Night Vision Cameras

To enable night vision for your eufy IP & PoE cameras, open the eufy Security app. Go to Camera Settings > Video Settings > Auto Night Vision and toggle it on. Once activated, your night vision security camera, like the Indoor Cam S350, will automatically switch to night vision mode whenever the surrounding light is too low.

If night vision isn't working, first confirm that Auto Night Vision is enabled in the app. Check that the light sensor of your security cameras with night vision isn't obstructed or dirty, and ensure the environment is dark enough. If the IR lights fail to activate, your security camera or NVR security system may require servicing or replacement.

Poor night vision may stem from dirty lenses, poor placement, or weak IR reflection. For instance, the eufy SoloCam S340 delivers crisp 3K clarity, but like other wireless outdoor cameras with night vision, it still requires a clear, unobstructed view to maintain sharp images in low-light environments.

Dark night vision can happen when infrared LEDs are blocked, disabled, or reflecting off glass. Many eufy security cameras with night vision, like the eufy SoloCam E42 2-Cam Kit, work best when mounted away from reflective surfaces and placed in open areas with minimal obstructions to allow IR illumination to function properly.

Yes, eufy offers many advanced night vision security cameras that support color recording, like the eufyCam S3 Pro. With MaxColor Vision™ technology, they capture vibrant, full-color footage even in low-light conditions, making nighttime security far more detailed and reliable.
