Troubleshooting

Camera won't turn on

Ensure the battery is charged. Connect the camera to a power source via USB. If the issue persists, try a different USB cable or power adapter.

Video is choppy or stuttering

Check the speed rating of your Micro SD card. A faster card (Class 10 or U3 recommended) may be required. Ensure the card is formatted correctly using the camera's formatting function.

Cannot connect to WiFi app

Ensure WiFi is enabled on the camera and your smartphone. Restart both the camera and your smartphone. Check your smartphone's WiFi settings and ensure you are connecting to the camera's specific WiFi network. Refer to the app's troubleshooting guide.

Poor video quality, especially at night

Ensure the lenses are clean and free from smudges or debris. Check the camera settings for resolution and quality. The SONY Starvis IMX307 sensor is designed for good low-light performance, but extreme darkness may still impact quality.

Audio recording is not working

Verify that the microphone port is not blocked. Check the camera's settings to ensure audio recording is enabled.
