looking forward for it to be available again.

You and me both! I have 4 cats and we also get racoons walking through my property every day. I love the pet detection.

When are you guys going to combine the pancam and v3? I am waiting on a movable outdoor cam with the newer camera. The v3 is really sharp and even in near darkness gives a great night time picture/video! Iam half tempted to gut one of each to hodgepodge a faux 4!!!

So, they posted an update about the pet detection issue and AI in general. You should go read the full post:

Wyze AI communication - April 2021

Updates from Wyze AI This month, the Wyze AI model update mainly focused on improving Pet detection and Package detection performance. Specifically: Following up on the March training, we did another round of training for the Pet detection algorithm. We see improvements in multiple use cases especially indoor cameras used to detect cats and dogs. The Package detection algorithm is updated. From the in-house dataset, we see big improvements in the accuracy. For the Face Recognition v2 system m…

The part about pet detection, they said this:

Q: I signed up for the AI pilot testing for Face Recognition and Pet detection. But why is it not in my app anymore?

A: Face Recognition is not available for testing right now due to the system migration. If you cannot see the Pet detection, please go to Account > App Settings and clear the cache. Log out of the Wyze app and log in again.

I tried that and it didn’t fix anything (and posted that it didn’t change anything), but you should try it too, and report back in there if it worked for you or even if it didn’t. He’s indicating we should be able to use Pet detection.

Unfortunately, after I activated my new V3, I did not see the option to FILTER on the Pet and Face anymore. It was suddenly removed from the funnel thing as an option to FILTER. Strange thing is that in my notifications that I get on my phone, I see PET notification, but I still cannot FILTER on it.

Interesting…I also tried, but no luck for me as well.

Will you post that in the other thread there so that he reads it and knows that it doesn’t fix our problem and it’s not just an isolated case?
