Home app sucks

When I bought my doorbell I went through the home app to connect it. It would

1. "search for new devices".

2. Find a "google wifi pucks"(which I don't own..

 Maybe my neighbor).

3. I select "connect a different device"

4. Scan the QR code for my doorbell.

5. It starts searching 

6. Comes back with step 2 wifi pucks.

I can repeat this as many times as I want and it always says the same thing. (Tried 6 times before I quit).

Now.... At some point it just worked. Now we are 8 months later and the doorbell stopped connecting. So I followed all the troubleshooting steps all the way to a factory reset.

Now I have to go through the whole thing again. Is it a problem with home app? Is it a problem with the doorbell? Personally I think it's a problem that I should just switch everything to Amazon.

That seems quite odd unless you're on a Wi-Fi network that you share with your neighbor.

I am not. I agree. Quite odd.
