If I do not hardwire to an existing door bell and use only the battery pack do I need to buy a Ring Chime for inside the house if I wish to hear the door bell ring? null

Question

The doorbell makes a sound which is no where near loud enough to be heard in the house. However, it rings on your device. so if you dont want to buy the chime or chime pro, you and anyone else living in the house need to have the ring app installed to hear the sound when the bell is pressed

Yes if you are not always close to your phone. It notifies to your phone(s). I bought the chime to make sure it rings there as well in case we are not close to phone. Now a days phone is our body part and if you are not like that perhaps buy the chime like myself.

My brother had our ring door bell connected to Alexa. Alexa lets us Know when someone is at our front door.
