Carla: At the time I got my doorbell, which was about three years ago, you needed an Echo device with a screen to talk to the doorbell, but I think that now you can do it even with the Echo dot. Might want to make sure, if you just have a dot. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

Yes I do have Amazon Alexa. Thanks for the info.

After you get the notification on your phone, you have to double tap the notification to open the ring app. This takes two or three seconds. If you want to talk to the person at the door, you have to find the talk button, which voice over does not announce by swiping. You have to know where it is, which is in the upper left part of the screen. Voice over will announce it when you slide your finger over it. Then you have to double tap the talk button. These steps take a bit of time, so not immediately available. To make things faster, if you have an Amazon Echo,, you can just wake it up and say, “talk to the back door’, and the mike will open immediately. This is the quickist way to get to talk, if you are at home. Hope this helps. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

I had a situation at my house last night and I want to get the ring doorbell. I need to know which model works with voiceover and if it is totally accessible. Also does voiceover react slow or does it activate real fast when I open the doorbell app when the phone rings. Thanks for any help you can give.
