Is that a locust man/ bug?

Yeah ,Edger the bug man cockroach

Edgar the Bug, the main antagonist of the first Men in Black film. He adopted the disguise of a human farmer while on Earth.

After reviewing my day’s events, I’ve concluded the person recognition is about 90%+ accurate. However, I wouldn’t dare have this thing alert me only when it detects a person if my security really relies on it. Misfiring 10% of the time is a good reason to have another weapon in your drawer.

Wyze cams are not designed as a home security solution, which of course have alarms, alarm monitoring, contracts, and security hardware.

Although, buying thousands of Wyze cams in an attempt to match the lifetime expense of a security system might be just as effective.

I still want sharks with laser beams attached to their heads…

@Cooper, I tested it and my person detection still works even if I toggled all other motion detection notifications on. Did you try restarting your cameras? Although I didn’t need to restart anything and it worked fine.

Newshound · July 10, 2019, 4:22am

Mine also worked without restarting the camera, or changing other settings. As a matter of fact, I think any pixel-related motion settings are required, as I do not believe person detection will happen otherwise.

HDRock · July 10, 2019, 4:28am

Mine works with all other motion detection notifications on or Just Person on.
You have to have motion detection on or it won’t Work at all

HDRock · July 10, 2019, 4:32am

I don’t get notifications From other events With just people turned on But I still get The clips, from other motion , Is that the way it’s supposed to work?

WyzeJasonJ · July 10, 2019, 4:32am

That is correct, that is the way it currently works

HDRock · July 10, 2019, 4:35am

Well I thought so but Was unsure Thanks

HDRock · July 10, 2019, 4:37am

Maybe tomorrow everyone will have their apps updated @Newshound

Newshound · July 10, 2019, 4:38am

God, I hope so, lol.

donnellc.lewis · July 10, 2019, 4:39am

I’m not seeing the option for people detection at all and it says my firmware is up to date.

Newshound · July 10, 2019, 4:40am

Heh. Do you have today’s version of the app? (v2.4.65 for iOS, v2.4.82 for Android) To see the most recent version in the iOS app store, pull down to refresh the list of apps to be updated.

WyzeJasonJ · July 10, 2019, 4:41am

Do you just have that on the clip board at the ready to paste it in, I would get tired of typing it every time lol

HDRock · July 10, 2019, 4:42am

I bet he does

Newshound · July 10, 2019, 4:42am

I keep calling up the 100 or so times tonight I already pasted it in, lol.

donnellc.lewis · July 10, 2019, 4:59am
