Image notifications send you a snapshot image of what’s happening in front of your Blink camera, so you can easily see activity without opening the Blink app. With a quick look at your notification, you can know immediately if you need to open Live View to take a closer look or wait and review your video later. Learn more about how to receive Motion Detection notifications.
To view image notifications, your Early Notification camera setting must be disabled. Learn more about Early Notifications.
Note: Image notifications aren’t available for the Blink Mini 2, Outdoor 4, Wired Floodlight and Video Doorbell. Since the Video Doorbell has Early Notification enabled by default, image notifications cannot be viewed.
If you’re using Local Storage to save clips, image notifications won’t be displayed, as thumbnails aren’t generated. Learn more about using Local Storage.
iOS
When you have Motion Alerts enabled on your iOS device, you’ll see a Motion Detection notification on your Home screen.
Tapping a notification on your Home screen will take you to the Clip List in the Blink app with that saved clip. When you ‘long press’ on a notification, you’ll see a larger snapshot of your detected motion. Image notifications also display when you’re in the Blink app.
