    Failed after a couple of months. Constant buffering, disconnects, and just plain being offline most of the time with no known reason. Did the reset wifi option many times but it still stops working after a few hours. Its only 10 feet away from my router so it's not a signal issue.

    These cameras suck, and I bought 4 of these crap cameras. They only record for a few seconds at a time. I bought these thinking I could monitor bad cat behavior, but they stop recording before the behavior starts. Waste of money!

    Blink never informed their customers that they would have to subscribe to a monthly fee to view their camera clips UNTIL NOW! I feel Amazon/Blink are have cheated their customers, they are very unethical and dishonest. Purchase Wyze cameras to avoid additional costs.

    Useless camera with a major flaw.

    Useless camera. Blink camera comes with a major flaw. It does not stream video for more than 30 seconds. I bought this camera to use as a baby camera and the fact I have to keep pushing "Continue" button on the screen defeats the purpose. Should have returned it on time.

      There is a limit to the continuous live viewing on the Blink cameras. Currently, you are able to view up to 5 minutes at a time in 30 second intervals. After 5 minutes you would have to initiate a new live view session. Currently, we do not have news to share regarding continuous live viewing. However, we value your feedback and will forward this information to the appropriate team at Blink.

    I have 10 emails back and forth with Blink. I got Locke out of my original email and had to set the system up on another email. The Blink Mini has a red light on most of the time and does not record. The one thing I do like is that when it does record it will do so through a window.

    These monitors were okay but worked some days better then others. After your month trail you have to get a plan if not you can only tap in to them and they won’t record. The plans are not bad thow

    Basic rip off, cloud subscription will cost you more, otherwise you have no video or picture after trial. Nobody told me that when I purchased in store. Add another $20 a month and you'll have contract with armed security company. As a said, simple cheat
