Thank you for sharing your feedback about the Wyze Battery Cam Pro’s motion detection. We value hearing about real-world experiences like yours. If you have not already, please reach out to our Wizards team (https://support.wyze.com/hc/en-us) so we may help diagnose the issue and assist further.
I purchased 4 of these cameras to provide video coverage of my exterior AND to provide much needed light in dark outside areas. They have performed admirably and have done what I expected from them. If you use multiple Wyze Battery Cam Pro cameras, do yourself a favor and purchase an extra battery, or two, so you won’t have to be without video/light when one or two batteries need recharging at the sane time.
I have 2 other cameras (same model). I was very happy with them so I thought I would add a third. This one has been very problematic and I should probably send it back. It doesn’t alert me like the others do or when it should, but it will randomly sound the alarm though it is in a closed garage. I’ve updated the software but still happens.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with your Wyze Battery Cam Pro. We truly appreciate you letting us know what’s been happening, especially since your other cameras have been working well.
I’m glad you mentioned the alert and alarm behavior you’re seeing with this third camera. In some cases, alert consistency and unexpected alarms can be influenced by motion sensitivity, alarm settings, or environmental factors even in enclosed spaces like a garage. It’s great to hear you’ve already kept the firmware up to date.
To help get this sorted as smoothly as possible, we’d love for you to connect with our Wizards team, who can take a closer look and help diagnose what’s going on: https://support.wyze.com/hc/en-us
They can walk through event recording behavior, alarm settings, and setup checks to see what’s causing the difference compared to your other cameras. And of course, if it turns out that a return or replacement is the best next step, they’ll be happy to help with that as well.
Thank you again for your honest feedback it really helps us improve and ensures you get the reliable experience you expect from Wyze.
Very bad battery life (less than 24 hours) and one of the 2 battery cameras stopped working altogether.

Hi there, thank you for sharing your experience with the Wyze Battery Cam Pro. We’re truly sorry to hear about the battery performance and the unit that stopped working. We understand how frustrating this must be, especially when the device doesn’t meet expectations.
We appreciate your honest feedback, and we’ll make sure this is shared with the team for further review and improvement. Thank you for taking the time to let us know.

I love the Battery Cam Pro, but was a little disappointed that I had to buy a subscription in order to use many of the features. It's a small amount to pay for the features available. I wish that Wyze would offer a printed manual, but they do provide support via chat or phone.
Image quality is real bad lighting doesn’t adjust well when changing lights on and off

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear about the poor image quality you're experiencing with your Wyze Battery Cam Pro. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can follow to improve the image quality and address lighting adjustment issues:
Steps to Troubleshoot Poor Image Quality Update the Wyze App:
Open the Wyze app and navigate to the Account tab > tap About. Check your app version and compare it to the latest version listed on our Release Notes & Firmware page (https://support.wyze.com/hc/en-us/articles/360024852172-Release-Notes-Firmware). If outdated, update the app via your mobile device's app store. Update the Camera Firmware:
Go to the Account tab > Firmware Update in the Wyze app. If an update is available for the camera, proceed with updating it. Check the Camera Lens:
Remove any plastic film or cover on the lens. Gently clean the lens with a soft cloth to remove dust or debris. If using a third-party cover, remove it. Adjust Live Stream Resolution:
Switch the live stream resolution to HD in the Wyze app. Note: 2.5K resolution requires more bandwidth, which could affect connectivity and image quality. Cycle Night Vision Settings:
Go to the camera’s settings > Advanced Settings and toggle Night Vision through On, Off, and Auto. Toggle IR Lights:
If the issue occurs during Night Vision, toggle the IR lights on and off in Advanced Settings > Night Vision IR Lights. Check Signal Strength:
In the Wyze app, go to the camera’s settings > Device Info > Signal Strength. If the signal strength is 2 bars or less, try moving the camera closer to the router. Reboot the Router:
Restart your router to ensure a stable connection. Power Cycle the Camera:
Remove the battery pack for 10 seconds, then reinsert it firmly into the camera. Factory Reset the Camera:
Remove any microSD card from the camera. With the camera powered on, press and hold the setup button (inside the battery compartment) for 10 seconds until the status light turns solid yellow. Once the light flashes yellow and blue, set up the camera again. If the issue persists, please contact our support team with the following:
An app log (steps to submit an app log can be found here (https://support.wyze.com/hc/en-us/articles/360033507872-How-do-I-submit-a-log-in-the-Wyze-app). The MAC address of the camera (found in the battery compartment or in the Wyze app under Device Info). A picture, screen recording, or downloaded Event showing the issue.
