step!
Your New Wyze sense Hub firmware just ruined my hub and if you look online thousands of other people as well. The home monitoring system is very important and nothing to be taken likely because it protects our home and the valuables in it why people bought it. Also this hub has a yearly subscription so every day that is down you are wasting our money. I have spent thousands on your merchandise and was happy to. But the problem is that this hub is a very essential key to our ecosystem and now it is ruined and you guys are just laying on this your tech support team should be on this 24/7 until resolved.
Can you get closed caption on the cam recording
I've got the monitoring system and two cameras in a cabin that we have in the woods. The system is worthless. It is a waste of money. I came to the cabin yesterday, and the outside camera sent the notification. I opened the front door and thus the door sensor was opened and what happened? Nothing!! The system was armed "away" and the alarm did not trigger not I received a call from the monitoring system. I left it armed just to see what happened and stayed like nobody was in the house. I've got the notifications but the alarm was never triggered nor emergency calls was received. I am canceling the service. Another issue: there is no costumer service. Just an automated robot to send complaints to.
Hello there. We're so sorry to hear this! Please feel free to give us a call at (206) 339-9646 (US) or 1 (581) 500-1166 (Canada) so that we may better assist you.
Not available in Canada . Pretty sad .
Is there anyway to put a siren in the attic or outside?
How do you offer a security System with no siren alarm? Failure on Wyze Part. You need to offer a siren that can be mounted outside to scare people off.
The WYZE GUY !
How do you mount door sensors? Is it just 3m or have to screw them yo your door?
Can you use the home monitoring service outside of the USA?
Help! Create HMS ID failed. Can't get any help...chat bots are not helpful!!!
Hopefully they make a dash can on day that connects via the wyze app and has at least 170 field of view and 1080p video and upcost under $100
The outdoor cam can be used as a dashcam if you put it on travel mode. That is if you can get the wco to work
@@stephaniebell3966 with the wyze cam outdoor there is travel mode you can only record for a certain amount of time and the wyze cam outdoor unlike their corded v3 is that it does only motion records not contusions A dash cam should be something that you mount on the windshield where it will continually record when the car is on simply by it receiving power because the car would need to be on to supply power of corse. So basally to record when the car is on continuously record and when the car is off since the wyze cam built in battery to only record diction
Dose not look live Dave house
How about I get A Wyze Smart room?
Can I see if someone is at my door if I’m at work? And if so speak to them?
Yes
Available in Canada?
I can't find you linked on the website
Finally found you. I kept seeing two men that clearly were the wrong ethnicity
So far I've owned a wyze kit for 10 hours. It sucks. Can not get a single device to connect. Web support is horrible gave up after 3hr of trying to set up.
Love Wyze. Not so much the software. It's not that reliable.
Ring has it for 100 a year, unlimited everything ... all cameras recording included for 60 days. are you going to match that price?
Bravo
