Problem Description

Wyze error code 0 is iOS-specific complete connection failure. Wyze app on iPhone cannot establish any connection to cameras.

Symptoms

  • Error code 0 on iPhone
  • Connection failed all cameras
  • App crashes loading cameras
  • Works Android not iOS
  • Cameras offline only on iPhone
  • Error after iOS update

Recognize these? Here's what usually causes it.

Common Causes

  • iOS permissions not granted
  • VPN blocking local
  • WiFi Assist interfering
  • App data corrupted
  • iOS version incompatible
  • Network privacy settings

Most fixes happen in the first 3 steps.

Warning

Reset Network Settings forgets all WiFi passwords. Have password ready before reset.

Step-by-Step Solution

1

Check All Permissions

Go to iPhone Settings then Wyze. Enable ALL toggles: Local Network, Camera, Microphone, Notifications, Background App Refresh.

2

Disable VPN

If using VPN on iPhone, disable temporarily. VPNs prevent local camera access. Add Wyze to exceptions or turn off VPN.

3

Turn Off WiFi Assist

Go to Settings, Cellular, scroll bottom and turn off WiFi Assist. This switches to cellular when WiFi weak, breaking camera connections.

4

Reinstall Wyze App

Delete Wyze app. Restart iPhone. Reinstall from App Store. Grant ALL permissions when prompted.

5

Reset Network Settings

Go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset Network Settings. Clears all network configs. Reconnect to WiFi and try Wyze.

Quick Solutions

Grant all iOS permissions
Disable VPN temporarily
Turn off WiFi Assist
Reinstall Wyze app
Check iOS compatibility
Reset network settings

Still having issues? This is usually the deeper cause below.

If the keypad rejects valid codes, a lockout timer may be running — five failed entries locks most keypads silently for 5–10 minutes.

Pro Tip

Error 0 on iOS is often permission-related. When reinstalling, pay attention to prompts and always Allow.

Real-World Insight

This issue almost always looks more complex than it is — the majority of cases trace back to a single setting, a stale credential, or a default that shipped wrong.

What Usually Goes Wrong
