Tap "Add Device" on the home screen of the app, and select "Video Doorbell" > "Video Doorbell".
Follow the in-app instructions to add the video doorbell.

Features: 3-step wire-free installation, Need to recharge the battery.
Follow Step 6, 7 and 9.

If you have existing doorbell wiring:

Install Wire-Powered Doorbell
Features: Continuous power supply, 24/7 recording, 5-second pre-roll.
Follow Step 4 to 10.

Step 4: Check the Doorbell Wiring (for wired installation)

Ring the existing doorbell to ensure the wires are working.
Shut off the power at the circuit breaker. ? OFF

Safety Note: Always be careful when handling wires. If you're not comfortable installing it yourself, have a qualified electrician to do it.

Optional: Bypass Chime for 24/7 Recording

The video doorbell requires sufficient power. Follow steps below to bypass the chime if you have one:

Find the doorbell chime in your house.
Remove the cover and find the screw terminals with TRANS and FRONT markings.
Use the provided jumper to connect FRONT and TRANS terminals on the circuit.

? Note: When the jumper is in place, the existing chime will not sound anymore.

Step 5: Detach Existing Doorbell Button (for wired installation)

If you already have existing doorbell wiring:

Remove the existing doorbell button with a Phillips-head screwdriver (not provided).
Pull the two wires out carefully when removing the existing doorbell. Straighten the wire ends if necessary.

Step 6: Choose a Location

1. Take the video doorbell to your front door and check the live view in the app. Consider the following factors:

Check if you can reuse existing holes and anchors in the wall or door frame.
If placing the doorbell near a side wall, ensure the wall isn't in the field of view to avoid IR light reflection blurring night vision.
Recommended height for drilling new holes is 48" (1.2m) above the ground.
Use the 15° mounting wedge for angle adjustment.

2. Place the screw hole positioning card against the wall to mark the location.

For hard walls (brick, concrete, stucco), use a 15/64" (5.95mm) drill bit to drill 2 holes through the card.

Step 7: Mount the Bracket
