1. [R3] 5/5 · US Ring Doorbell: As a traveling nurse, it is comforting to be able to check my home inside and out while on assignment. It is effective, clear viewing, notifies me with need to recharge, and keeps me in the know. I wish I had found you sooner. Thank you for a great product.
2. [R7] 5/5 · US LIFE: I’m Disabled and I Can’t imagine My LIFE without it 🙏🏾
3. [R14] 5/5 · US Good product: It’s a good device to have as a security system specially for the front door you can talk and see the people that are at the door or coming to your door definitely recommend and very satisfied with the options you get to modify your preference.
4. [R86] 5/5 · US 24/7 Security: It’s like having 24/7 security cameras throughout my whole home and doorways are literally a tap away to view. This is money well spent.
5. [R9] 5/5 · US Wonderful: I love my ring devices. I just wish I could find someone to properly wire them for me. But that’s not a ring issue My cameras have such beautiful definition and color. The connection is great. I don’t understand the negative comments. I bought the least expensive equipment because I am poor. I pay for the cheapest connection. The devices work perfectly. Five years now. I would hig
6. [R69] 5/5 · US Love it!!: Love my Ring doorbell! Camera quality is amazing and the alerts I get are great
7. [R57] 5/5 · US It’s a little pricey, but well worth it.: I have three cameras at different spots of my house. Two have the solar power panels, and one plugged in to a power outlet. For seven years I have had at the push of a button, the live view of all areas around my house. There are a ton of settings so you can make the cameras work as you want them to. The motion detection is spot on, alerts are usually
8. [R10] 5/5 · US Awesomeappandorodictseasytousenoscams: Awesoneappnochineseb***
9. [R18] 4/5 · US Ring camera: I like the service a lot because it’s easy to use and controls. I don’t have any complaints about it since I have been using it. I just like it a lot more than other apps that are required a monthly payment and always having issues to use the service
10. [R186] 3/5 · US Works as needed: The app definitely works as needed is simple to set up. I mean so simple a child could sync the devices. Allows you to view record and add post to the neighborhood. Had one issue and support was right on it within a day. The only reason is not five stars because they’re recording services are rip off and definitely not worth the money
11. [R28] 5/5 · US Customer service: Great customer Service!
12. [R97] 5/5 · US Josie Vasquez: Thank for being very helpful. The agent very kind and patient!!!
13. [R2] 1/5 · US Constantly offline: App updated and even before then the camera was constantly offline. I have incredible wifi and the router is top of the line. Seems no matter what we do it will stay online for about a day but if anything even the slightest happens the system requires jumping through hoops and doesn’t stay online. Highly suggest a different security camera. Plus the monthly subscription just is
14. [R22] 1/5 · US Extremely Unreliable!: Constantly shows as “offline” and have to trouble ALL THE TIME. The design is very faulty in which the camera is unstable and falls when you try to use the panoramic view, which makes it yet again unreliable. I want to like it but it’s the absolute worst.
15. [R29] 3/5 · US Not Reliable: It’s great when it works but goes offline frequently. We have upgraded the transformer which helped a little.
16. [R34] 1/5 · US Always going offline: I have two doorbells, and they are always going offline and needing to be reset. I haven’t used them in ages because of this. Even when they did work, the added equipment so I could hear the doorbell on the top floor of my house didn’t work. I’m thinking about getting rid of these and replacing them with something that actually works.
17. [R43] 1/5 · US Last Update Bugged: Multiple cameras have shown “This footage is unavailable” where my snapshots should be since this last update. Please fix.
18. [R46] 1/5 · US Lost snapshots: Not sure what is going on but none of my cameras show snapshots since I updated the app. Please fix this.
19. [R49] 1/5 · US Update version 5.107.0 snapshot version Bug!: A couple days ago I was having a problem with the timeline snapshots on my iPhone 17 Pro Max. It started showing “footage unavailable”. My husband is running the 5.10 6.0 version and it’s working fine. He called and was on the phone for over an hour. Trying to figure it out. But ended up not working and I found out through Gemini that it was a version
20. [R51] 1/5 · US Terrible: Ever since the last update, my footage has been unavailable. I have the paid subscription, I reset my router, reset camera, rebooted camera, did every step your website says, and I cannot see anything on the reel for time going by. Thanks for messing my my camera with your update. There are also people on Reddit with my same situation. They literally posted about this same situation 3 da
21. [R4] 1/5 · US Bought original Ring camera. No longer detects motion: I’ve had the original Ring camera for years. But lately it’s been failing to detect motion activations. My neighbors house was broken into and the camera didn’t capture a single thing from the drive way next to it. I’ve had to add a backup camera from a different company since the Ring is no longer reliable. Just now my Farmers dog food order
22. [R11] 3/5 · US Used to be good: The Ring door bell used to be good. But then it got slow at detections and loading! We used to be able to click the notification when someone is detected and it load right up. Now….!? The person has already passed by or left once it finally loads. Worst thing is when someone rings the doorbell, it will not load!!! Very frustrating and very annoying!!!! Used to be good! -used to b
23. [R21] 1/5 · US Disappointed: It will work most of the time live however, not always. It frequently does not record what’s going on despite the battery being fine so they have a lot of work to do on this thing. Still fails to record and their support is useless.
24. [R25] 1/5 · US Semi useless: It sees me every time a stray hair enters the field of vision. A stranger can dance in front of three cameras and it doesn’t see them at all. It sees traffic I don’t care about but not the mail truck that is closer. But don’t worry, you can pay monthly for individual features like identifying birds and your dog’s behavior patterns.

25. [R5] 1/5 · US Security: I don’t like the neighbors app because if you post a video, you let everyone see your camera angle. That’s a huge security concern.
26. [R12] 3/5 · US Average: The part that annoys me the most is posting and sharing to notify neighbors what you’ve captured. I’ve constantly gone to post, and if you do not answer all the questions in the boxes the ring admins see fit they will not share your story. But there will be 2038 posts about a helicopter flying by. I also wish the cameras has a better lenses for capturing faces and license plates.
27. [R30] 1/5 · US On the verge of cancelling and throwing away the equipment.: Great concept and horrible follow through. If security is your goal, then this is clearly not the platform to use. If your app isn’t up to date then you will randomly not receive notifications. The paid subscription will not allow 24 hour camera cottage review unless you have certain equipment. Otherwise you are relying on a motion event
28. [R8] 1/5 · US You pay $65 to use this camera: If you are not willing yearly subscription, its useless.
29. [R72] 5/5 · US Ring: Love it but having to have ring cloud to save video is Expensive
30. [R105] 5/5 · US how do I Renew my account?: Miss having recorded footage
31. [R39] 2/5 · US Captures: No matter how many times I adjust my settings the cameras are constantly missing important images, it’s so frustrating. I receive a message or package at my door and yet the camera doesn’t capture a person dropping anything off. My other complaint is the lack of clarity. I’ve used RING AT HOME for years, I wish I could be compensated. While I don’t want to go with someone else for securi
32. [R317] 3/5 · GB Face and reg recognition should be better.: Very pixelated camera for 2026.
33. [R169] 3/5 · US The battery dies very fast: The ring dies after about 5/6 days this is not good
34. [R306] 3/5 · GB A good concept: The doorbell is a good concept and I like that you can talk to and see people through the doorbell but it’s a bit annoying that it has to be charged and that you have to keep logging back into your account. It’s not a seamless experience.
35. [R26] 1/5 · US App deleted my devices: My pet got out while I wasn’t home and I went to my app to see which way they went. When it opened, I had to log in again and my devices were removed leaving me unable to access my doorbell
36. [R27] 1/5 · US Terrible app: It does not even allow me to create a password says there’s something wrong. Don’t know how to get a hold of anybody for any kind of support.
37. [R61] 1/5 · US New iPhone - No Ring!: I just acquired a new iPhone and now I cannot even sign into my Ring account using the app. All I see is 406 Not Authorized. I can log in from my computer, just not my phone. How do fix this?
38. [R92] 3/5 · US Passkey: The site asked me if I wanted to use a pass key to sign in from now on and when I said yes, it just went right onto the next screen without letting me under a pass key. So now I guess I have a pass key, but I have no idea what it is. What a joke!
39. [R32] 2/5 · US Expensive: Costs too much for what is available
