• Possibilities and Limitations of the Wyze camera
  • Without an Echo Show or Echo Spot, the only way to view the camera is thru the Wyze app.
  • There is a 10 minute limit on watching the live feed thru the app
    • Will that be true with the Echo Show ?
  • Only two people can view the camera in the Wyze App
    • You do that thru the Share option.
    • After the Echo Show is delivered, can that view the camera while two folks looking thru the app ?
  • The Wyze skill does not support 2-Way Audio or pan/tilt/zoom capabilities.
  • If the Echo does not have a screen, then it cannot be used to command the Wyze Cam V2.
    • I can use the Echo Show (coming Dec 10) or Echo Spot, Erin gets her Spot today.
  • The alert videos triggered by motion or sound detection are stored on the Amazon AWS cloud, and are only viewable through the Wyze app.
