How to Avoid Losing Email Alerts from Reolink Cameras for the Gmail Accounts If Google No longer Supports Less Secure Sign-In From May 30th
Hi guys,
Many of you may receive an email from Google that you may lose access to Apps that are using less secure sign-in technology on May 30.
"To help keep your account secure, starting May 30, 2022, Google will no longer support the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password."
Some users may be confused. “Does it mean that I can no longer receive the email alerts using the Gmail from the Reolink devices? Should I change to another email?”
Don’t worry. You can still use Gmail to receive alerts from the Reolink devices. But you need to use the APP password generated by Gmail. Here is the how-to guide.
1. Enable two-step verification in Gmail
The APP password will only be available for the account that enables the two-step verification. You can follow the guide in the Google support center to enable it, https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en.
2. Generate the App password for Reolink APP
You can have the step-by-step guide in this article,
https://support.reolink.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039461654-How-to-Generate-an-APP-Password-in-Gmail-Email-Account.
3. Copy the APP password and input it as the email password in Reolink APP/Client.
Using app passwords is a more secure way, no matter for your mailbox or Reolink device. After you successfully change your email password to the app password, you can still receive email alerts from your Reolink device normally. (If you find the email error in the Reolink APP, you can use the APP password to try.)
Please let me know if you have any questions. -

New Firmware for GO PT Plus/GO Plus: AI Detection Zone, Object Size, Pre-Alarm and more
Hi, GO PT Plus/GO Plus users,
Now we have a new firmware for the GO PT Plus/GO Plus. We optimize the AI detection of the camera like AI Detection Zone, Object Size, Pre-Alarm and more.
GO PT Plus: v3.0.0.942_22041233
GO PT Plus: v3.0.0.942_22041233
If you would like to upgrade the camera, please write down your camera information in this form, https://bit.ly/3nqhAy9.
Note: Please copy the device info directly from your APP/Client.
We will push the new firmware to your App within 2 weeks. (Please remember to enable the auto-upgrade in your APP. Device info>>Upgrade device>>Auto-upgrade)
Changelog:
1. Add AI-related Functions
Please find the settings in Settings>>Detection alarm. These new AI functions will help you better filter false alerts.
--Detection Zone
You can create a zone which you don’t want to receive the alerts from. The zone can be set for person/vehicle/any motions separately. The area is composed of multiple small grids. You can draw in any area. To avoid false alerts within the motion zone, we recommend that you can draw more space for the motion zone. Just as the picture shows.
--Object Size
This setting is to filter the detection object by size. To set the maximum size and minimum size of the detection object, it can help filter some alerts like the rain/snow/insects.
--AI Sensitivity
The default sensitivity value (60) is the recommended value. You can also adjust the value according to your environment.
--Static Filtering Strategy
This can help to reduce false alarms caused by static objects like stationary vehicles.
Our algorithm will analyze the motion by frame. But there are tiny changes between consecutive frames in a "seem-to-be-static" video due to sunlight or other reasons. Accordingly, sometimes the box of the car is changing, even though the car doesn't move. Our algorithm can recognize this kind of situation and filter it out.
2. Add Other Functions:
--Pre-alarm Feature
The GO Plus/GO PT Plus detects the person/vehicle using the PIR+AI algorithm. After the PIR detects the motion, our camera needs short time to decide whether there is a person/vehicle or not. So the alarm may delay this process.
If you enable the pre-alarm, the camera will have a small sound (smaller than the normal alert sound) before the normal alarm, which can also have deterrent effect.
If the camera finds that the motion is person/vehicle motions, the siren will be set off. If not, the pre-alarm sounds 3s and done. You can choose to enable it or not according to your need.
--Advanced Image Configuration (Available on Client Only)
You can find the settings on Display>>Advanced. These are the parameters that you
can adjust.
-Brightness
-Contrast
-Saturation
-Sharpness
Brightness & Shadows (manual/auto)
-Color Day mode
-Color Night Mode
-Black and White
--Voice in five languages
We change the “ding-ding” sound to the voice prompt for the initial set-up. The new version will include five languages including English, German, Italy, French, and Spain.
Note: These new functions will be available in the latest software.
Client v8.7.3: https://bit.ly/39WRGPI
APP v4.30: Download it in the google store/Apple store

#Discover Useful APP Features: Scene Mode, Notification sound, Hardware Decoding and so on
Hi everyone!
Today I would like to share tips about some useful features in the APP. You can see below to find if there are features that you haven’t tried or understood enough.
1. Scene Mode
Using the scene mode, you can design different scenes to control the alarms and record buttons of all the cameras. You can set push, record, audio alarm and email notification in the scene mode.
To set up the scene mode like home/away modes, it can be convenient for one situation where you don’t want to receive the notifications at home but need to receive them when away. You don’t have to enable/disable the notification for all the cameras one by one.
How to set up1. Slip the Devices interface down and find the Scene Mode configuration entrance.
2. Fill in the scene name, select a scene icon, and choose the alarm options for different NVR/cameras. Save the settings and the scene will be created.
3. Tap the created scene button to activate the selected cameras. You can add more modes you like or edit/delete the created mode
2. Hardware Decoding(Only available on Android)Our APP uses Hardware decoding and software decoding to decode the video (display the video on the mobile phone/computer).
What are the hardware decoding and software decoding?
Hardware decoding is to use the mobile phone/computer's own decoding chip for analysis. This will decode faster, consume less CPU, and generate less heat. However, because the decoding is provided by the hardware, some mobile phones/computers may exist compatibility problems.
Software decoding is to use the programming algorithms to parse out and display video data. This will decode slower, consume higher CPU consumption, and generate more heat. When decoding higher-resolution videos, poorly performing mobile phones may not be able to decode the videos. But there is no compatibility problem with this decoding method.
When will the hardware decoding act?
Hardware decoding will act when the APP play and playback the video in the mainstream(clear mode). If the hardware decoding failed, it will switch to software decoding.
When can I disable the hardware decoding?
If you fail to live view or playback the video in clear mode, you can try to disable the hardware decoding.
How to set up
The left menu on the device page->setting->Hardware decoding
3. Notification SoundOur APP allows you to choose different notification sounds. There are four options, Classic, Soft, Loud, and Default. Choose the one that you like most!
How to set up
The left menu on the device page->setting->Notification sound
FAQ about the notification sound:
(1) Why don’t I have the notification sound setting?
It isn’t available for some devices, where UID is beginning with xcptp. If you don’t find the notification setting, please try to delete such devices and set the sound. Then you can add back the device again.
(2) Why do I choose the classic/soft/loud sound but it will be changed to the default sound later?
If you don’t find the devices with the UID beginning with xcptp, please try to disable the push notification, enable it again, and choose the notification sound. If it can’t work, please try to reset the device or upgrade the firmware of the camera.
4. Picture in Picture(Only available on Android)Picture-in-Picture(PIP) allows you to watch the live view while using other apps on your mobile.
How to set up
Live view page->Three dots->Picture-in-Picture
Why isn’t available in the IOS?
Our device can’t realize the Picture-in-Picture function in IOS now. There is some compatibility problem between our device and the IOS. If there is any news, I will let you know.
5. Stretch ModeStretch mode can stretch the image to fill the screen while live view. If you think that the ratio of the video doesn’t fill the screen, you can use this mode.

After enabling the Stretch Mode
How to set up
The left menu on the device page->setting->stretch mode
