Whenever you’re having problems with your Blink camera, there are a few ways you can fix it. You can perform a couple of quick tasks that can help you get the camera working again. Whether you’re experiencing a problem with the Live View or you’re having problems with the camera’s Sync Module, these tips will help.
Reset the Sync Module
Sync Modules are devices that connect Blink cameras to Wi-Fi. If you are experiencing internet issues, you may need to reset the Sync Module. This can be done by using a small screwdriver or paperclip. The process can take as little as five to ten seconds.
The first step is to unplug the power cord from the SM. You may also need to unplug your modem or router. After removing the SM, wait a minute before plugging it back in. If you still cannot connect to the internet, it may be because of a problem with your modem or router. You may need to power cycle the router or modem.
Next, you will need to hold the RESET button for about five seconds until the light turns red. After that, the Sync Module will reboot.
You may need to use a paper clip to hold the reset button for the Sync Module. The paper clip can also be used to hold the reset button for the Blink camera. This can be helpful for those who have lost the reset button.
Once the Sync Module has rebooted, it will be ready to be added to the Blink app. You will then need to input your Sync Module’s serial number. This is located on the bottom of the Sync Module. You will then be asked to enter new Wi-Fi credentials. You will then be able to see the cameras again.
If you are still experiencing issues with your Blink camera, you may need to reset the Sync module. If you have trouble, you can contact Blink Support. They can help you with factory resets. You can also contact customer service to get the Sync Module reset.
Generally, the Sync Module reset will work for most issues. The process can take up to 30 seconds. The Blink app will also give you instructions. You can also try checking your internet connection or restarting the camera. If you are still experiencing problems, you may need to reset the Sync Camera to resync the camera to your account.
Disable any energy-saving features in the Blink app
Luckily, there are a few ways to turn off the gimmicks and save some money in the process. In particular, you can disable any energy-saving features in the Blink app. In addition to reducing battery life, these features may slow down your camera’s response time.
To disable any energy-saving features in the Blink App, you can do so by going to Battery -> Power -> DISABLE Battery Saving. Once you have done so, you’ll have to reboot your Blink system. This will take a few minutes, on average. Afterward, you can start using your Blink Camera again.
There are a few other energy-saving features that you can turn off in the Blink app. One of these is the “Moves” feature. This is a nice touch, as it helps your camera to stay in motion despite movement by other people. It also helps you to see who is in your room without having to lift a finger. However, this feature can be a real pain to use, especially if you’re out of town.
Another option is to enable motion detection. The motion detecting function of the Blink app can be turned on or off depending on your requirements. Regardless of which mode you’re using, it’s important to keep the camera’s cord in a secure location. If it’s not being secured properly, you could experience problems.
If you have a Blink Camera that’s not getting the battery life you want, you can use the app’s “Delete Camera” function to remove the camera from your Blink system. This will remove it from your home screen, but it won’t delete it from your Blink account. Luckily, you can easily restore it to your Blink device if you ever decide to move.

Check if the camera is functioning
Getting a blink camera is a great way to keep an eye on your pets or home. The Blink device works with your smartphone to provide live feed. However, sometimes problems arise. You may notice that your camera is not working as it should. If you are experiencing these problems, here are some tips for repairing your camera.
The first step in repairing your blink camera is to check the battery. It’s important to ensure that your camera is connected to Wi-Fi or a wired network. If it’s not, you may need to replace the batteries. The battery should be replaced when 10% of its overall capacity is depleted.
If the camera is not connected to a Wi-Fi network, you will have a hard time capturing videos. The Blink device may also not be able to detect motion. You can move the camera closer to the Sync Module for improved connectivity. You can also try connecting it to a USB power source.
The Blink camera’s battery compartment is located on the rear of the device. This is indicated by the rubber button in the middle of the battery compartment.
The blink device has other internal features that may be causing the issue. Aside from the battery, a synchronization problem may also be causing your Blink camera to stop working. You can get a solution to this problem by relocating your router or reconnecting the camera to your app.
One of the most important features of a Blink device is the battery. You can test the battery by plugging it into a USB power source. You can also use batteries that are compatible with your camera. You may also need to replace them to resolve your problem.

If you are unsure of how to do this, you can contact Blink customer support for assistance. They can help you with a range of services including a software update.
Check if the Live View is working
Whether you’re using a Blink Mini camera or a Blink HD camera, you’ll need to check if the Live View is working to access the camera’s footage. Using the Blink App, you can view footage from your Blink camera and see if there are any motion alerts. This feature allows you to view your camera’s footage from anywhere.
If you’re experiencing an error message that states “Live View is not supported,” it’s likely that your Internet connection isn’t fast enough. In addition, you’ll need to ensure that your camera’s batteries are working properly.
Blink recommends that you use rechargeable AA Lithium batteries. Alkaline batteries are not a good choice, because they lack the power that Blink cameras need. Also, they deplete too quickly.
A Blink camera’s red LED indicator light will flash 5-6 times when the camera’s batteries need to be replaced. The camera will also show a red light when it detects motion. You can also check the batteries by pressing the camera’s reset button. This button is usually located next to the battery slot on most models.
Resetting the camera may also help you resolve problems with Live View. You’ll need to hold the reset button for about 60 seconds until the red light starts to glow.
Blink cameras have a reset button located near the USB port on the right side of the device. If the camera isn’t connected to the Internet, it will show a solid red light.
You can also use the Home Monitor app to check the signal strength of your device. If you have a weak wireless connection, your camera won’t be able to connect to the Internet. You can also reset the camera and configure it to a new wireless network.
Blink’s customer support says that the most common reasons for Live View failure are low battery and connection issues. They also suggest that you troubleshoot connectivity to resolve these issues.
Resetting the camera will also restore the camera’s factory settings and configuration. However, you should take a backup of your device’s data before resetting it.
