Great difficulty setting up. Spent a lot of time on phone with tech support for Blink...on 2 different phone calls....AND even tech support for my brand new eero mesh system......eero tech support even tried to help me install the Blink cameras. Bottom line...never could get operational so took them back and purchased Ring security cameras. They installed easily and were operational in less than the time of one phone call to Blink support!

It has made me much safer in my home, and when I leave my house I am able to arm it.

Hi Aleah,
Amazon takes security and the integrity of our devices seriously. Hacking locally on a Blink Camera can be due to a person with your credentials in range of the camera or your Wi-Fi's access being a vulnerability. Here are some steps to take to protect yourself: -Ensure your camera's firmware is up-to-date: Amazon releases updates to address security vulnerabilities. -Use strong and unique passwords for your Blink account and Wi-Fi network: Avoid simple or reused passwords and keep track of those you share with. -Enable multi-factor authentication: This provides an extra layer of security when logging into your account. -Secure your home network: Ensure your Wi-Fi network is password protected and consider using a strong encryption protocol like WPA2.
Be cautious about sharing your account information: Only share your Blink account details with trusted individuals. If you have further questions, please call us!
Blink customer support can be reached at 1-833-392-5465.
Hope that helps!

I have much better security cams that offer more features. Quality isn’t that great in my opinion.

I normally don't make poor reviews, but I am not happy with this camera, and I only paid $10 for it because it was an add-on when I bought my Echo Show 8. I guess it is worth the $10 for me to check in on my cat occasionally, but I see if is $34 now, and I wouldn't pay that. It says I am signed up for a free 30-day trial for the Premium recording service, but I don't see what is "Premium" about their recording. I bought a $35 camera from Wyze, and I pay $15-20 a year for Premium service. The Wyze recording videos are clear, the notifications are great, barely any glitches, you can easily submit a feedback if the software mis-identified an item. I know this is weird, but I would not recommend the Blink camera, but I would recommend a Wyze camera. I have yet to try Ring cameras or any other brand.

I thought there was a continuous recording setting but there isn’t :/ I’d return and buy a different one if I could.

Hello Jake! Thank you so much for taking the time to provide a review of your Blink Mini. At this time, we do not offer a continuous recording option to keep the costs of the products as affordable as possible for our customers. We do constantly work to improve upon our lineup in software updates and new products through valued feedback just like yours though. Thank you again for your time and I do hope you have a terrific day!

Delay in recording

This thing has a delay, I, and my maintenance men have entered my apartment and it was not caught. I have also disabled the light on the camera so it doesn't catch attention, the light is on. I believe it goes off once recording starts. When finances allow, changing to a different system.

The feature I wanted most doesn’t work. It’s only partially effective for my needs.
