Ring Security Cameras
Red tint on screen
Our Ring floodlight has a red tint when we view it. It started 3 days ago. We have tried to reset it twice and it has not helped at all. Started as a smallsquarevin center of screen and now covers the whole screen.

Hi, not sure if you figured it out but its a simple fix. Get a rubber hammer or something similar and tap the side of the camera. Let me emphasize tap! It may take a few hits but it works! I pulled up the camera feed on my phone so i could see when it went away. Dont know why it works but it does! Good as new!

UI thought “there’s no way this works”. However, I used three fingertips while looking at my camera in live mode. Nothing on the right side worked so I tried the left side and VIOLA!!! The color changed back immediately! Crazy!!

Tapping lightly only partially worked for me. Tapping on the right looking into the lens recovered some 50%. Tapping on the left resulting in it going back. Constantly tapping again on the right got it as far as 70% back but no further. :unamused:

I can't believe it, but the tap on the side fixed mine as well. It took a few taps, and at one point, only part of the image was correct, but I kept tapping, and finally it cleared up!
