GEMS Kids Instant Camera

A: Hi Katie, thanks for reaching out about GEMS Kids Instant Camera. No, the GEMS Kids Instant Camera cannot be directly plugged into an iPhone. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi Screen frozen on, thanks for reaching out about GEMS Kids Instant Camera. Here are some other things you can try to unfreeze it: Force Power Off/On (The Classic Reboot): Hold the Power Button: Press and hold the power button down for a sustained period (e.g., 10-20 seconds). Often, even if the screen is frozen, a long press on the power button will force the device to shut down. Release and Restart: Once it's off, wait a few seconds, then press the power button normally to turn it back on. Drain the Battery (If all else fails): If the power button doesn't work for a forced shutdown, the camera will eventually run out of battery. Leave the camera on until the battery completely dies and the screen goes black. Once it's completely off, plug it into the charger and let it charge for a while (at least 30 minutes to an hour) before attempting to turn it on again. This is a "hard reset" of sorts by cutting off power. Check the Charging Cable/Port: Sometimes, if the device is stuck in a weird charging state, disconnecting and reconnecting the charging cable can sometimes trigger a response or allow it to power cycle. Try to Locate the Reset Button Again (with alternatives): Even if you don't have a dedicated "pin," can you find any very thin, stiff object? The end of a paperclip (unbent) A needle (be very careful!) The tip of a mechanical pencil (without lead extended) A SIM card ejector tool (if you have one from a phone) Look closely at the reset hole – sometimes it just needs a very light, quick press. Contact GEMS/Retailer Support: If none of the above work, and you purchased it recently, it might be a defective unit. Contact the retailer you bought it from (e.g., Target, if that's where you got it) or GEMS customer support. They might have more specific troubleshooting steps or offer a replacement. Some sources indicate Target's "MyTGTtech" support (833-848-8324) can assist with these cameras. Hopefully, one of these methods will help you get your GEMS Kids Instant Camera working again! If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi E, thanks for reaching out about GEMS Kids Instant Camera The GEMS Kids Instant Camera prints black and white photos on thermal paper. The exact dimensions of the printouts are not specified in the product information, but they are likely to be similar to other thermal-printed instant cameras, which often use paper rolls around 57mm wide. The camera also features a 2.4 inch digital display screen. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi Cracked wood, thanks for reaching out about GEMS Kids Instant Camera. We apologize for the issue you are experiencing and have a few suggestions that may help: If your GEMS Kids Instant Camera isn't printing photos, here are some troubleshooting steps you can try based on the search results: Check the paper: -Make sure you're using thermal printing paper (which resembles receipt paper) and not Instax film or another type of photo paper. -Ensure the paper roll is inserted correctly. If it's loaded backwards, the prints will come out blank. Some users have found success by making sure the paper extends about 1 inch when closing the lid. Camera Settings: -Reset the camera: Try resetting the camera to factory settings. You can typically do this using a small pin in a designated reset hole. -Check print mode: Ensure the camera is set to "Instant Print Mode" and not just saving to the SD card. -Print Density/Shade: Some cameras allow you to adjust print density. If your prints are coming out very faint or blank, try setting the print shade to "High" or a darker setting if available. If these steps are not successful, we invite you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

A: Hi ava, thanks for reaching out about GEMS Kids Instant Camera If all prints from a GEMS Kids Instant Camera are coming out white, it's likely due to the film being exposed to light before it's supposed to be, a problem with the film itself, or an issue with the camera's printing mechanism.
