Works great. Alexa integration easy, and also works with no issues. Some features locked behind subscription, but nothing necessary. For anyone with the Blink pile Module 2 set. Please read the following: If you are following the installation steps and something seems not to work correctly, just restart your router and/or the module 2. You also may need to just wait a few hours. My Blink took a full day after installation to start saving to the flash drive and displaying my locally saved videos in the app. I took no steps in the day between, it just corrected itself. So remember give it time, and reset the module when in doubt.

I recently installed the Blink Camera Doorbell, and I am absolutely thrilled with its performance! It was incredibly easy to set up — the step-by-step instructions were clear, and within minutes, I had it up and running. The video quality is fantastic, with crisp, clear HD resolution that allows me to see who's at the door in great detail, even at night thanks to the infrared night vision. The two-way audio feature is a great addition. I can speak to visitors (or delivery drivers) through the app, which is super convenient when I’m not home. I also love the motion detection feature — it sends alerts right to my phone when someone approaches the door, which makes me feel much more secure. Another bonus is the Blink app itself. It’s user-friendly and easy to navigate, allowing me to customize the settings and monitor my doorbell’s activity with ease. The battery life is impressive, and I haven’t had to worry about frequent charging, which is a huge plus. The design of the doorbell is sleek and modern, fitting perfectly with my home’s exterior. It also integrates seamlessly with my other Blink cameras, creating a complete home security system that’s both affordable and effective.

Works EXTREMELY well, as I expected! I've been a user of Blink Cameras for several years now, so it only made sense to eventually adapt and hook up a doorbell camera. Easily synced with my current Blink outdoor system/hub with no issues. The "view size" obtained by the doorbell camera is extremely wide, covering my entire porch, walkway, and the street in front of the house. VERY high quality picture and easily works with the Blink App to be monitored and customize the settings of your entire camera system. The Blink App has incredible features, such as the ability to block out grid squares that you don't need to be alerted on, so it won't false alert for things such as passing vehicles on the road. By blocking out the entire street beyond your sidewalk/yard, the system will not alert you until someone crosses the invisible grid line you've created around your home. BEST FEATURE AVAILABLE! The built-in microphone is VERY HIGH quality, and can be adjusted easily through the app as well. The doorbell sound quality is top notch and the phone connection when ringing is a nice standard tone that isn't alerting or annoying. If I had one request to adjust the design & features, I would LOVE to have an additional doorbell hub (OTHER THAN AN INDOOR CAMERA!) on the inside to hear the doorbell throughout the house! I, personally, don't care to monitor the interior of my home or the people inside of it, so indoor cameras are not something I am willing to take on to extend the doorbell alert to anywhere but my smartphone. Overall, it's a top notch security camera (and doorbell), and if you're familiar with the Blink operating system or currently use a Blink camera at your home, then the Blink Doorbell is an easy addition to the security of your home.

Actually the temporary cloud you get when you first turn it on is not bad. The ongoing fees if you want to keep it are above average. You can DIY it by using a synch module - which you really have to have anyway, a usb power block, a usb cord and a usb drive. All of this clips into a cheesy holder and the whole thing plugs into a socket. Elegant design it is not. It occupies about 6 inches high by 4 wide and 4 deep of wall space. A strong cockroach can knock it out of the socket. But, it does store your clips at home and you can pull the drive and send it to whatever cloud you have via laptop or desktop. The video bell is easy to install with 2 screws. Setup is just shoot a pic of the QR, and give it a name. It will not make any notification inside! Buy ( are you getting the idea blink is a kluge ? ) one from many retailers or use Alexa ( guess what kids you must buy this too) , for which there is a skill and multiple chime sounds. [ or hardwire to your old school doorbell chime I may do this when it stops snowing. Wait, I live in FL, no snow, I am never going to do this]. The picture is fine although 1k rather than the latest 2k. If you wait a bit you can see it on your phone, though I find Alexa faster. There was supposed to be a one button push for iphone and android notification so you do not have to unlock phone, start app and click on view. I have not found it yet. Batteries. Yes you need them and they are why I bought this ( already having a blink setup). My old doorbell non blink cams use 18650 which need charging every 3 months or so and die between 2-3 years & require the most expensive $20 a pair 18650s. And I was not about to install doorbell transformer, wire and chimes which allow running on 12-26 volts AC but this is an option. My other blinks have run since 2021 without the bother of recharge on AA lithiums as does this. The AAs cost $20 a pair. I am happy. The voice com for you and visitor is clear, nightime view ok, you will recognize your Mom. Motion detection works well. Hey Amazon, Alexa, Blink we all know you are the same corp. - make the synch module a neat desktop saucer shape thing with cord and plug or even cord and power block. That wall wart thing is nasty. Guess what ? You can even add micro usb storage. Guess what what? Put the $%*& thing inside next gen echo view). One star off because Prime delivery guy would not install it. ( actually guys thanks for walking up that 2 story ramp to house every time I buy something). Update: Customer service. Wanted to have doorbell image come up automatically on bell push. Found a couple of u tubes on how to implement but due to poor eysight and worse hearing could not implement. Tried cust support. Asked me to allow them access to setup to help arrange. Did so, then got new rep telling me She, was taking over. Well 17 emails back and forth it ( it had to have been an IT bot calling itself Jen, paid no attention to anything I said) blew me off saying it could not be done but what a great idea would let the IT guys know. Right. See google for proof it can be done. Zero for you Jen and blink cust svc. Update: blink vust service emailed again and asked for third time what I wanted. Repeated whole thing and refered them to 3 videos showing what they said could not be done, could be done. They responded by sending me links on how to set up alexa. As I have bern using alexa for 3 years this was of course useless, as apparently is blink support.
