I understand that sadly EVERYONE is relying heavily on AWS, from Disney to Netflix, to DoD, to Wyze, etc etc etc…
But there has got to be a way that when I’m in my house, on my wifi, that I can control devices locally to me whether AWS goes down or not!
Please find a way to patch in that capability or I and probably many others will go the more tedious route, but also more stable and secure route of using things like HomeAssisstant SonOff and so on.
I like Wyze a lot! I want to continue using these products but if I can’t control the light right next to me because AWS is down… that’s a deal breaker!
Disagree. Resiliency across regions certainly helps but providing local control (even if only in a fallback mode) handles many more failure scenarios (loss of local Internet and others).
