Then @Mark5 (Mark A) said

    Anything for tstat in bug fixes? One of these days we might get Stage 2, gas forced air to energize both W1 and W2. I do appreciate the humidifier fix last app update. How about the humidity set point difference of 5% to actual. We'll see. Testing. Thx!
    
    Updated: Nope, it still takes +5% humidity adjustment above current humidity level to trigger humidifier to turn off.

    After the update, I still can't divide rooms with interior walls. . The line goes right through them.

    Was anything done to help address whats going on in this thread? No Tag to select when Submitting Events (Android)

So @joedel263 (joe) replied

    Hey so this bug that many have reported across the last four to five app releases still exists.
    
    It doesnt break the app, but its kindof annoying when you want to view multiple events.
    
    Any type of eta on a fix?

    > This is likely connected to an issue Ive been reporting since they changed how notifications work. If you open notification and event plays, then you hit back button and tap any other event, it will only ever play that first event unless you refresh the page. (Backing out subsequent times will actually only show the single event until you refresh) My assumption is that its saving a variable from the notification (because it now has to make a decision as to whether it shows the event or goes to…

    What device are you using? I'm on an iPhone XS with the latest iOS software and have no issues creating walls in a room.

Then @DP1947 (Dan Prather ) said

    @WyzeYichen i still do not see the Android version in Google play. Was it released?

To which @spamoni4 (Spamoni4) replied

    App: 2.17.31  
    Device: Pixel 5 with Android 11  
    V3 FW: 753-476-9302
    
    New Potential issue, will need to re-verify tomorrow…
    
    I Have a V3 on my Porch and Driveway. I went out my front door and was notified of a person on the phone, Alexa, and was found in the Wyze App. As I progressed down the driveway, Alexa notified of a person and the app recorded it, but no notification. I did this test twice before realizing I had filtered my events tab and being logged into a second phone (iOS iPhone). I then logged out of the iPhone and cleared my filters found in the events tab and did a test again. Went out my garage and to my porch. I was notified from the 2 camera's in the garage, the Driveway Cam and the Porch Cam. Alexa announced a person was detected on all camera's, and the event tab showed all events.
    
    So now I am curious if the lack of notifications is partially because of the filters in the events tab or being logged into a second phone. This is what i will be testing tomorrow.
    
    However, any comments would be appreciated if anyone has an idea.
    
    thanks

To which @rmorgan replied

    I'm not able to see the .31 version either. I even tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling and I'm still on the .7 version. Does anyone know any trick to force it to update to .31?

After which, @DP1947 (Dan Prather ) added

    Why is my Android Wyze app saying 2.17.31 is available, Google says I'm a beta tester, but 2.17.31 isn't there?

After which, @spamoni4 (Spamoni4) added

    It shold be available. I am running 2.17.31. It was downloaded from the Google Store. Wonder if it is worth trying leaving the beta test group and then rejoin.

To which @rmorgan replied

    Just tried that. Completely uninstalled the app, left the beta program and waited until it said I was not in the program. Rebooted the phone. Went to the google store and rejoined the beta program and waited until it said I was in before I reinstalled the app. richard98@example.org… I have beta firmware installed for all devices, but can not get the beta Android app to install.
    
    I'm running a Google Pixel 5. I've seen others post here with that phone too, and are on .31. So I don't know what I'm doing wrong (if anything) that is not letting it install anything past .7.
    
    And just for grins, I tried installing the app on an Android tablet I have. 2.17.7…

Then @rmorgan said

    Interestingly, 2.18.12 is now out and when it was released, I could finally install 2.17.31. And now I can't install 2.18.12. I feel like this is intentional. Like they only want a certain number of people to have the beta version.

To which @spamoni4 (Spamoni4) replied

    I am running into the same now on 2.18.12

So @KittenCanaveral (Kitten Canaveral) replied

    I wonder if this is to do with the way the Play Store rolls out or approves updates, or something else is going on. I am wanting to retest bugs I have run into.

To which @R.Good (RGood) replied

    I tested the heck out of this issue this week. I have deduced (for me and at least one other member I collaborated with) that it is the Detection Zone that is the cause of the lack of push notification;
    
    The following is what I observed  
    Platform: Samsung Galaxy Note10+ (WYZE App v2.17.31 BETA) and iPad Air (WYZE App v2.17.21 PRODUCTION)
    
    **Pan Cam Firmware 753-476-9302**  
    Notifications: ON  
    WYZE AI Events: On  
    All Other Motion Events: OFF  
    Cam Plus Vehicle and Person Detection ON
    
    _Received_ Person and Vehicle notifications on:
    
    **V3 Firmware 753-476-9302**  
    Notifications: ON  
    WYZE AI Events: On  
    All Other Motion Events: OFF  
    Cam Plus Vehicle and Person Detection ON
    
    _Received_ Person and Vehicle notifications on:
    
    **Door Bell Camera Firmware 753-476-9302** Of course no Zone Detection on this camera  
    Notifications: ON  
    WYZE AI Events: On  
    All Other Motion Events: OFF  
    Cam Plus Vehicle and Person Detection ON
    
    _Received_ Person and Vehicle notifications
    
    IF Detection Zone is **ON** you do not get the push notification for Vehicles  
    IF Detection Zone is **OFF** you get push notifications for Vehicles

After which, @spamoni4 (Spamoni4) added

    This is great. I actually turned off the Detection Zone this week (I will need to verify though  ), and my notifications have been off the hook. It constantly notifies me as expected and all within 10 seconds or so - I have run the ADB command.
    
    I have not put the two together (Detection Zones and Notifications) as I have been working on the Schedule Rules issue, which I have resolved and have proven in another post. I was getting a 3 minute delay for certain rules to kick in. Now they are instant.
    
    I will have to turn on Vehicle Detection to see if this actually works for me as well.  
    but my V3's and V2's have been working this week and 1 of my 2 Outdoor cams is working as well. The second has detection zone set. I will turn that off and see.
    
    Thanks for the info on this. It is clear and concise.

Then @R.Good (RGood) said

    For sure. Trying to keep up with you brother…and @carverofchoice
    
    I now have a 3rd confirmation of turning off detection zone resulting in push notifications returning.
    
    Would be nice to know our WYZE Wyzards are getting community analysis and test results.

Then @carverofchoice (Carverofchoice) said

    This is some amazing testing! Well done and well put together! I love these kind of answers that are a high level of contribution! Thanks for sharing.

After which, @R.Good (RGood) added

    I will also add, there is a bit of wonkiness in the vehicle detection from what I have seen.
    
    If there is a person in your driveway (and in my case usually a kid) and a stationary car parked in the driveway, you get a person and vehicle notification at the same time when it is only the person moving.
    
    So I made note of when cars, ups/fedex trucks (and even a semi once (it was a weird situation as semis never come through my neighborhood, I am sure an act of the testing gods  ) went past and checked against my notification. Fun Thread here…
    
    No push notification for Vehicle Wyze AI Events with Cam Plus, Need "All Other Events" On Services & Integrations
    
    > Already the case… WYZE AI: ON ALL OTHER MOTION EVENTS: OFF Identified my neighbor's truck, my sons car, and a few other random vehicles all driving past… sorry no semis. Cameras are about 15 yards from the street. I received the push notifications on all devices complimented with the saved video since the change, right after my earlier post. 
    
    I validated the controls twice turning Zone detection off and on and results were conclusive
    
    Many thanks to @Antonius for feedback as I was kicking this test around.

@spamoni4 (Spamoni4) replied

    I read in one of the Forums that this is because the Motion Triggers the video to be analyzed by the AI engine, if it sees a person, car, package or any other AI option, it will mark all of those regardless if they were moving. I am not sure if they are working on something to only tag the items which were moving, or if this is truly the case. However, I have experienced this exact thing myself.
    
    I have a Camera on my Porch and planning on putting in a Doorbell, when they become available. I turned on Vehicle, Person, and Package, I had a delivery and it accurately marked the Person and Package, but also included my car in the driveway.

After which, @R.Good (RGood) added

    Yea, you mentioned you needed to run a wire for the doorbell. Did you get one ordered? Or no luck yet?  
    Sounds like the pre-orders are close to being shipped out, which should open up stock soon.
    
    If not, hit me up, I ordered 2 “just in case” and at the price point not to much of a hit. You do some fantastic testing and would be happy to send it to you if the wait gets long.

To which @spamoni4 (Spamoni4) replied

    I appreciate that. Have not ordered one, on the notification list. Got the wire run and connected to my Eufy Battery Doorbell. Can't wait to get to one ecosystem.
    
    If it takes too long to get one, I will reach out, but all is good so far. Thanks for the offer.
    
    I find these products exceptional and being in the IT field understand that there will be flaws. That is why these forums are so important. I always try to ensure I can provide information which may benefit others - as you do.
    
    It is a welcome change when there are others who are on the same page and want to provide supporting information, answers, and options or suggestions to make things work better. Impressive find on the Detection Zones issues.

So @R.Good (RGood) replied

    While we are on the cam topic, I have 3 cameras out of 13 ( a v3, Pan Cam, and a V2) that are recording events for sound, and I have that option disabled.
    
    I have toggled the option on and off a couple times, cleared cache data from the app, and logged out and back in to the app, but continue to get recording events for sound.
    
    Anyone else experiencing the same?

So @spamoni4 (Spamoni4) replied

    I only used the the sound in my Garage for a short period of time and then turned it off. I have not experienced this issue but will test later today to see what happens.

After which, @DP1947 (Dan Prather ) added

    Sane thing for me, but the 2.18.12 came shortly after.
