App and doorbell, after having it for about a year of paid service, just stopped doing its job right in 7/21. Prior to this, got notifications, with video, and if I wanted to, could see live view…after that date, keep in mind, my signal is 42 which is very good, and nothing on my wifi […]

The first doorbell from Amazon was defective and the return process was a nightmare. The second doorbell works but it’s hit and miss on what it detects and the notifications, also hit and miss can lag, so be prepared to spend extra money on a Ring chime as your existing chime (by design) will no […]
Worked great for months. After a recent update, the notifications are completely worthless. I am getting notifications up to 3 hours late. sometimes, the camera does not even record when a package is dropped off. The video preview has been removed from the notification. You can no longer access the application when tapping the notification. […]
won’t let me log into the app without the code that is generated from inside the app…. the app i can’t log into. support wants me to email my ID even though I verified my account with them to verify my account. yes, you read that right. took back almost 1k worth of their camers. […]
The app never works. you can’t do anything from the app. can’t troubleshoot anything when you call them they tell you it’s your internet. is the problem yet? the device health report says that it’s in its perfect range and perfect internet connection. this app and the whole ring system is just a waste of […]
The performance of recordings has been deteriorating. I don’t know if it’s due to app updates or what, but recently when there is an event that triggers an alert and recording, there is a glitchy gap in the recording, sometimes long enough to miss what triggered tge alert, rending it useless. Sometime there is weird […]
I have owned several generations of the Ring doorbell, it used to work 90% of the time a few years back. Now that I’m forced to pay for features, it has become unreliable, glitches, and cannot retrieve past videos. Literally, someone is at the door ringing the doorbell and I don’t receive a notification until […]
It’s not a great app. It doesn’t always tell me when there is “motion” outside and never when there are actual people. Before you say it’s my settings, I don’t think any app who constantly goes off all night long telling me the stray cats are “people outside” has any right to be telling me […]
Variable Image Consistency. When I open the app it may, or may not show any of my cameras throughout my property. I have a 1.2gb Xfinity isp that consistently runs at 1.4gb. I have excellent connectivity as well. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Ring app… with no difference in results. I have tried with […]
DO NOT BUY INTO THEIR HYPE. If all you want to know is who was at your door five-minutes ago, they’re great. Motion only shows them standing at the door and nothing as they walk up the porch. Sometimes not until they leave. Most of the time no notifications at all. Pretty worthless without notifications […]
App is super glitchy. When you delete a video, instead of going to the previous video or the next video, it jumps to the very beginning of that day. If you delete another video, it jumps to the beginning of the PREVIOUS day. I then have to go through an entire day’s worth of videos […]
For the most part RING has been a good security/camera system. The new updates made the RING app so much better. So when this new update came out, myself & lots others here in the reviews we’re thinking it was going to be great. RING might as well built a time machine to go back […]
So my annual subscription went up this summer AND they paywalled home/away?? Lol greedflation in app form, ladies and gents. Read the reviews. You can’t arm/disarm- otherwise basic features that were already available to paid subscribers. Well over 200% price increase over the last couple of years. Don’t expect it to stop. Find another alternative.
12/15/24 Update: Since the latest update, the app has had major glitches, plus I’m having to re-connect it to my wifi multiple times per day. Many times, it won’t reconnect and will be “offline” for days. Additionally, features we previously had with the “Home Basic” subscription are no longer available unless you upgrade plans to […]
Update! I wish I could give zero stars! I bought my camera in May 2023, and have used it in 2 different houses. It was perfect up until last month. After the last time I charged my camera, I went to put it back up when I noticed that it wasn’t connected to my wifi. […]
Overall this camera does what it says. We haven’t had problems with it missing people directly on our porch. However there are so many missed events, the notifications are very delayed, and the camera quality is pretty poor when zooming in especially. It misses things that aren’t that far away like a car pulling into […]
The software designers apparently gave no consideration to pressing the same location on the phone when the phone doesn’t respond, because when it finally does respond, the same location on the next screen may change something you didn’t want changed. This wastes time and is bad design, and I think the newer version is worse […]
No Notifications? I’ve had this app for years and it’s notified me of every motion on my phone. A week or so ago, it started asking if I was getting correct or incorrect motion alerts, to which I didn’t respond. The last few days, it’s just stopped notifying me of anything. I’ve checked my notifications […]
The whole point of having a security camera is to check when you hear something outside – but every single time I try to load Live View during noise or motion, it fails to connect. I even tested it by setting off my own car alarm and the app still wouldn’t load. It can’t be […]
App worked great till a couple months ago. Now notifications are pointless if they even come through timely. The doorbell ring no longer works as a notification on the phone, only through the doorbell itself, there is no longer a video preview, the app does not open when you click on the notification, and on […]
