Phone doesn't ring when someone pressed the button on my Google doorbell

Roo023 — Sun, 09 Jan 2022 08:57:54 GMT

Hi,

Why doesn't my android ring when someone pressed my Google doorbell? It will give a notification but like many notifications you probably will miss that one. You would like to interact with the person at the door.

Would it be possible that the phone will ring instead of.notification?

Unfortunately pressing the doorbell doesn't create a ring on your phone. I too have recently bought a battery doorbell and was frustrated by the lack of this seemingly simple software solution. My work around was to buy a Nest mini speaker, this at least will emit an audible ring/chime in the house, alerting you to the fact that someone is at the door.

Thanks but that will not help me if I'm not at home. I usually do not take my spreaker when I leave home 😊

I really hope Google finds a solution. It is definatly a reason to buy a different brand

Thanks @Brad

Icsee that onlther members are also complaining about this issue for a long time. Could you please give an indication when this should be solved by Google?

This doesn't work for me and if rlthere will be no solution in short period of time I unfortunately need to find a different solution.
