The unofficial Wyze integration with Home Assistant is partially back
Wyze has allowed the development of the Home Assistant custom component to continue, but not without any serious restrictions.
The Wyze Cam v2 is a home security camera that offers 1080p Full HD livestreaming, allowing users to view their home in real-time using a mobile device. It also features two-way audio for communication through the Wyze app. Users can enable mobile push notifications for alerts when motion is detected, eliminating the need for constant monitoring. The camera also supports continuous recording to a microSD card (not included), regardless of motion or sound detection. Additionally, the Wyze Cam v2 includes night vision capabilities, enabling users to see up to 30 feet (ca. 9 m) in darkness thanks to 4 infrared (IR) LEDs.

The Wyze Cam is a top-rated security camera not only due to its low price point. As things stand there is, unfortunately, no easy way of integrating the Wyze Cam V3 with Home Assistant.
Using RTSP you can display your Wyze Cam v2's video stream on any supported platform. And it just so happens that Home Assistant supports RTSP.
A couple of days ago Wyze decided to once again show some love to those wanting to integrate their Wyze Cam V2 or Wyze Cam Pan with Home Assistant using RTSP.
