Wyze sense stopped working after latest update - Fixed

[Jugrnot]

I know this integration is not supported by HA, and is no longer maintained by Kevin, but for now I'm stuck using it until I can save a few pennies for a more robust and reliable solution.

After the recent update for the security patches, my integration stopped working entirely and I took to the Home Assistant discord community for some help and someone promptly found the fix. This component is calling a piece of hardware that no longer exists, apparently. The following output was found in the HA Log file:

My configuration.yaml settings for sense were as follows:
binary_sensor:

• platform: wyzesense
  device: "/dev/hidraw1"

Updated that to this, saved and restarted HA:
binary_sensor:

• platform: wyzesense
  device: auto

Hopefully this helps someone out!
