Can you turn off the blue light on a Blink camera?

Answered by Willie Powers

You can turn off the blue light on a Blink camera. To do this, you will need to use the Blink app on your phone.

1. Start by opening the Blink app on your phone. If you haven’t already, log in to your Blink account.

2. Once you’re logged in, navigate to the Camera Settings. This can usually be found by tapping on the camera icon or by selecting the camera you want to adjust from the home screen.

3. In the Camera Settings, look for an option called “Status LED” or something similar. This is usually located under the “Recording” or “Advanced Settings” section.

4. Tap on the “Status LED” option to change the status of the light. By default, it is usually set to “On” which means the blue LED will be visible while the camera is recording.

5. To turn off the blue light, select the “Off” option. This will disable the LED and it will no longer display the blue light while recording.

It’s worth noting that turning off the blue light may have some implications. While it can be useful for discreet recording, especially in situations where you don’t want the camera to be easily noticeable, it can also impact the camera’s visibility as a deterrent. The blue light serves as a visual indicator that the camera is recording, which can deter potential intruders or unwanted activity.

If you decide to turn off the blue light, make sure to consider the specific needs and requirements of your setup. It’s always a good idea to test the camera’s recording capabilities and visibility after making any changes to ensure it meets your expectations.

The ability to turn off the blue light on a Blink camera provides flexibility and customization options to suit your specific needs.
