What works

Each part of the service, checked from Syria.

Core useFails

Blink cameras and doorbells are managed through a Blink account, and the sign-in page returned "not acceptable" from Syria in this test, so the account could not be reached.

The Blink homepage (blinkforhome.com) opened in full from a Syrian connection on desktop.

Sign-upNot checked
Sign-inFails

Opening the Blink sign-in page (blink.com/users/sign_in) from a Syrian connection returned only the error "not acceptable" instead of the log-in form.

One-time codes (OTP)Fails

One-time codes are part of signing in, which failed from Syria in this test with a "not acceptable" error, so the code step could not be reached.

PaymentFails

Paying for a Blink plan needs the Blink account, which could not be reached from Syria in this test because the sign-in page returned "not acceptable".

Upgrading to a Blink plan needs the Blink account, which could not be reached from Syria in this test because the sign-in page returned "not acceptable".
