The whole "I have nothing to hide" mentality is absolutely nuts, you don't care if some stranger is watching over you and your wife rocking your baby to sleep? Do you even hear yourself? Just because I have nothing to hide doesn't mean anyone has permission to see.

I hear you. Show me a system that is 100% secure and I’ll show you one that is completely unusable ;) My statement wasn’t meant to be that we should give up our rights to privacy or not expect vendors to do a very good job with security, BUT hacking will happen. If I don’t feel comfortable with something every making it outside of my home - I don’t create the opportunity. Thanks for watching and your insightful comment! 🤔

Thank u exactly

I had this camera a few months ago with peoples voices on it, heard it through my headphones. I even brought it to my local police station. Honestly forget even considering Wyze, their cameras aren’t safe and cannot be trusted. I was a bit paranoid after that happened like I thought my house was going to get robbed. Luckily not. Whoever was on that camera did not have authorized access and was no one I knew.

So creepy. I believe this happened to me, theres noone else listed on the access to the camera - yet they spoke through it to my child. Now I have a pistol fuzed to my side.

Great advice, I currently bought a wyze cam pan. I like the two step authentication idea

Cherise - it's a great product for sure. Turn on MFA and enjoy! Also, tomorrow I'm dropping a video about a new completely secure webcam that uses tokens/keys instead of usernames and passwords. Make sure to sub and get all notifications so you don't miss it!

Thank you for sharing this! my buddy has been a big user of the Wyze products, and we just started using their cameras in our home this past week. Going to be doing a video for my real estate clients on how to set up home security cameras and home automation for the more frugal homeowners (like myself).

Thanks for watching Nick and thanks for leaving a comment. They’re great units - the ecosystem is where it’s at. Switch’s, bulbs, door locks, sensors and cameras. They’re working on an outdoor solution right now apparently ... and maybe even a thermostat rumor has it :)

I decided to buy the Cam 3 1 day I'm connecting it because I was going to bed and I realized that I can hear someone talking and I also can hear a TV on when everything in my house was off when I put my ear on through the phone and the wyze camera that's where it was coming from how can I hear someone else's TV in my house through the Wyze I did contact support but nobody answer I just disconnected the camera it's a cheap camera at the beginning it was working good but now I'm getting all these things through the camera I no longer put it on don't trust it

I have 3 wyze v3 at home, I noticed when I open the wyze app to check and that I found out the light brink red. But one of the camera brink red even I did not check from my phone.

This can happen for a lot of reasons including motion recording and or loss of signal. I’d recommend turning on 2FA regardless. 👍

Hopefully they learn from their mistakes fast ..because a few more hacks , I guarantee the company will go down fast,very fast ....but for now I still love wyze...

Does Wyze employ actual cyber security professionals? Like, how do you accidentally leave TWO databases open?

My camera was hacked by a man waving his hand and pointing his phone to my camera and that was it now my camera picks up nothing but shows a green palm as though it is waving. Whats with that.

I think my camera is hacked, when I say that I mean that at late at night I’ve seen the camera moving and stuff and I don’t know what to do

I’ve seen KZread reviewers where they cover the QR Code on the device and some don’t. What’s the risk there? Can someone hack your cameras if they or your visitors to your home scan or take a photo of that code? Thanks. I just subscribed after seeing this Wyze video promoted on my KZread home page. I love the possibilities of Wyze even though they are not yet available in Australia 🇦🇺.

Someone hacked mine personally me. I was having sex and my camera started recording. I noticed it turned red and thought it was weird but just turned em off. Noticed tonight they turn red when they record

Mine as hacked the night I got it. I have a recording of someone whispering “ain’t no joke.. ain’t it”. Wyze never called me back either,

This just happened to me. I got one and had no issues, broke so I got a second one. Well I thought my wife was moving it while she was at work. Then realized while she was here it was not her...I just got home right now and I moved it to face the wall away from us. Well, it half an hour after getting home it was moved again so its facing ME and my Child watching TV in the living room. Called the wife only to be told shes NOT EVEN ON THE APP! 2 days and it Hacked and yes Motion sensor is off and NIGHT MODE WOULD NOT TURN OFF no matter what I did. Never using these units again.

Well, the free cloud motion detection is 12 seconds. No other camera vendor offers anything close/better than that. For $5 you can toss a 32gb microsd card in and get days of unlimited storage. They’re also offering more storage for a small fee if you have the bandwidth and don’t want to use sd cards. Very flexible.

@@TheNetGuy yes i bought mine as a bundle and it came with a 32GB micro sd card but i still could never go past 12 seconds. Then i switched it to "local storage" so it would just record all day... i just want longer motion recording time. I had recorded one event where my room mate went into my room but i couldnt see anything after 12 seconds!. so annoying. if you know of a camera that goes longer than 12 seconds please let me know.

Good question, but no - there are settings for auto lighting that may apply.

Wyze doesn’t have 2 factor authentication. It’s still easily hacked. I wouldn’t waste my time with their products unless you don’t mind people watching you. My family had someone waking up my kids in the middle of the night through the camera.

I hope you respond to this, did you ever have a incident like someone hacked into your Wyze cam and just said stuff like in the ring camera incident? Thanks.

and if i remove the camera, how can i reset it up again, and or is it ok to reset after deleting the camera? also, if they know my email address? can they reset passwords on their computer or their phones? also, they were in my office with all the wifi and router hardware, can this be a hacker's dream?

Does this mean i shouldn't buy the wyze cam?

I think it means regardless of brand you buy, you should follow the three pieces of guidance I sent. Nothing is totally secure - if you can’t afford to have it disclosed, don’t record/point a camera at it :(
