How to connect Blink Mini to Apple HomeKit

Workaround required

The Blink Mini is an affordable 1080p indoor plug-in Wi-Fi camera with motion detection and two-way audio. It stores clips for free in the cloud via the Blink Subscription Plan or locally on a USB drive with a Sync Module 2. Designed for quick indoor monitoring setups.

The verdict

Blink Mini does not have native support for Apple HomeKit, but you can still integrate it using a bridge or workaround.

How to fix it

Blink Mini is Alexa-only; use HomeBridge with Blink plugin for HomeKit.

Note: This device works best when paired with a compatible hub or bridge.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Get the required bridge hardware — a HomeBridge server is the recommended option for hosting the bridge software. You can find compatible options on Amazon.
