To add someone to a Blink Camera, follow the steps below:
1. Connect Your Camera – Ensure that your Blink camera is connected to your Wi-Fi network and is in the right position to capture any motion in the designated area.
2. Install the Blink App – Download and install the Blink App from either the App Store or Google Play Store on your mobile device.
3. Create an Account – If you have not already done so, create an account in the Blink App using your email address to sign up.
4. Add a Sync Module – If you do not have a Sync Module, you will need to purchase one and add it to the Blink system. The Sync Module acts as a hub for all the cameras in your system.
5. Invite the Person – Launch the Blink App and select the camera to which you want to add someone. Click on the “Manage Account” section and select “Manage Users.” From there, you can enter the name and email address of the person you want to add.
6. Grant Access – Once you have invited the person, they will receive an email notifying them of their invitation. They will need to create an account in the Blink App and accept your invitation. Once they have accepted the invitation, you can grant them access to the camera by selecting “Grant Camera Access” in the “Manage Users” section.
7. Set Permissions – You can set permissions for the person you have added by selecting “Manage Access” in the “Manage Users” section. You can choose which features they can access, such as live video feed, recordings, and alerts.
After completing these steps, the person you added will be able to access the camera you assigned them permission to directly from the Blink App. Adding someone to your Blink Camera is an easy process and can be completed within a few minutes.
