A:AnswerHere are the Blink System requirements: A non-cellular 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network (name and password) and high speed Internet connection (DSL, Cable, Fiber) with a minimum 2 Mbit/sec upload speed. Unfortunately, due to high latency issues, we do not recommend using Blink with Satellite providers. Please note that Blink is unable to gain internet access on networks that require authentication through a third-party login website.
A:AnswerThe Blink System (including the Blink Mini) does currently require a 2.4ghz WiFi-based Internet connection to operate. Blink is not compatible with wifi networks broadcasting a 5ghz signal.

A:AnswerYou can only have one username/email address and password per account however, you can download our app to as many compatible iOS, Android and Amazon Fire devices as you’d like, so the entire household can receive alerts or check in at home.
When launching the app on additional devices, please use the sign in option to access the account you created on your first Blink connected mobile device. You will not have to go through the setup process again. Please note you will not be able to use Live View from multiple devices at the same time.
A:AnswerHi Bb, yes — Blink Mini cameras can be added to an existing Blink system and managed in the same Blink app as your other Blink devices.
Just add the camera through the app and connect it to your account. Hope this helps!
A:AnswerHello Fabio! The Blink Mini is only compatible with the 2.4GHz band and will not be able to detect a 5GHz signal. I hope this answers your question and I hope you have a great day!
A:AnswerHi Monica, you’ll need the QR code or serial number to add a Blink Mini — there isn’t another way to link it.
If it’s not visible, check the bottom of the camera or the original box. If it’s missing, contact Blink support to help retrieve it or replace the device.
Hope this helps!
A:AnswerHi there, no — Blink Mini only detects motion, not sound.
You can hear audio in live view or recordings, but it won’t send alerts for noise.
Hope this helps!

A:AnswerHi Lights,
You can turn off the status light, but the red night vision light can’t be disabled unless you turn off night vision.
Hope this helps!
A:AnswerHello Donnie, in order to save videos to a separate storage device you would need to add the Blink Sync Module XR to your system. The Sync Module XR allows you to add a 256 Micro SD card for local storage.
Have a great day!
A:AnswerHello
Google Assistant is not natively supported by Blink cameras and would need a 3rd party app to connect. However, Blink does connect seamlessly with Alexa enabled products. I hope this information helps. Have a great day!
A:AnswerHi Mount,
Yes, Blink Mini cameras can be mounted on a wall or ceiling, not just placed on a shelf. The cameras come with a versatile mount that allows for screws, or you can use third-party adhesive mounts to avoid drilling, enabling them to be positioned on walls, in corners, or on ceilings.
I hope this answers your question!
A:AnswerHello Justin,
Yes the Blink Doorbell will chime through the Blink Mini however there is a setting that needs to be changed in the Blink App for this to work. Make sure that both devices are connected to your Wifi and Functioning first, then, from the Blink App;
- Select your Doorbell from your devices
- Navigate to the Doorbell's Settings
- Select "Doorbell and Chime Settings"
- Enable "Use Blink Mini Camera as Chime"
This will get you all set to go. If these steps don't work. In both of your device settings, I would check to make sure their aren't any software updates that need to be done to the devices.
I hope this helps!
