Hi Julie90, Great question! Yes, the Ring Video Doorbell 3 can notify you on your phone and activate your existing chime kit, as long as it is a compatible chime kit. Visit our support center to see if your chime kit is compatible: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044683012-Ring-Video-Doorbell-3-Chime-Kit-Compatibility-List.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can set it up to work your existing chime. I get the alert on my phone for motion, and if they push the button my phone will alert me as well as ring the chime. There are additional settings you will need to turn on, but the internet can help you find them.
