Wyze Cam v3 Pro Person Detection FAQs

Wyze Cam v3 Pro uses a powerful Edge AI microprocessor for free, onboard Person Detection—no subscription required. But we know you have questions about what that means, and we have answers!

Is it the same Person Detection you get with Cam Plus and Cam Unlimited?

No, it is not the same Person Detection. It is not as powerful and does not include features like no cooldown, unlimited video, or extra verification included with Cam Plus and Cam Unlimited.

Do I get other Wyze smart AI features for free like pet and package Detection, or facial recognition?

No, Wyze Cam v3 Pro only includes on-board Person Detection - with a snapshot image only. With Cam Plus, you get smart detection like Pet, Package, Vehicle Detection, no cooldown, and unlimited length video recordings. Cam Unlimited gives you all that Wyze AI has to offer plus Friendly Faces and video verify.
