Doorbell Notification with sound

[TinaV]

Hi. I'm attempting to get some sort of notification with a sound (like when someone send you a text) for when someone rings my doorbell. I have an Android phone. I've looked in the home app in notifications and do not see anything for sound. 

I've even gone into my phone setting to find the app and see if I can add a sound that way with no luck. I got the Camara so I could see if someone came to my door while I was away working. I don't have time to stare at my phone for pop ups. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. Thank you

Hi TinaV,

Settings can be different on different Android devices and different Android versions.

On my Google Pixel running Android 12 the option is in Notifications / App settings / Home / Doorbell press notifications.

I've added the sound, however when we ring the doorbell, it's not even popping up as a notification, much less making a sound. 🤷‍♀️

Hi TInav, 

Thanks for trying. What is the make and model of your mobile phone? Also, just to clarify that every time someone rings the doorbell you want the notification on your phone to make a sound? You can also check this out. https://bit.ly/38TUFYu Let us know if that works.
