Hi! I hear you're having trouble with the COMMAND PRO app not taking night photos. To help you better, can you tell me if your camera is a Stealth Cam Pro X or another model? Also, do you see any images at all during the night, or are they all black or missing? And have you checked if the night mode settings are enabled in the app or camera itself? This info will help me guide you properly.

Thanks for the info! Since you're getting day pics just fine but no night photos and the flash doesn’t seem to fire, it sounds like the camera’s night flash or infrared illumination might not be activating properly.

Let’s try these steps:

1. Check battery level: Night flash can draw more power. Ensure your batteries are fully charged or fresh, as weak power can disable the flash.

2. Clean the flash window or IR sensor: Dirt or debris can block the flash or infrared light from reaching the subject and the camera sensor.

3. Check settings in the COMMAND PRO app: Make sure the night mode or infrared flash is enabled. Sometimes a setting can be off, disabling night flash.

4. Camera reset: Do a hard reset of your camera:
- Remove batteries and SD card.
- Wait 30 seconds and then reinsert batteries only.
- Turn on the camera without the SD card to see if it powers up normally.
- Reinsert the SD card and test again.

5. Test in complete darkness: Sometimes, the flash won't fire if the camera thinks there is enough ambient light. Try testing in a fully dark room.

6. LED status codes: On your camera, press the "Sync" or status button near the battery tray to check if any LED codes indicate errors per the manual.

If after these steps the flash still doesn’t activate at night and you get blank or black images, the flash LED or IR illuminator hardware might be faulty.

Let me know if you've tried any of these already or if you want me to help you step-by-step through any of them!
