Why does it have a microphone? Is for a window to look outside. If the purpose is to record outside through a glass window. Why a microphone? I want it for my kids room to and my room. Why would I want to be able to listen inside a room? I have to return it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for sharing your feedback we understand your concerns and appreciate you taking the time to explain them.
The Wyze Window Cam includes a microphone to provide added functionality, allowing users to capture audio along with video. While it’s optimized for recording through glass with reduced glare, many customers also choose to use it indoors to monitor children, pets, or general home activity, where audio can be helpful.
We understand that privacy is especially important in personal spaces like bedrooms. If preferred, the microphone can be disabled in the Wyze app settings. If the Wyze Window Cam doesn’t meet your needs, we completely understand your decision to return it.
If you have not, please reach out to our Wizards team (https://support.wyze.com/hc/en-us) so we may help diagnose the issue or assist with next steps. We’re always happy to help.
I wanted a camera to view in front of my house and driveway. I like the nighttime view in color. It's view is sharp and clear. I will be getting another for my backyard at some point although my neighbor's backyard camera angle also sees my yard as well. The technology has improved very much since he installed his. This is seen in the clarity of this new camera I just installed.
I couldn’t be happier with my Wyze Window Cameras. They have been incredibly reliable from day one, with a clear, sharp picture both during the day and at night. The video quality is impressive for the price, making it easy to see exactly what’s happening outside my windows. Installation was quick and straightforward—I had them up and running in minutes with no hassle. The app is easy to use, and notifications are timely and accurate, which really adds to the peace of mind. Honestly, I liked them so much that I went back and bought extra cameras to cover more areas. It’s hard to beat the combination of reliability, great image quality, and ease of use at this price point. I highly recommend Wyze Window Cameras to anyone looking for a simple, effective home security solution.
