## Common questions

### Why might Blue Iris Android alerts be missed at night?

Blue Iris alert notifications may not get through Android Do Not Disturb settings, even when everything appears set up correctly.

### Does Blue Iris still support self-signed certificates for Stunnel HTTPS?

A recent Blue Iris update killed self-signed certificates, so the old Stunnel method for securing Blue Iris with HTTPS no longer works.

### What caused the Blue Iris licensing problems during the server outage?

The licensing problems were not caused by the server or database going down; they occurred when it came back up with an older restore point than desired.

### What camera scenarios are discussed when choosing cameras for Blue Iris?

Community discussion includes suggestions for camera models suited to low-light, garage, streetlight, and 4K coverage.
