Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Wyze Camera Error 06 keep happening?
Error 06 typically occurs when there's a mismatch between your account credentials and the device authorization. This often happens after password changes, account updates, or when devices are shared between multiple accounts.
Will I lose my camera settings if I sign out and back in?
No, signing out and back into the Wyze app will not affect your camera settings. Your configurations are stored on Wyze's servers and will remain intact when you log back in with the same account.
Can Error 06 be caused by sharing my camera with others?
Yes, device sharing can sometimes trigger Error 06 if there are conflicts with account permissions. Make sure shared users are properly added through the Wyze app's sharing feature rather than sharing login credentials.
How do I know if my Wyze account is working properly?
You can verify your account is working by successfully logging into the Wyze app and seeing all your devices listed. If you can access other Wyze devices but not a specific camera, the issue is likely device-specific rather than account-related.
