Thanks, Sieghard. Do you use it with the Alexa products?
Do you get any kind of a notification if a package is dropped off at your door and they don’t ring the doorbell? We were also looking at a similar product made by Wyze, if anyone has any experience with that company.

Having said this, if you have a traditional doorbell right now chances are it would be a relatively simple thing to get a wired Ring doorbell hooked up. The app is fine but has a few issues, one is that if you switch to live view Voiceover speech moves to the Earpiece, makes it difficult to deal with and a situation where using a headset comes in handy. It also definitely takes practice if you want to be able to answer a doorbell press quickly enough so the persojn at your door hasn’t walked away. I always thought it must be an Apple limitation which doesn’t allow you to answer a Ring notification like a phone call evben from the lock screen where as soon as you tap on the notification it connects you to your doorbell.

Can anyone comment on the initial installation of the doorbell, accessibility of the app, usefulness with Alexa, etc.? If you have recommendations for a specific model, that would be great. We have only used the old fashioned type of doorbells, so are not yet familiar with these guys. Are there any major accessibility issues with the app?
