The Wyze app is getting a major update in July 2024, including a major design change and new features galore. Here are a few things you'll want to look out for after the update!
The Home tab
When we say major, we're talking about the Home tab. It now shows your name, rather than the Wyze logo. The icons to manage your devices, shortcuts, and notifications have also moved.
The Edit pencil for managing your list of devices has been removed in Wyze app 3.0. Preset Rules is now Essential Automations on the Automations tab. |
Favorites
This one's for your favorite-favorite Wyze devices and shortcuts: the Favorites tab. ⭐️
When you open the Wyze app, this list is shown first - the things you've added a star to on your list of devices*. Tip: You can tap and drag all of the elements on this tab to move your shortcuts and live streams right where you want them.
*To get you started, we'll add your top 5 most used devices to your list of favorites. |
Devices
Not looking for your Top 5, but your top 25? Tap on the Devices tab for list of all your Wyze devices in alphabetical order.
Your Device Groups are also listed at the bottom of the list. Tip: If you don't want to scroll, tap on the search icon to search by name. Tap the star icon next to a device to add it to the Favorites tab for easy access.
The Edit pencil for sorting and deleting your devices has been removed in Wyze app 3.0.

Automations
Automations (formerly Rules) have gotten a major reorg as well, with Shortcuts, History, and Preset Rules all in new locations.
Adding automations using the plus sign + has not changed, and functions exactly as before. |
