Bad News Update [Easy Blink Fix] | Missing Video Clips

  • Опубліковано 15 сер 2024
  • The Blink camera system is great. However, when we experience glitches in the Blink app, it becomes quite painful and problematic. App updates offer new features that can often come with new bugs. The good news is it’s fixable with a few clicks of a button. This video will be very helpful for all Blink camera system owners.
    Today we’ll talk about how to recover loss or missing recent video footage, activity and privacy zones, and a mini weather station in your pocket. This is going to be so much fun!

    How are you, always watching your videos.
    Recently my notification don't show up on my phone, only until I open the Blink App and 25 maybe more notifications fall at once..
    It started in the beginning of March 2024 and now I have to open the app, but a bunch of captures show at once.
    Is there something that Blink team did or anything.
    I have not touched anything on settings.. Thank you in advance

Since the latest update, I am not getting Notifications to my iPad…from my home or my church (important, since it is in a pretty secluded area). I am - mostly - still getting Notifications to my IPhone, but the tone has changed and sometimes I don’t hear it. Frustrating! Is Amazon/Blink working on these glitches??

      You are not the first person to report this issue. There is definitely a compatability concern with the iPad. But try this fix:

I use a fire tablet with android 7.3 and it doesn't work properly anymore. The only way I can check her cameras is to sign out of my account on my phone and sign in to her account. I can only be signed in and receive notifications for one account at a time. And I also don't get notifications on the fire tablet anymore until I open the app. Still can't see clips, either. Blink had a good system, easy for my elderly mother to learn and now they've messed up the whole thing.

    This is literally the worst piece of worthless crrp I have ever bought.
    Probably the most obvious thing that shows that the developers never even tested their device in real world usage, is nowhere on it is written the words "doorbell"... nobody knows it's a doorbell... and the screws included to install it... literally a 2 cent item... aren't self tapping, meaning you're more likely to stab the screwdriver through your fingers trying to install it than actually ever get it installed.
    It does not have the range to be installed out by your driveway gate. More often than not, you're going to be recording tons of useless footage of yourself, and nobody else.
    As soon as you see thier plan break down you realize, yeah, you got bamboozled, this thing is grrbage.
    Just get a regular dwmb doorbell, you'll be much happier with a doorbell that works forever like a doorbell should.

    PLEASE HELP!!!
    I am really frustrated with this update. Several annoyances!!
    I'm hoping you can tell me how to fix this one thing that is upsetting me more than anything else...
    It used to be that when you were watching a video and hit the download button that there would be a notification that popped up to let you know that it IS, in fact, being downloaded. This is very helpful because many times even though I hit the download button, nothing happens, for whatever reason, maybe my finger didn't hit it right or it just didn't register or whatever. But ever since the update, there is absolutely no notification whatsoever, absolutely nothing to tell you that your clip IS in fact being downloaded.
    Which leads me to the second annoyance...
    It used to be that if I left the blink app to do something different on my phone, without closing out the app, I would always come back to the same place that I left off. But now, if I leave to do something else, even while keeping the app open, every time I come back it refreshes and brings me back to the beginning.
    Here is why these two annoyances are especially affecting me...
    My main purpose in using the whole blink system is to film The Wildlife around my yard. I am preparing to start a UA-cam channel based on all of the wildlife action that happens in my yard. Therfore, I am always spending time going through my videos and downloading the ones that I want to keep. This is always quite a lot of videos. I need to be able to go down my videos, hitting the download button over and over again and I need to be reassured that they ARE in fact downloading, but now there is no way to know!!!!! NO NOTIFICATION!! WHY??????!!!
    I often switch over to my gallery just to check to make sure that all of the videos are in fact downloading but sometimes I am very behind in doing this and downloading videos that are still from 3 days ago. But now every time I come back to the app, it brings me back to the top and and I have to sit there and scroll forever to get back to the day I left off on. I have 16 blink cameras !!!!!! TONS of videos to go through!!
    I don't understand what the point would be to change these 2 things!
    There are other annoyances, such as the fact that each clip does not have the "day" on it anymore, which really helped me to know where I was before. Now, the only place that the day is listed is at the top of that days clips.
    These changes have made it almost impossible for me to do what I'm doing.
    And I tested just to make sure... I went down my videos and hit 32 videos in a row that I wanted to download... I then went to check in my gallery and only 29 of them had actually downloaded!!! This is extremely frustrating!!! I can't go back and check to see if each video has downloaded after I have pressed the download button. That would be insane and impossible especially with the fact that it refreshes every time i go off the page.
    Please help me😭😭😭

      Wow! I'm so sorry to hear about your problem. That sounds extremely frustrating. I think there maybe a fix.
      Try using the share button instead of the download button. It's on the left side of the download button. Then you can share it to an external drive like Google Doc, Dropbox, One Drive, or even email it to yourself. This may allow for an even better storage system. I'll also try to record another video on this topic.

      Why did they make these pointless changes 😩
      And it would be different if the download button had haptic feedback, but it doesn't. If it did I would at least know that it worked.
      And while I'm at it, here is another problem after the update that is extremely annoying...
      No longer can you press and hold down Clips to select. I used to delete several Clips at once, not wanting to "delete all", but only delete select videos.
