Hello MarkA

Thank you for sharing your experience. If your Spotlight Cam Pro Plug-In has become unresponsive, try giving it a reboot by pressing and holding the setup button on it for 20–25 seconds. If it is still unresponsive, you will want to verify that the outlet it is connected to is still working and providing power. These steps should help with your concern.

Best wishes
Ivan from Ring

Hi Gleez03.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.

We understand the importance of your Ring Spotlight Cam Pro working consistently and reliably. Being able to save, download, and review footage captured by your Ring Spotlight Cam Pro is a valuable feature of the Ring Protect Plan. We can definitely provide you with more information regarding the concern mentioned in your review.

It sounds like there was some confusion regarding the functionality of your device with and without a Ring Protect Plan. The Ring Protect Plan is a subscription that gives you access to paid features for Ring devices. With a Ring Protect Plan, you can save, review, and share video recordings from your Ring devices to your Ring account.

Without a Ring Protect Plan, you can still view real-time video for Ring doorbells and cameras and answer doorbell notifications when they happen, but you don’t get video recordings of those events.

Ring Community was launched to help deliver the most current news and educational information to our neighbors. This online forum is divided into four categories: Product Boards, Ring Updates, Tips + Tricks, and a Moderators’ Corner. The Product Boards are where you can begin new topics with your questions or feedback; there is also a search option that helps you find topics that have already been posted by other neighbors.

All the best,
Nicole from Ring.
