Nice to see someone else posting about this. I just saw this notice a few days ago and immediately went out and bought some tp-link cams to replace them with.

Nice to see someone else posting about this. I just saw this notice a few days ago and immediately went out and bought some tp-link cams to replace them with. I've always been confused about the local recording with wyze - never finding where in the app I can bring it up - but just assumed it was there somewhere since I added the sd cards to them.. I would be extra ticked off if I was out of town and got this message that my cams would stop working unless I paid the extortion fees. One of the selling points of this system was that you did not have to pay for cloud crap - and now that's out the window it seems. Might be time for a new list of non-cloud needed cam systems. I need to do some amazon reviews to put this new info as an update I guess. c'est la vie wyze - I was always on the edge of trust / not trust.. and now you've proven true colors, which makes me worry about other things with your hardware / software. If someone can firmware replace I'd love to know, I have three wyze cams open and in use and two brand new in a box - useless to me now.
