Can I still buy an actual IP camera?
I bought a used Wyze Cam V2 relatively cheap and installed OpenMiko on it for example.

Docker instance won't connect to IP cam
I have a WyzeCamV2 running OpenMiko firmware, which supports (and I have configured for) H264 RTSP streaming. I can view the video stream through VLC with the url rtsp://192.168.1.199:8554/video3_unicast. I am executing the command docker run -p 8081:80 --name mycamera -e AGENT_CAPTURE_IPCAMERA_RTSP="rtsp://192.168.1.199:8554/video3_unicast" kerberos/agent:latest on my host. The agent seems to run fine and I can connect via browser. With our without AGENT_CAPTURE_IPCAMERA_RTSP... set, I cannot add the RTSP stream; no cameras show attached and when I try to connect one via dashboard->settings, it just spins. The logs aren't really helpful (see below).

Ultra popular Linus Tech Tips abruptly drops their sponsor, Eufy Home Security Cameras, when it's revealed that Eufy has been secretly uploading images of the home owner, despite explicitly stating that the product only stores images locally.
That's why I only use cameras flashed with open firmware: https://github.com/openmiko/openmiko

[Security Camera] WYZE Cam v3 with 3-Months Cam Plus (2-Pack) $35 free shipping
If all else fails, you can flash different firmware and use them locally. I'm using [OpenMiko](https://github.com/openmiko/openmiko) on my Wyze Cam v1 (I'd assume there's a similar open-source project for the v3), and Wyze themselves publishes an RTSP firmware. Without a bit of technical know-how and some supporting hardware (namely a router than supports OpenVPN) you won't have access to the stream off your local network, but you can stream locally with VLC Player.

Software like iSpy for Wyze?
I think OpenMiko is what you're looking for.
-
Wyze app alternative?
You probably want a custom firmware. Something like dafang or openmikothat would give you full control over the camera.

Ask HN: Self-hosted open source IP security cameras?
For open source and self-hosted, I've been pretty pleased with openmiko (https://github.com/openmiko/openmiko). I put this on a couple $20-ish wyze cams that are used adhoc right now, but will be combined with frigate and home assistant when I can get ahold of a Coral USB device.

2/16/24 Wyze Security Incident Update
I finally gave up trying to use the mini hacks to make RTSP work reliably. I ended up using Wyze Bridge [0] instead, and it has been far more stable. Using Frigate for the web UI. It doesn't make for a local-only solution, but I don't use my cameras to record anything that would bother me if other people saw it.

Are there good open source CCTV mobile apps? I want to replace my Wyze cameras with a self-hosted alternative, but I still want to have a good way to access it from my phone
No worries, I used Wyze Bridge, there’s no need to flash a firmware it just works with any stock Wyze firmware.

Reddit AMA - 5/9/2023
There have been several community developed projects for the wyze cams like WyzeHacks, wz_mini_hacks, and docker-wyze-bridge, however, it seems as though each project is slowly getting killed off with every new product and firmware release.
WYZE decided against RTSP implementation after the experimental Betas. However, you can get RTSP plus a myriad other features on v2 and v3 via docker-wyze-bridge or wz_mini_hacks. If your firmware version is beyond the version required, you can downgrade it by flashing an older version -- Firmware Downgrade Instructions

Record whole days worth of video to cloud?
Depending on which cam model(s), you can achieve it with docker-wyze-bridge or wz_mini_hacks

Looking for an alternative
Another diy option is frigate. Although it won’t work with the v3 pro because the pro doesn’t support rtsp. Actually I just checked and docker-wyze-bridge does support the pro so you could run that along with frigate to manage your wyze cams.
What are some alternatives?
