    Beware that you need subscription to save videos

    I really wanted to like Ring. I think it is an easy setup and a decent alarm system but I cannot get over the fact that you need to pay for each camera if you want to save any video after the 30 day trial video. I understand that saving videos requires cloud storage but I am disappointed that Ring could not provide some very basic storage option considering the price of its products. At least Arlo saves videos for up to five cameras for a week without the need of a subscription. Without the subscription you still get alerts but by the time you get to the live camera, you will likely miss what caused the movement in the first place. I wish I would have known this before I purchased this system and now I am unable to return it. Good luck selecting an alarm system that does not want to force you into excessive subscriptions.

      Hello Miguel,

      Our top priority at Ring is to ensure that our customers have the best possible experience with our products and services. We truly value your feedback, because it helps us improve not only the product from a consumer standpoint but also our standards of service.

      While subscribed to one of our optional Ring Protect Plans, you will be able to access videos from every ring, motion, and live view event for up to 60 days (US). You can also access, download, and share past Ring videos. Without this service, you will still receive real-time video alerts on your smartphone as well as have access to the Live View feature. Additional information about the optional Ring Protect Plan can be found on Amazon's website under the device specifications section of the product page or on our support website.

      We understand the relevance of your concerns and we would love the opportunity to work with you to improve your overall Ring experience. Please contact our support team at your earliest convenience.

      All the best,
      Antonio from Ring Ring
