Hi CrazyE,

Thanks for letting us know about your issue setting up the Roku camera. We're here to help.

Follow the details below:

  1. For scanning the code, hold your camera about 5 inches from your phone or tablet screen for at least 5 seconds. 
  2. In daylight, block bright light and increase your screen brightness. In dark conditions, lower your screen brightness. 
  3. If more than 5 minutes have passed, please restart the process, as the QR code is only valid for 5 minutes.

Hope this helps, and keep us posted.
