Hi 1234.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us. At Ring, we believe in keeping people close to what’s important. That is why we are driven to create products that help you protect what matters most at home and empower you to connect with your visitors from wherever you are. Together, we’ll make neighborhoods safer! We can definitely provide you with more information regarding the concerns mentioned in your review regarding video quality and the optional Ring Protect Plan.

We understand the importance of having all relevant product information prior to purchasing. The Ring Protect Plan provides valuable capabilities, such as accessing paid features and the ability to save, download, and review footage captured by your Ring device.

Ring devices require high-speed internet to bring you crisp, clear video and audio. Poor network connectivity can affect the performance of your Ring device. We are happy to share some troubleshooting steps to help you diagnose and fix common video issues that you may experience with Ring doorbells and cameras.

Ring devices with 1080p video require at least 1 Mbps upload and download speeds, though 2 Mbps is recommended for optimal performance. In addition to ensuring that you have sufficient wifi speeds, you will also want to check the signal strength of your device. A poor wifi signal can cause connectivity with your Ring device to be unreliable. To learn more about your device's signal strength, follow these steps:
Open the Ring app.
Tap the menu (☰).
Tap “Devices.”
Select the ring device you would like to test.
Tap on the “Device Health” tile.
Scroll to “Signal Strength” under the “Network” section.
The green, amber, and red colors are indicators of your device connection. Green is good; red is poor.

Tap "Set up a Device" and select "Doorbells."

Point your smartphone’s camera at the QR code on your Ring device or product packaging. (Note: If you don’t see the QR code, please remove your video doorbell’s faceplate).

Hi sammy.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand the importance of having your Ring Battery Doorbell Pro record clear and concise videos so that you can effectively monitor your home. Being able to rely on the recordings from your Ring Battery Doorbell Pro is an essential feature of the device. We can definitely provide you with more information regarding the concern that you mentioned in your review.

It sounds like the device is not performing as expected about capturing the viewing area. To capture a wider area, it's important to optimize your doorbell's positioning. Correct positioning can improve accuracy of field of view, motion detection, and wifi signal strength. Doorbells should be mounted 48 inches (1.22 meters) from the ground for optimal motion detection. The camera on your Ring doorbell has a wide field of view and does not need to be mounted higher or lower to view approaching visitors.

You can also use a Wedge or Corner Kit to change the angle of your doorbell and improve the view and overall performance of the device. If your home has angled siding, stairs, changes in elevation, or a path leading to the door, you might need to use a Wedge Kit to adjust the vertical angle. If you are installing your doorbell on a corner or adjacent wall, you can use a Corner Kit to adjust the horizontal angle.

If the above steps do not resolve the issue, we recommend reaching out to our Ring Customer Support team. They are available 24/7 at: 1-800-656-1918. We also invite you to reach out to our community. The Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another by sharing their feedback and experiences with each other.

Hi CindyW.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand the importance of having a solid charge on your Ring Battery Doorbell Pro so that you are able to have a longer time between charge cycles. Having longevity in a battery-powered security device is crucial when it comes to monitoring your home, especially if you are away for long periods of time. We are here to provide you with some education to resolve the battery life issue you mentioned in your review.

It sounds like the device is not performing as expected. There are some troubleshooting steps that you can take to ensure that you have your device set up for optimal battery-life performance. The more events captured by your Ring devices, the more your battery is used. Using "Live View" can also drain your battery faster. If your device is capturing an excessive number of events each day, you may need to recharge your battery sooner.

To prevent excessive activity, under "Motion Settings" for your device in the Ring app, you can:

Adjust your "Motion Sensitivity" slider to a lower sensitivity.
Redraw your "Customizable Motion Zones."
Change "Motion Frequency" to regularly or periodically.
You could also adjust the direction of your Ring device so it doesn't detect as much motion.

You can go to "Power Settings" in the Ring app to see what features may be draining your battery.

To access "Power Settings," open the Ring app:

Tap the menu (≡) on the top left of the dashboard.
Tap "Devices."
Tap the individual device (video doorbell or security camera) you want to check.
Tap "Power Settings" to check your "Battery Level" percentage and "Feature Power Usage."
Tap a feature to adjust "Snapshot Capture," "Motion Frequency," and "Video Recording Length.".

While the solar charger is currently out of stock, we do have the plug-in adapter available for the Ring Battery Doorbell Pro. The Ring Plug-in Adapter (2nd Generation) is designed to convert battery-powered video doorbells so they can run using line current. We invite you to visit our support center so you can find the option that best suits your needs.

If any additional information is needed regarding your Ring Battery Doorbell Pro, please reach out to our community. Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another and share their feedback and experiences directly with Ring.

Thank you for being the best part of Ring! Have a wonderful day!
