Over-the-Air (OTA) Updates for Wyze Cameras

Upgrading with upgrade-run.sh

To upgrade your Wyze camera's firmware over the air, use the upgrade-run.sh command in the camera's shell.

Before you start:

• Ensure that there's at least 300MB of free space on your memory card.

What happens during the upgrade:

1. The command backs up important files, including:
   • The wz_mini.conf configuration file.
   • Any custom files in wz_mini/etc/configs.
   • SSH keys.
   • Wireguard configurations.
2. The script then downloads the latest master version of wz_mini to your device.
3. The camera reboots into upgrade mode.
4. The script performs the firmware upgrade.
5. After the upgrade, the camera reboots to the updated system.

If there are differences between your current wz_mini.conf and the new version, the script keeps your existing configuration intact.

After the upgrade:

• The latest configuration file (wz_mini.conf.dist) is always available in /opt/wz_mini/etc/wz_mini.conf.dist.
