Hello Santo, thank you for your question. No, a Blink subscription is not required to use the Video Doorbell, as you can still get live view and motion alerts. However, the Sync Module Core included in the kit does not offer local storage, meaning you will need a Blink Subscription Plan (like the Plus Plan or Basic Plan) to record and save video clips. To avoid a subscription, you would need to use a Sync Module 2 with a USB flash drive or a Sync Module XR with a microSD card, which are sold separately. I hope that helps, have a great day!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There is a subscription for our cloud storage, but customers are not required to use it. Another storage option is local storage, activated by plugging a USB flash drive into a Sync Module 2 (or a Micro SD card into a Sync Module XR). Local storage has no recurring fee to use the feature. Either of these storage options will let you view clips remotely from your phone. Without a storage system for your clips your system will be able to detect motion, notify you of the motion, and live view.
