Why Is My Ring Camera Showing Purple Light?

Have you ever felt a weird purple tinge in a Ring Camera stream?

Though abnormal, many people have reported their Ring camera showing purple, which is most often not an indication of any serious problem.

  • Once you find out exactly what is causing the anomaly and how to fix it, your camera can quickly return to functioning normally.
  • Normally, it is the IR filter going awry, forcing some purple color hover dust into the image. 
  • According to the amount of illumination, Ring cameras switch back and forth between day and night modes while using an IR filter.
  • If such an IR filter somehow sticks or fails to switch back to day mode after some period, you might see a very pink or purple hue in the video stream.
  • Rebooting is something to do first and foremost.
  • Using the app or your Ring.com login credentials, you can reboot.
  • Go to your device's settings, choose your camera, and then initiate a restart.
  • In some cases, it will cause a reset of the infrared filter, subsequently solving the purple tint problem.
  • You may have to proceed with a complete reset Ring camera should a reboot not fix the issue.
  • Press and hold the Setup button for 15 to 20 seconds; this button will be either found on the side or on top of the camera.
  • Once this is done, with your Ring app or Ring.com login details, repeat the setup procedure.
  • It could be an issue sometimes with the hardware.
  • Consult a professional if the purple hue remains after a reboot and reset.
  • Your camera might need changing, especially if it is still under warranty.
  • While a purple camera can be annoying, it's usually fairly straightforward to fix.
  • Try rebooting first, then resetting if necessary, and do not hesitate to ask for help if the problem remains.
