[APP][Pro] Blink for Home - Smart security designed for every home

Early Christmas present :christmas_tree: :wrapped_gift: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

New test version 2.1.0:

  • Fixed oAuth authorization (Blink API changes)

I hope this version fixes the auth issue. If you get errors, please leave a note here.
And if it works without issues, leave a comment, too. Perhaps I can release to live version directly without a review that all new users can start at Christmas :crossed_fingers:

FYI:

@soulside @Christophe_GARCIA @Thomas_Fenzl @Robert_Lewis and all users who have subscribed to the thread

It is working! Thank you very much. Warm wishes for a joyful holiday season :slight_smile:

Working for me too! New install of Homey and therefore a brand new install and login for Blink. I’m glad I found this thread and have been waiting patiently for the last couple of days.

Thank you so much!

Btw…Most apps have a forum thread linked in app store details.

It works! Thank you so much for this development! Happy end-of-year holidays! :grinning_face:

It works! Thanks so much and wishing you a very Happy Christmas

App is approved (many thanks to Athom doing this today).

Works fine here too. Big thanks and a Happy Christmas.

Unfortunately, after entering the correct login details, I receive the following message. What could be the cause, since it works for some users with version 2.1.0?

Can you please send me a diagnostics report?

Ronny – Apologies, but the latest updates works fine. Do you still need a report?

This was an answer to @grey.shirt.guy
If everything is working, I don’t need a report.

Hi @RonnyW ! Great work you have done.

I am a new Homey user and have previously used my Blink cameras via Alexa app. In Alexa there is a arm/disarm function for the system. I read the description of your app and noticed arm/disarm is mentioned there.

But when I use your app in Advanced flows, I can only find a card to turn on/off individual cameras instead of a card to arm/disarm the whole system.

Does turn on/off do the arm/disarm function for that particular camera, meaning I should just have a card for each camera to perform on/off to reach the same as with system arm/disarm in Alexa? Or does turn on/off really shutdown the camera?

Is there some specific reason preventing the system arm/disarm in just one card? Perhaps API limitation which Alexa can bypass?

Thanks a million!

Hi,

turning a camera on/off in Homey activates/deactivates motion detection for this camera.

The ‘system’ is represented by the SyncModule device. You can turn it on/off to activate/deactivate the system managed by this SyncModule.

I have a new HomeyPro2026 und now i have problems with the LogIn.
I got the Answer my credentials are wrong, but the Username and the password is correct. Blink send me a SMS with the Log In code, but Homey says the credentials are wrong.

whats the #problem und what can i do?

I restart Homey several times an uninstall the app, bot nothing helps…

same issue

@Jarek_J @susertux

Perhaps Blink changed the API again. I will check it, but I’m busy next weeks. I hope BlinkPY has a solution in the meantime to see what has changed. I’ll comment this thread if there are news.

I’m having the same issue. I enter user ID, it takes it fine, but won’t take the password and I even changed it to make sure, but even though it doesn’t accept it, I get the verification code as though it worked.

Having the same issue right now.
