Blink doorbell: Solid blue light

Our drawing: the small status light or the light ring or button, blue, solid (steady).

The doorbell is recording motion or someone is watching its live view.

Applies to: Status light on the Wired Doorbell 2K+, Video Doorbell (2nd Gen) and Battery Doorbell 2K+; button light on the Video Doorbell (1st Gen). What you see: blue, solid (steady), on the small status light or the light ring or button.

What Blink says to do

  1. Blink says you can turn this light off in the app under Device Settings > General Settings > Button LED > Off when Recording.
  2. On doorbells connected to chime wiring you can instead set it to Always On; battery-powered doorbells such as the Battery Doorbell 2K+ do not have that option.
