Many users have been reporting that their Blink Camera is not recording despite the fact that the app says it is. This can be a frustrating issue, but there are a few things you can try to troubleshoot it.
First, make sure that your Blink Camera is actually turned on. To do this, press the button on the back of the camera. If the light is solid green, then the camera is on. If the light is flashing green, then the camera is in sync mode.
If the light is on, but the camera still isn’t recording, try deleting and reinstalling the Blink app.
If that doesn’t work, try restarting your phone or tablet.
If the camera still isn’t recording, there might be a problem with your network. Try connecting to a different network or contact your Internet Service Provider for help.
If none of these solutions work, the camera might need to be replaced. Contact Blink customer service for more help.

Why isn’t my Blink picking up motion?
If you’re having trouble getting your Blink motion sensor to detect movement, there are a few things you can try.
First, be sure that your Blink is in a location where it can detect movement. Make sure there’s nothing blocking its view, and that it’s not too far from where you want to monitor activity.
You may also want to try adjusting the sensitivity of your Blink. To do this, open the Blink app and tap the Menu icon (three lines in the upper-left corner). Then select “Settings” and “Motion Sensitivity.” You can then adjust the sensitivity to make it more or less sensitive to movement.
If you’re still having trouble getting your Blink to detect motion, please contact our Support team for assistance.
How do I get my Blink camera to record motion?
Blink cameras are designed to be wireless and easy to set up, making them a popular choice for home security. One of the most common questions users have is how to get their Blink camera to record motion.
There are a few different ways to do this. The first is to create a motion detection zone. To do this, open the Blink app and select the camera you want to configure. Tap the settings gear in the top right corner and select Motion Detection. Tap the Create Zone button and draw a rectangle around the area you want the camera to monitor for motion.
You can also set the sensitivity of the motion detection. The higher the sensitivity, the more likely the camera will detect motion, but also the more false positives you’ll get. You can also set the camera to record motion only when there is no one home. To do this, open the Blink app and select the camera you want to configure. Tap the settings gear in the top right corner and select Recording. Tap the Recording Schedule button and set Recording to On Only When Home is Selected.
Finally, you can set the camera to record motion continuously. To do this, open the Blink app and select the camera you want to configure. Tap the settings gear in the top right corner and select Recording. Tap the Recording Mode button and set it to Continuous.
How do I restart my Blink camera?
If you’re having trouble with your Blink camera, there are a few things you can try to restart it.
First, try unplugging the camera and plugging it back in. If that doesn’t work, try holding down the power button on the back of the camera for about 10 seconds until the light flashes.
If that still doesn’t work, you may need to reset the camera. To do this, press and hold the reset button on the back of the camera for about 10 seconds.
Why does my Blink camera take so long to start recording?
If your Blink camera is taking a long time to start recording, there are a few things you can do to troubleshoot the issue.
First, make sure that your camera is plugged in and that the power cord is fully connected. If the power cord is not fully connected, your camera may not be able to start recording.
If your camera is plugged in and still not recording, try restarting your camera. To restart your camera, unplug the power cord from the camera and plug it back in. Wait for the camera to start up, and then try recording again.
If your camera is still not recording, there may be a problem with your camera’s software. In this case, you may need to contact Blink customer support for assistance.
How do I know if my Blink camera is recording?
There are a few ways to tell if your Blink camera is recording. One way is to check your app. If the app says “recording,” your camera is recording. You can also check your camera’s status light. If the light is on, your camera is recording.
There may not be a physical reset button on Blink cameras, but users can still reset the device using a few different methods.
If the Blink camera is not working properly, users can reset the device by unplugging it from the power source and then plugging it back in.
If the Blink camera is frozen or not responding, users can reset the device by pressing and holding the reset button for 10 seconds.
If the Blink camera is not connecting to the wireless network, users can reset the device by pressing and holding the reset button for 30 seconds.
Resetting the Blink camera can help to resolve various issues that the device may be experiencing.
The reset button on the Blink module is a small, circular button located on the bottom of the module. It is used to reset the module to its default settings.
