Black and white vision

Hi all , can anyone please help fix my indoor camera view.  Sometimes its colored and most of the time it's in black and white. 

Thanks

Hi @naseerkalsabti ,

It sounds like what's happening is that your camera is staying in Night Vision Mode, which by default it will do automatically whenever there's low light in the room. I would suggest bringing more light into that room (perhaps with a lamp), or moving the camera to a different spot where the light sensor is able to catch more light.

Thank you. This was the issue. When I opened the curtains, the feed was colored.  However, what good is a colored camera if this is the issue? When we are not home, we don’t leave the curtains open (or turn on every light in the house)!

Simplisafe produces inferior products in my experience. I will go with Ring as soon as they offer professional monitoring.
