      Hello Ring,

      We understand the importance of being connected to live events in the moment. If you have recently received a notification on your mobile device or if you have gotten a blurry screen along with a message that the Ring App is having trouble connecting to the Ring device, this can be attributed to wifi connection. The three most common causes of this problem are the following:

      -A poor connection between your mobile device and the internet.
      -Slow internet upload and download speeds.
      -A poor connection between your Ring device and your router.

      If your signal is poor or very poor, this can be caused by the distance between the router and your Ring product, the layout of your home, or the materials in your walls. Our Ring Chime Pro may be a good fit for you and your network environment. We would love to improve this for you once and for all. Please reach out to us directly so we can ensure your Indoor Cam is working up to your expectations.

      Thank you,
      Antonio from Ring Ring

      Hello Mouse,
      We appreciate you for bringing your Ring Indoor camera experience to our attention. The Indoor Cam is a smaller, next-generation security camera specifically designed to be used indoors to bolster the security around your home. This device also features 1080p full HD resolution, two-way audio, HD video recording, and a wide viewing angle. Please know that it is a priority for us to be of assistance and find a resolution to your concern.

      After reading your review, it seems that your Ring Indoor Camera may not be picking up the correct motion. The Indoor Cam uses infrared motion capturing to detect motion, within its field of view. You can use the Ring app to determine the Indoor Cam’s motion detection range and the specific zones where motion will trigger a smart alert. These settings help ensure that the Indoor Cam will capture the events you want to see and ignore the ones you don’t. Here is a helpful article with more information on how to resolve motion concerns with your device:https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003477106-Understanding-and-Optimizing-Motion-Detection-with-Motion-Frequency.

      Hi Cowboyfan. I understand how important night vision can be. It's important to ensure that there are no other light sources in the area, as this allows the infrared lights to work their best. If you have any further questions or concerns, try browsing the Ring Community at https://community.ring.com/. As our first peer-to-peer forum, the Ring Community allows you to ask questions and interact with other neighbors to discuss your Ring devices. Best wishes, David with Ring. Ring

    Couldn't turn the camera and mic off. You could "stop it from recording" but the mic and camera were always picking up sound and video. Only way to stop this was to disconnect the setup. I wasn't comfortable with this and I was even less comfortable with ring after I saw the fiasco about "privileged higher ups" being able to watch and listen to your feed at their leisure. I do not recommend this camera if you do not get unlimited data for you internet monthly. I don't know if they fixed the security problem yet. Get a cctv security system that saves a backup to dropbox/cloud or something.

    I have many security cameras of multiple brands. This camera lacks features and performance of other brands. Lag on movement recording events is unacceptable. Wifi connection range is not as far as others. App is terribly slow and difficult to use. I suggest the Google Nest cams for better performance and features. That app is wonderful, too. Costs much more, but worth it.

    My Nest has geofencing, my Canary has geofencing, why doesn't my Ring have geofencing? This is a real shortfall in the software and it wouldn't be hard to add. It's a pain in the neck to have to repeatedly disable the alarm and there is no chance I'll remember to turn it on whenever I leave the house. Thinking seriously about returning it.

      Hello JohnM,

      Thank you for reaching out to us with your feature request. Our top priority at Ring is to ensure that our customers have the best possible experience with our products. We really appreciate your feedback. Our team is always striving to improve our products and their performance.

      We are happy to let you know that we now have a geofencing option. A geofence is a virtual perimeter or invisible boundary around a particular geographic location. When you configure a geofence in the Ring app, the Ring app can remind you to set your Mode to “Away” when you exit the geofence. When you come home and re-enter the geofence, your Ring app can automatically snooze alerts from your security cameras and doorbells. For steps on how to set up geofencing in your Ring App, please see our help center article: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360052805372-Geofence-in-the-Ring-App.
