Ring offers a comprehensive range of smart home security products, including video doorbells, security cameras, and alarm systems, designed to make neighborhoods safer.
Ring is a prominent home security and smart home company, acquired by Amazon in 2018. Founded in 2013 by Jamie Siminoff, Ring revolutionized home safety with the introduction of the connected video doorbell. The company's mission is to reduce crime in neighborhoods by empowering residents with accessible and effective technology. Ring's product ecosystem has since expanded to include a wide variety of indoor and outdoor security cameras, smart lighting, and the Ring Alarm security system.
Ring devices are designed for easy DIY installation and integrate seamlessly with the Ring App, allowing users to monitor their designated properties from anywhere. Features often include high-definition video, two-way talk, motion-activated alerts, and night vision. As an Amazon company, Ring products frequently offer deep integration with Alexa, enabling hands-free voice control and smart home automation. With options for battery, solar, and hardwired power, Ring enables customized security solutions for homes of all sizes.

Common questions about manuals, registration, and support for this brand.
Most Ring doorbells are designed for DIY installation. Generally, this involves charging the battery (if applicable), mounting the bracket using the provided tools and screws (masonry bits required for brick/stucco), and connecting the device to your Wi-Fi via the Ring App.
Many Ring doorbells can be hardwired to existing doorbell systems (8-24 VAC) to keep the battery charged. For the Ring Wired Video Doorbell, you must bypass your existing chime using the included jumper cable.
To reset most Ring devices, locate the setup button (often orange or black) on the device. Press and hold it for 20 seconds. After releasing, the light on the front will flash, indicating the device is resetting.
Ring devices require a high-speed Wi-Fi connection (2.4 GHz is standard, some newer models support 5 GHz) and an iOS or Android device running the Ring App for setup and monitoring.
Basic features like Live View, Two-Way Talk, and Motion Alerts are free. However, a Ring Protect Plan subscription is required to record, save, and share videos captured by your device.
