Poor battery
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.battery is very weak. Only lasts a month. Terrible for outdoor use when you have to get up on ladder. Has slot for extra battery and should come with it for the price. Extra money for subscription too. Adds up quickly. I returned.

Posted .Hello Chad,
At Ring, we believe it is imperative that our customers receive all pertinent information regarding additional benefits they have the option to subscribe to, such as the Ring Protect Plan. Having this information allows someone to make the best purchasing decision for their needs. Rest assured, we are here to provide you the information needed to resolve your battery life concern and the Ring Protect Plan options available to you.
Batteries in Ring devices are designed to go months between charges under normal conditions. However, real battery life is dependent on a number of factors such as local weather, number of events captured, and frequency of activation. This article will cover some of the factors that could cause your battery to require more frequent recharging: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/208190773-The-Battery-In-My-Ring-Device-Seems-to-Drain-Too-Fast.
We provide information to our customers about the optional Ring Protect Plan on our Ring website, here: https://ring.com/protect-plans. Your Ring app will also notify you during the free 30-day trial of our cloud plan, as well as in an email after a successful setup of a Ring device. With the optional Ring Protect Plans, you have the ability to review, save, and share your video recordings for as little as $3.99 a month. Your Ring videos are stored in the cloud for up to 180 days (in the US). Without a plan, you will still receive real-time motion and ring alerts, as well as have access to the Ring live view feature.
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 with Ring. If you have any further questions or feedback about your Ring Doorbell Wired, please contact us at https://community.ring.com/.

Worry free
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great camera for outdoors, feature such as wifi and solar charger backup makes it worry free. You don't have to rely on power outlet. I going to buy more.
I would recommend this to a friendEasy to install wireless camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These little spotlight cams are really useful for installing inside or out, and the alerts come right to your phone. Batteries are rechargeable and are long lasting.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I added this camera / light to my home security and it makes all the difference. I love the feature of making my own monitoring zones.
I would recommend this to a friendEasy install
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not sure if I’m missing something, but I can’t figure out how to adjust the field of vision for alerts, if it is even an option on this device like it is on the doorbell. If so, 5 star rating all day

Don’t buy.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m annoyed. 1. It never picks up ANYONE entering my property. Delivery trucks, jogging neighbors nothing. It only detects people leaving the house. By then it’s too late! 2. Battery life is 30 days max. For $200, I should not have random to no alerts nor should I have to buy an extra battery. Bought my boyfriend a $60 camera for his shop that works better. If i didn’t toss the box I would have returned.

Posted .Hello Keys,
Ring knows the importance of having the motion detection work as intended. It is a valuable feature that is designed to notify you as to who may be near your home. Please know that it is a priority for us to be of assistance and find a resolution to your concern.
It sounds like the Motion Frequency feature may not have been set up properly for your environment within the Ring App. Ring's Motion Frequency algorithm is an internal program that runs inside of your Ring device. It analyzes the traffic patterns of detected motions, looking for repetitive patterns. When it detects such a pattern, it essentially "sleeps" your device for a certain period of time, cutting down the number of motion alerts you'll get from the same set of stimuli. The more time a repetitive pattern of motion continues, the longer the time between issuing motion alerts.
Please reach out to us directly via our community forum at https://community.ring.com/ so we can find a solution to best resolve this and ensure the device is functioning as it was intended.
Thank you,
Antonio from Ring
