Troubleshooting Guide
Step-by-step help for the most common problems with Lampsy® and its app. Pick a topic, then open the guide that matches what you see.
Power, setup and Wi-Fi
Guide 1: Lampsy® won’t turn on
The problem: Lampsy® appears unresponsive. You cannot see a status light, hear any sounds, or reach the device in the app. The lamp light being dark does not necessarily mean Lampsy® is switched off.
What to do
- Check that Lampsy®’s power connection is secure.
- Check that the wall socket is switched on.
- Test the socket with another appliance.
- Look for the small status light. Changing red, green, and blue lights mean Lampsy® is turning on.
- If the device remains unresponsive, contact support. If you see repeating purple flashes, include a video of the pattern.

Guide 2: My phone can’t find Lampsy® during Bluetooth setup
The problem: You are trying to set up Lampsy®, but your phone cannot find or connect to it.
What to do
- Turn on Bluetooth on your phone.
- Keep your phone close to Lampsy®.
- Hold Lampsy®’s setup button for about 2 seconds, then release it.
- Check for a flashing blue status light. This means Lampsy® is waiting for a setup connection.
- Return to the setup process in the Lampsy® app. Your Lampsy® device should appear after scanning.
- Select your Lampsy® device and confirm pairing. Some phones ask you to confirm twice; accept both times.
- A steady blue status light means the phone has connected.
- If Lampsy® remains undiscoverable, contact support.
Setup closes after about 10 minutes. Enter setup mode again if the flashing blue light has stopped.

Guide 3: Lampsy® won’t scan my Wi-Fi QR code
The problem: You are showing a Wi-Fi QR code to Lampsy®, but it does not seem to read it or begin connecting.
What to do
- Hold the setup button for about 2 seconds, then release it.
- Check for a flashing blue status light. This means Lampsy® is waiting for a setup connection.
- Show the Wi-Fi setup code to the camera, keeping the whole code visible.
- Hold it steady. Adjust the distance or screen brightness if needed, and avoid light shining directly on the phone screen so that the entire code is readable.
- Listen for a short beep, which means Lampsy® has read the code.
- When the blue light gently brightens and dims, let the connection attempt finish, before showing another code if the connection is unsuccessful.
- If scanning continues to fail, use the app’s Bluetooth setup process or contact support.
The beep confirms that the code was read, not that Wi-Fi connected successfully.

Guide 4: Lampsy® won’t connect to my Wi-Fi
The problem: Lampsy® reads your Wi-Fi details but fails to connect, or setup reports that the connection failed.
What to do
- Check the network name and password carefully.
- Confirm that another device can connect to the same network.
- Enter Lampsy®’s setup mode by holding the setup button for about 2 seconds.
- Check for a flashing blue status light. This means Lampsy® is waiting for a setup connection.
- Submit the Wi-Fi details again.
- Let the connection attempt finish while the blue light gently brightens and dims.
- If correct details repeatedly fail, contact support with the setup message.
A steady green light confirms connection to the Lampsy® service. Do not send your Wi-Fi password to support.

Live video and camera
Guide 16: I can’t see the live video
The problem: The live view is blank, unavailable, or fails to open.
What to do
- Check that Lampsy® is reachable in the app.
- Check for a camera or streaming fault notification.
- Check the Privacy setting in the Camera tab.
- If it is set to Privacy Mode, live video is off. Choose another option if you want live viewing.
- If it is set to On Detection, live video is only available around detected events. Choose Full View to watch at any time, if that matches your preference.
- Close and reopen the live view.
- Contact support if it still fails.
Note that recording and live streaming have separate settings, so recording might be enabled and streaming disabled, and vice versa.

Guide 19: The picture is blurry
The problem: The live picture is visible, but the area you want to see is out of focus.
What to do
- Check that the camera’s view is unobstructed.
- In the Camera tab, open Settings and, under Focus Settings, choose Automatic, or choose Manual and adjust the focus yourself.
- Reducing the zoom can also improve the picture.
- If you use Saved presets, also under Settings, check whether applying one changes the focus.
- If the picture remains blurry, send support a screenshot.
If manual focus is used, make one adjustment at a time and check the result.
Related guides: The picture is too zoomed in/out or shows the wrong area; I can’t see the live video
Guide 20: The picture is too zoomed in/out or shows the wrong area
The problem: The camera picture cuts off the area you want to monitor or uses an unexpected saved preset.
What to do
- In the Camera tab, open Controls and zoom in or out as needed.
- Use the direction controls in Controls until the area you want is visible.
- Check whether a saved preset, under Settings in the Camera tab, caused the change.
- Check the picture before saving a new preset.
- Contact support if adjustments are unavailable or do not take effect.
Setup temporarily changes the camera view to help read QR codes, and should return to the previous view by itself afterwards. If you move Lampsy®, you may need to adjust your saved presets for its new position.

Guide 21: The picture is too dark at night
The problem: The camera works in daylight, but the picture becomes too dark to see clearly at night.
What to do
- Check that the camera and night illumination area are unobstructed.
- Finish or leave setup mode if active.
- Allow the automatic night illumination time to respond after the room becomes dark.
- Check for a night-monitoring fault notification.
- If the picture stays dark, contact support with a screenshot and describe the room lighting.
Night illumination is automatic, but might require a few seconds under dark conditions to switch on.
Related guides: Lampsy® says night monitoring may be disabled; Lampsy® says night mode and device controls may be disabled
Guide 22: Lampsy® says there’s a camera issue and monitoring is disabled
The problem: A notification reports a camera issue and says monitoring is disabled. This can happen even if Lampsy® remains connected.
What to do
- Read the latest notification.
- If recovery is underway, keep Lampsy® powered while it makes its recovery attempts, even if it seems to be shutting down.
- If the message asks you to contact support, send support the notification.
- After a recovery message, check whether live video is available.
- Report any continuing camera problem.
Monitoring is unavailable while the message says it is disabled, meaning the device will not be able to stream video, detect general motion or abnormal movement, or record videos. Changing privacy settings does not repair this fault.
Related guides: I can’t see the live video; Lampsy® says it’s back to normal, but I’m still having problems
Guide 23: Lampsy® says night monitoring may be disabled
The problem: A notification reports a problem affecting night monitoring. The daytime picture may still look normal.
What to do
- Contact support with the notification.
- Remove any obstruction covering the camera or night illumination area.
- Keep Lampsy® powered while it checks for recovery.
- After a recovery message, check the picture in the same dark-room conditions.
- Tell support if the picture remains dark.
A visible daytime picture does not confirm that night illumination has recovered. Night illumination is automatic, but might require a few seconds under dark conditions to switch on.

Movement alerts
Guide 24: I’m not receiving motion notifications
The problem: You expect general movement notifications, but none arrive.
What to do
- Check that Lampsy® is connected and has no camera or detection fault.
- Check that General motion alerts are on; they are off by default.
- Check that the current time falls within the Active hours (between Starts and Ends).
- Finish or leave setup mode, which temporarily pauses movement analysis.
- Check the Sensitivity. At a lower sensitivity, it takes larger movements to trigger a notification.
- Contact support if notifications remain missing, including an example time and your settings.
General motion sensitivity does not change abnormal movement detection. The default configuration looks for sustained movement and spaces general motion notifications 10 minutes apart. So after a notification, no other general motion notification is sent for 10 minutes, even if movement is detected.
Related guides: Monitoring happens at the wrong time; Lampsy® says abnormal and general movement detection may be disabled
Guide 25: I’m receiving too many motion notifications
The problem: General movement notifications arrive for activity outside the area or hours you want to monitor.
What to do
- Check that the live camera view covers the area you want to monitor.
- Adjust the framing if needed.
- Lower the Sensitivity in General motion alerts if it seems too high.
- Set the Active hours to the times you want to be notified.
- Observe the result before adjusting again.
- Contact support if notifications remain excessive.
General motion sensitivity does not change abnormal movement detection. The default configuration looks for sustained movement and spaces general motion notifications 10 minutes apart. So after a notification, no other general motion notification is sent for 10 minutes, even if movement is detected.
Related guides: The picture is too zoomed in/out or shows the wrong area; Monitoring happens at the wrong time
Guide 26: Lampsy® sounded an alert, but nothing has appeared in the app
The problem: You heard Lampsy® make a sound, but cannot find a matching notification or event.
What to do
- Note the time and sound pattern.
- Check whether it happened during setup, a button press, or shutdown. These actions also produce sounds.
- Check Lampsy®’s connection and fault notifications.
- Reopen the relevant device or event screen.
- If you believe it was an abnormal movement alarm and no event appears, contact support with the time.
A device sound alone does not confirm delivery of a phone notification. If Lampsy® detects abnormal movement while it has a connection problem, it may sound a beep pattern instead, because it cannot send a phone notification or an automated emergency call at that moment. The event, and its video if recording is on, may then only appear later in the Diary tab, once the connection is restored.

Guide 27: Lampsy® says abnormal movement alerts are disabled
The problem: You received a notification saying abnormal movement detection has an issue and alerts are disabled.
What to do
- Leave Lampsy® powered if it is attempting recovery, even if it seems to be shutting down.
- Check for a follow-up notification.
- If support is requested, send the notification to support.
- After recovery, check that the app no longer reports the problem.
- Report any continuing disabled-alert message.
Abnormal movement alerts are unavailable while this fault is active. General motion detection may still work, but changing its settings won’t resolve the issue, and working live video does not confirm that detection has recovered.
Related guides: Lampsy® says abnormal and general movement detection may be disabled; Lampsy® says it’s back to normal, but I’m still having problems
Guide 28: Lampsy® says abnormal and general movement detection may be disabled
The problem: A notification says both movement-detection features may be affected. Live video may still work.
What to do
- Read whether recovery is underway or support is requested.
- Keep Lampsy® powered during recovery, even if it seems to be shutting down.
- If requested, contact support with the notification and its time.
- After recovery, check that the app no longer reports the detection fault.
- Tell support if the problem persists.

Recordings
Guide 29: An event has no video recording
The problem: An event appears in the app, but there is no accompanying video clip.
What to do
- Check whether recording was enabled when the event happened.
- Check for camera, recording, storage, or streaming error notifications from around that time.
- Note whether Lampsy® lost power during the event.
- Note whether Lampsy® has recorded other events during that day and how many.
- If it was offline, restore its connection and check again later.
- If the clip remains missing, contact support with the event time.
Switching recording on afterwards cannot recreate footage from when it was off.
Lampsy® also limits the number of abnormal movement recordings per day. If there were repeated events on the same day, later events may have no video because the limit was reached. To record events again that day, delete recordings from the same day if you can, or wait for the limit to reset the next day.
Related guides: My recordings are delayed or missing; Lampsy® says video recording is disabled
Guide 30: My recordings are delayed or missing
The problem: Expected clips have not appeared, or recordings arrive much later than their events.
What to do
- Check Lampsy®’s internet connection and look for a steady green status light.
- Leave it powered and connected so pending video uploads can be retried.
- Check for recording or storage fault notifications.
- Reopen the recording list after connectivity returns.
- Contact support with the event times if clips remain missing.
The time it takes to upload a video recording varies depending on the quality of Lampsy®’s Wi-Fi connection. Some interrupted recordings may be incomplete or unusable.
Lampsy® also limits the number of abnormal movement recordings per day. If there were repeated events on the same day, later events may have no video because the limit was reached. To record events again that day, delete recordings from the same day if you can, or wait for the limit to reset the next day.
Related guides: Lampsy® appears offline even though my Wi-Fi is working; An event has no video recording
Guide 31: Lampsy® says video recording is disabled
The problem: A notification says Lampsy® cannot record video. Events during the fault may have no clips.
What to do
- Contact support as requested.
- Include the exact notification and when it appeared.
- Check Lampsy®’s internet connection, since pending uploads can contribute to in-device storage pressure.
- Keep Lampsy® powered for recovery checks, even if it seems to be shutting down.
- After recovery, confirm that recording remains enabled in your settings.
Do not reset Lampsy® or delete app recordings as a remedy unless support directs you.
Related guides: My recordings are delayed or missing; Contacting Lampsy® support: what information to provide
Guide 32: Lampsy® says video recording may be compromised
The problem: Lampsy® reports difficulty saving video. Recordings may be missing, incomplete, or cut short.
What to do
- Contact support with the notification.
- Note the times of affected recordings.
- Keep Lampsy® powered while it checks for recovery, even if it seems to be shutting down.
- After a recovery message, check subsequent recordings.
- Update support if the problem continues.
Changing focus, brightness, or live-view settings does not resolve a problem saving footage. This issue is more related to in-device storage issues, which could potentially affect other device features.
Related guides: Lampsy® says video recording is disabled; Lampsy® says it’s back to normal, but I’m still having problems
Guide 33: Lampsy® says video streaming and recording may be disabled
The problem: A notification says the device’s video streaming and recording functions may be affected.
What to do
- Leave Lampsy® powered if it is attempting recovery, even if it seems to be shutting down.
- Avoid repeatedly opening live video during that attempt.
- Contact support if requested by the notification.
- After recovery, reopen live video.
- Check subsequent recordings and report any continuing failure.
Recovery does not guarantee that footage missed during the fault can be recovered.

Review your Night
Guide 34: My night review hasn’t appeared
The problem: You expected a night review, but the completed night is missing from the app.
What to do
- Check that Review your Night is on in Night Review Settings; it is off by default.
- Check its hours in Night Review Settings.
- Confirm that your account has access to the feature, contacting support if unclear.
- Allow the scheduled session to finish.
- Check connectivity and any camera or detection faults.
- Contact support if the completed review remains missing after the connection returns.
Keep Lampsy® connected when possible. Older review data can be removed from in-device storage when a new session starts, if it was never possible to send it before.
Related guides: My night review has gaps or ends early; Monitoring happens at the wrong time
Guide 35: My night review has gaps or ends early
The problem: A night review is available, but some periods are missing or monitoring stopped unexpectedly.
What to do
- Check whether Lampsy® lost power or restarted.
- Check for camera or detection faults at the gap times.
- Check whether Review your Night was switched off during the session.
- Record the unexplained gap times.
- Contact support with those details.
In the Night Review graph, unobserved time is shown as a gap rather than as no movement. Switching recording off stops video clips from being created, but does not by itself disable the entire night-review feature (the motion data shown in the graph will continue to be generated if Lampsy® remains powered).
Related guides: My night review hasn’t appeared; Lampsy® keeps restarting or doesn’t recover after a power cut
Guide 36: Monitoring happens at the wrong time
The problem: General motion notifications or night review start or stop at times that do not match your selected hours.
What to do
- Check the hours for each feature separately: Active hours for general motion alerts, and the hours in Night Review Settings.
- Confirm your current location and local time zone.
- Check Time zone under Device Information in the Device tab.
- Note the selected hours and actual local start or stop times.
- Contact support if they do not match, including any recent travel or seasonal clock change.
Avoid repeatedly shifting the schedule to compensate before the cause is understood.
Related guides: My changes to night-review hours haven’t taken effect; I’m not receiving motion notifications
Guide 37: My changes to night-review hours haven’t taken effect
The problem: You changed the review hours, but the current night continues using the previous schedule.
What to do
- Check that the app shows your new hours.
- Leave them in place for the next session.
- If you want to stop review work immediately, switch it off in Night Review Settings.
- Avoid repeatedly switching it off and on to create another session.
- If the next session still uses unexpected hours, contact support with both schedules.
Once a session starts, its hours remain fixed. Schedule changes apply to the next session.

Restarts, updates and support
Guide 38: Lampsy® says some features may be disabled
The problem: A general device notification says some features may be unavailable, without naming one specific feature.
What to do
- Read whether recovery is underway or support is requested.
- Leave Lampsy® powered during recovery, even if it seems to be shutting down.
- Close live viewing while it recovers.
- Note which features are unavailable.
- Contact support if requested or if the problem continues.
Lampsy® may temporarily pause live viewing or uploads during recovery. The message does not necessarily mean every feature has stopped.
Related guides: The video freezes, stutters, or keeps stopping; Lampsy® says it’s back to normal, but I’m still having problems
Guide 39: Lampsy® keeps restarting or doesn’t recover after a power cut
The problem: Lampsy® repeatedly shows its startup lights or fails to return to normal operation after losing power.
What to do
- Check that the power connection is secure and the socket works reliably.
- Observe the startup light pattern.
- If startup completes, check connectivity and fault notifications.
- If startup keeps repeating, record a short video.
- Contact support, including any purple flash pattern.
Some updates and recovery attempts restart Lampsy® automatically. Repeated startup without returning to normal needs investigation.
Avoid repeatedly interrupting power during startup.

Guide 40: A software update seems stuck or Lampsy® hasn’t come back online
The problem: An update has not visibly finished, or Lampsy® remains unavailable after an update restart.
What to do
- Keep Lampsy® connected to power and the internet.
- Check any update status or failure message in the app.
- Allow for a restart during the update.
- Check whether the status light returns to steady green.
- If failure is reported or Lampsy® remains unavailable, contact support with the last status and its time.
Update duration varies. Do not interrupt power or perform a factory reset to force completion. Powering off or rebooting a Lampsy® during an update might cause that update to fail.

Guide 42: When to reset Lampsy® and what the reset changes
The problem: You are considering a factory reset and need to understand its effect before proceeding.
What to do
- Confirm with support that a reset is appropriate, or use Factory reset this Lampsy® Device in the Device tab of the app.
- Note the settings you want to restore.
- Have your Wi-Fi name and password ready.
- Use the available reset option or follow support’s instructions.
- After the restart, reconnect Lampsy® and review its settings.
A reset restores the default settings and removes saved Wi-Fi details. General motion alerts, Review your Night and other features return to their default, which is off.
A reset is not the way to erase recordings or remove account ownership.

Guide 45: Lampsy® says my phone may not be secure
The problem: The app shows a warning titled This phone may not be secure. It found that the phone was rooted (Android) or jailbroken (iPhone), or that it has software that can change how other apps work, such as Xposed or Frida.
What to do
- Read the warning. It doesn’t block anything: abnormal movement alerts, live video and the Diary keep working.
- Tap Learn more to read what the warning means, or Continue to close it.
- For the best protection, use Lampsy® on a phone that hasn’t been modified. If the warning is about software that changes how other apps work, remove that software or use Lampsy® on another phone.
- If you didn’t modify the phone, or think the warning is a mistake, email support@lampsyhealth.com with the phone’s model and system version.
The warning appears once. It appears again only if Lampsy® finds something different on the same phone, for example software that changes how other apps work.
