Ring Doorbell

Hi

my partner has a a Ring doorbell system. I noticed that you can add the app to google home, but beyond that I can’t do anything with it, and I can’t get it to work at all.

Do the Ring doorbell systems ONLY work with google hub? I thought and hoped that you may be able to use Google Nest speakers for the audible chime?

Hey there Si, 

I understand that you're wanting to set up a Ring doorbell with the Nest Speakers, I'm happy to look into this for you. 

 

Apple users must also download the Google Assistant from Apple Store. Android phones already have pre-installed Google Assistant, so no need to download this App.

Now, Go through the below steps to connect Ring with Google Home:

  • The first thing you need to do is to Open the “Google Home App”.
  • Now Tap on “+” icon which is at the top left corner.
  • Click on “Set up new device” and then click on “Have something already set up?” 
  • Choose your device from the options provided.
  • Now, follow the instruction provided on the Application.
  • Google Home will ask to “Allow” the device.
  • Click on Allow and then on Done.

You can also just scan the QR code that is provided on the back of the Ring Doorbell. Google Home will automatically get connected to the Ring Doorbell.

 

Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

 

Best regards,
