How to fix Blink Security not working
When Blink Security itself is having trouble, these steps won't bring it back, but they will rule out anything on your side:
Your browser tries to reach blinkforhome.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Reload and restart
Reload the page (Ctrl+F5, or Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac), or fully close the app and open it again.
Try another connection
Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data. If it works on one and not the other, the problem is your network, not Blink Security.
Update the app
Install the latest version from the App Store or Google Play. Old versions can stop connecting after a server-side change.
While Blink Security is down: what to use instead
- Ring app If you already have Ring cameras or a doorbell, open the Ring app to check live view and motion alerts.
- Wyze app When you own a Wyze camera, the Wyze app gives you live video and motion alerts, and that can cover a quick look while the Blink app is down.
- Arlo app Arlo cameras show live view and motion alerts in the Arlo app.
- Echo Show If your Blink camera is linked to Alexa, ask an Echo Show to show its feed when the app will not load.

How we track Blink Security
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Blink Security, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Blink Security, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Blink Security doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
