Let’s be blunt … this is a Wyze issue. I didn’t read all posts - maybe every 2nd, 3rd post. Some responses are pretty creative.
“ISP lag” … not even sure what that means, unless you’re old school and doing dial up using a 9600 baud modem for Internet access.
“my Gmail also doesn’t deliver instantly” … No issues here - I send an email, the recipient gets the email within five or so seconds.
“Android settings” … I doubt it - see [1]
“I fixed this with ADB or IFTTT” … unacceptable - the average user won’t know how to config those. And besides, one shouldn’t have to.
[1] On my Samsung S10+, the Notification settings and app settings for Wyze and Nest are exactly the same. I have 10 Nest cameras, and just a few moments ago, i walked across all - I get a notification NOW, within 2 seconds.
For the three Wyze cameras I am testing …well, I’ve been sitting here for over ten minutes and have yet to receive a notification. Oh sure, I see the 12 second entry in the Event tab, but no notification yet.
I read a post back in July 2019 that Wyze “has identified the issue and will have a fix this month or next month”. Well, it’s almost Mar 2020 and I dont see the fix.
BTW, I’m a software engineer with 30+ year experience, to include vast experience as a Site Reliability Engineer, So, all these “workarounds” and “explanations” aren’t acceptable (and some don’t make sense). I’d also suggest their software project management execution is lacking.
Functionality like an Event Notification is paramount to a security camera system.
Let’s use another example… let’s say you have a home intrusion security system … do you think an alarm should sound the moment someone breaks in? And that you should get a notification within seconds of that event? Of course you do. Doesn’t make sense the siren would sound ten minutes after the break-in.
EDIT: I just received a notification… 35 minutes after the movement event.
