The siren on my Wyze Cam Pan v4 isn’t functioning, and the camera frequently shifts from its set position, tilting upward by roughly 15–20 degrees on its own. Every time I check it, I have to readjust its position manually. I’ve gone through all the settings to try to fix the issue, but nothing works.
I also own three Wyze Cam Pan v3 cameras, only one still has a working motor, while the other two are completely frozen. Wyze really needs to improve the motor quality, connectivity, and move up to 24fps performance if they want this product to truly shine, because right now, it falls short.
I was also disappointed in the rollout, it would’ve been nice to receive an email announcing the release of a product I had been "eagerly" anticipating, but instead, I found out by accident. I’ve loved the earlier versions of the camera, but while the newer models have made some nice improvements, they’ve declined in overall quality, especially in the motors.
I’d gladly pay more if these issues were addressed and improvements implemented. Until then, I’m holding off on upgrading my other eight Wyze cams. It’s better to build one product right than to produce twenty others that are half-baked and that’s exactly what seems to be happening here. I am very disappointed with this product.
Thank you.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there, thank you for sharing your detailed feedback and concerns regarding the Wyze Cam Pan v4 and Wyze Cam Pan v3. We sincerely apologize for the issues you've encountered and the frustration they’ve caused. Your input is incredibly valuable to us, and we want to address your concerns as thoroughly as possible. Regarding the Wyze Cam Pan v4 Issues: Siren Not Functioning: Unfortunately, we don’t have specific troubleshooting steps for the siren issue at this time. If you’ve already checked the settings and it’s still not working, we recommend reaching out to our support team for further assistance or a potential replacement. Camera Shifting Position: The Wyze Cam Pan v4 may reset its position during initialization, which could explain the tilting. If the camera is panning back to its original position after manual adjustments, this could be due to its default settings. Unfortunately, we don’t have a specific solution for this issue at the moment. Regarding the Wyze Cam Pan v3 Issues: For the two cameras with frozen motors, we recommend trying the following troubleshooting steps: Recalibrate the Camera: In the Wyze app, go to Settings > Advanced Settings > Motor Controls > Reset Position > Reset. Update the Firmware: Ensure the camera’s firmware is up to date by navigating to the Account tab > Firmware Update in the Wyze app. Check for Obstructions: Confirm there’s nothing physically blocking the camera’s movement. Toggle Privacy Mode: Turn Privacy Mode off and on from the live stream view in the app. If these steps don’t resolve the issue, it may be necessary to contact our support team for further assistance or a replacement.

Wyze Cam Pan V4 is an excellent upgrade to the excellent Pan V3 in almost every area of functionality. One can hardly hear the motor as it pans, the 4K images are crystal clear. However it is still plagued by the inability as the V3 pan to keep the Pan way points locked in position for a TV least a month before recalibrating. This is my only criticism of this camera. Excellent device I recommend it’s purchase
I bougth 3 of these cameras. I loved the camera functions, but needs some improvement: I have a Fast Internet connection and everytime I used the Pan and changed waypoints, the image is frozen and I need to restart the camera to be operational. I thought installing the latest firmware will fix the issue. Also, just watching on Live view, the time will stop and the image is frozen. I hope there's a fix regarding these issues.
Great picture, but the camera is not stable and is
