Not compatible with phone or so they say. My,memory is wasting money on these things. Doing a force stop on the app to see anything.
Just got an email. It will never be compatible with my phone. Maybe they should say what they are compatible with before ppl waste their money
What phone are you using?
Blink does specify system requirements:

Itās why there is a 30 day return policy. No way in hell Blink can confirm it will work with you phone your router, and your ISP. The combination of those 3 items cannot be tested beforehand.

We never emailed you in the first place? I believe youāre confusing us with blink staff. Weāre not.

Some people are just here to ā ā ā ā ā and complain. They donāt ask for help. They donāt respond to didnāt you do your homework/research. Some of them are simply trolls.
I propose a new initial response as do you want help fixing your problem? This will then tell the tale.

I have to agree. I have two cameras, both donāt work. Iām on my third because they sent a new one when the first stopped working. These cameras are designed to fail or they use such cheap components they expect them to fail. If yours breaks or stops working they are happy to send a new one because they are so cheap. If your outside your warranty window then its another Ā£100.
This is a scandal that is going undetected. If everyone that has had a camera stop working (Bear in mind, if this was Apple it would just work. Just work, no messing) responds with Yes you would quickly see how much they are squeezing out of unsuspecting customers.
These cameras are basically ā ā ā ā . Iām an electronic engineer and will be breaking these cameras down to see just what is so off about these cameras. It wouldnt surprise me if they do in fact accually work but send the feed directly to Amazon, hence the strain on battery and components.
Watch this space as I investigate further into this scam.

No problems here. Very pleased for battery powered cameras.

I have 6 cameras, all work great. Funny how that works.
I also spent hours working with placement, angles, settings, etc.

I have 4 cameras and have no problem with any of them. Like Austin, I also spent a lot of time testing out the placement and settings for them. For wireless cameras that donāt require a subscription Iāve been very happy with mine.

In the 3 years Iāve owned Blink Iāve never had a camera or sync module failure. I was even using the indoor cams outside in the upstate NY winters with no problem. Curious to see what āSherlockā will come up with! LOL

Add me to the list of satisfied customers. 7 cameras here now, on 3 sync modules. 13 months in on my first batch of 3 and not a single failure of a sync module or camera yet on any of the 3 originals, or on any of the 4 newer ones that Iāve purchased since. Performs exactly as expected, and as detailed in their literature and FAQs.
Iād be completely satisfied, as opposed to āsatisfiedā, if they would just offer one or two improvements to the app, such as individual camera scheduling, but I knew I wasnāt getting that from the outset, so I canāt really complain.
I also did extensive testing on receipt of my first batch, and knew exactly what to expect before I placed them.
Funny how that works, as Austin said.

which models and how long did you have them , just curious because iv had the XTs for 16 months and other then the batteryās failing there fine outdoors in brutal north east mountainous conditions.
So just bought the new 5 camera XT2 system which have been a little glitchy . Can you help and be more specific, Thanks .

My two XT2s work great. Survived the Texas heat last summer. Originally, I had problem with the range of my WiFi signal which is not Blinkās fault. I got an extender and all good.
If you look back thru the forum, you will see its relatively the same group of individuals that almost always, like clockwork, respond to negative threads with their āpositive blink experiencesā. Though Iām sure there are plenty of customers who have nothing better to do than post clips of the baby birds in their yards learning to fly. Itās just how the capitalist world turns. Nothing you can do about it except not make future purchases with disreputable corporation.
I gave up on nine. Got ring
