You only need a paper clip or a pin.

1. Locate the Reset Button 

Finding the reset button on the spy pen camera shouldn’t be much of a hassle. 

All you have to do is locate the tiny opening, which you’ll find behind the pen, somewhere in the middle. 

If you’re able to look into the tiny hole, you’ll find a tiny button, which is your reset button.

Now that we’ve located our reset button, you can go back to your paper clip or pin and stick it right into the tiny hole. 

Expect to meet resistance from the reset button. So, don’t be surprised. 

Anyway, once you do, push lightly. You should immediately feel the reset button depressed. 

After a few seconds, let go. This should take care of any problems you may have been having with your spy pen camera

Once you are done with this process, you can go ahead and turn on your device again. 

Some Things to Remember When Resetting Your Spy Pen Camera

Be careful to fix the paper clip straight in and not at an angle to prevent any form of damage to some internal components. 

Another thing you may want to avoid is pressing on the paper clip or pin too hard, as this could equally cause some damage to the internal components of the pen. 

Now, what if your device refuses to budge even after you try to reset it? Well, you may want to check back with the company you purchased it from. 

Hopefully, they are able to offer you other options, like a replacement or a refund, if you prefer.
