Does the video show in color or just black and white? null

Hi luckyman! This video displays in color during the day, but when recording or viewing in night vision mode, the video will appear in black and white. Hope this helps, have a great day!

Blink devices record in full color when there is sufficient ambient lighting. At night when there is not sufficient lighting, the IR beam will activate which is what allows it to record in black and white. This IR beam can be switched to ON (image will remain black and white even during the day), OFF (in the dark the IR beam will not activate, so there will be a pitch black image) or the recommended AUTO (the camera will enable/disable it on its own depending on lighting conditions). https://support.blinkforhome.com/en_US/camera-settings/how-do-i-configure-my-camera-to-capture-video-in-low-light
