If you have a Ring Doorbell and an Amazon Alexa device, you can easily pair them together and access your camera through your Alexa device. In this tutorial, we will show you how to connect your Ring Doorbell to Alexa.
First, you need to download the Amazon Alexa app from the Play Store or App Store. You also need to make sure you have downloaded the Ring app and set up an account with Ring and linked it to your doorbell.
Open the Amazon Alexa app and tap on the menu button. Then, scroll down to “Skills and Games” and tap on the magnifying glass in the upper right corner. Search for Ring and tap on the first option with the Ring icon. Tap on “Enable to Use” and sign into your Ring account. Tap “Authorize” to give Alexa permission to access your account.
Once you are linked, close out of the Ring website and tap on “Discover Devices” in the Alexa app. Alexa will search for your Ring Doorbell. Once it is found, tap on “Setup Device.”
You can add your camera to a group if you have multiple cameras or smart devices, or you can skip and have it separate. Once you have made your choice, your front door is set up and ready to use.
To access your camera from your Alexa device, simply say “Alexa, show me my front door.” It will show up on the screen within seconds. You can also tap the screen to turn on the microphone and talk to anyone outside. When you are finished, say “Alexa, go home.”
