Is your Ring Floodlight Cam producing blurry or pixelated footage?

What This Problem Means

Video quality issues are most commonly caused by insufficient Wi-Fi bandwidth at the camera’s location or a dirty lens.

Common Symptoms

  • Footage appears grainy or pixelated
  • Night footage is unusually dark
  • Video has a pink or purple tint

Safe Checks You Can Try

1. Check Wi-Fi Signal Strength

Check Device Health in the Ring app for signal strength. A poor signal forces the Ring Floodlight Cam to reduce resolution automatically. Improve signal with a Ring Chime Pro.

2. Clean the Lens

Use a soft dry lint-free cloth to clean the lens. Outdoor cameras accumulate grime that reduces video quality.

3. Check Video Quality Setting

In Device Settings → Video Settings, confirm video quality is not set to a reduced tier.

4. Address a Pink or Purple Tint

A tint indicates a night vision switching issue. Check the night vision setting in the Ring app and restart the camera.

5. Restart the Camera

Switch off the power at the consumer unit or the floodlight cam power supply for 10 seconds, then switch it back on. Allow two minutes to restart.
