I honestly think you guys really need to make a battery powered doorbell box that rings inside our house I honestly do not think that it’s fair that if you have a wire doorbell ring camera, it comes with a indoor ringer where you can hear it but if you have a battery powered ring door camera like some of us, do the only how we get alerts is if it’s on our cell phones tablets, smart devices like Alexa or Google Home if I’m not near my phone, then I don’t know that someone is at my door @google

Google Nest DOES sell a Nest Mini ($49 US), which will provide a chime and a verbal announcement if "Visitor announcements" are enabled on the battery doorbell, to provide an indoor chime if the battery doorbell is NOT wired to a standard indoor doorbell chime. (You CAN have both.)
But they only seem to advertise this on the Great Britain version of the Google Store (https://store.google.com/ie/product/nest_doorbell_battery?hl=en-GB), where they say:
"The Nest Doorbell is battery powered, so it’s compatible with all homes. Pair with Nest Mini to get an audible chime, or use the wired installation to get your existing chime."
But they don't sell this pair in a bundle. In contrast, Ring advertises its Battery Doorbell Plus with Chime Pro bundle (https://ring.com/products/battery-doorbell-plus-chime-pro-bundle).
