I’m not too good with technology so I was worried about trying something like this out. Now I’m in love! I got this to put in my elderly fathers home so that I can see him and talk to him when I’m unable to be there. I am also able to keep an eye on the nurse to ensure he’s being properly cared for. This was so incredibly easy to set up thankfully because I’m not too good with all this new technology.
I am able to see and speak to my dad, and he understands it’s coming from the camera, however, he can not see me. Would be nice if I could find something where he can see me too? But besides that, this camera has been amazing and reliable. To see the smile on my dads face when I speak puts a smile on my face. He told me he feels like God is speaking to him haha. His nurse said said that I can be heard loud and clear as if though right there speaking to him. My dad is hard of hearing, yet has never had a problem hearing me. And his television is usually blasted!
There are a couple great features with this camera. When you go on to check the live feed, you can remain mute allowing for a quick easy check and not interfering with anything. Nothing lights up that I am aware to show I am peeking in on the nurse or my dad. The viewing is crisp and clear and a great wide angle to see wherever you want to see that you’ve placed the camera. We put ours in the living room as to he only has a one bedroom apartment. There’s a microphone button you push to unmute so you can speak, whether muted or not, you can hear everything going on there and the volume is crisp and clear incoming as well. This has been very handy when I DoorDash him and I need to tell him to open his door!
The 2nd feature I love!! Is the alarm. I ran into an issue where my dad had not locked his door, and a random homeless person entered his home. I pushed the alarm button and it is so incredibly loud, it frightened the person out of his house AND got the neighbors attention (he’s in an apartment) who was over within minutes to make sure everything was okay. When the person left, and I seen the neighbor enter, I stopped the alarm and explained why I had set it off. This was my first time using the alarm, and even on my end it was so loud it startled me haha. It’s a wailing deafening siren alarm. One time I thought he had fallen, and did the alarm and the neighbor came again. He was okay, but to know I have that alarm gives me peace of mind when I can’t be there.
All in all, I highly highly recommend this to anyone in a situation as mine. My dad, despite being elderly, uses a walker/wheelchair and has beginning stages of dementia, is stubborn and doesn’t want to live in a home or with me. This camera has made it possible to allow him his independence and I wish I had known about it A LONG TIME AGO! I was scared of being able to figure it out and it was so easy! There’s also a chat where they can help walk you through any questions or concerns. Again.. highly recommended!! We can allow our loved ones to remain at home and it’s almost as though you’re there with this camera. I can work, my dad can be independent and this camera has saved us and kept our situation stress free!!
For his privacy, we don’t have the camera angle to where you can see his bedroom or bathroom. We can see his full living room, kitchen and dining room which includes his front door so we know who is entering and when.

Ring Indoor Cam Review: My Overall Impression

I OWN NUMEROUS RING ID CAMS *****NEW UPDATE 11.21.20*****
I own 5 Ring indoor cams, along with a Ring Elite doorbell and a stick up elite POE cam. This is just my input regarding these cams as I have been testing them and using them for quite sometime. First thing is not every indoor cam works the same, some arrive with older firmware and need updating. Plug in close to your router and do the full set up and do your updates. Once you add the cam to the app and it’s working well, unplug it and move it to the area you want to monitor. Do your set up either by mounting it or setting it on a shelf. Get the angle of view your looking for and then set up your motion zone and sensitivity. Make sure you check the “health” box to see your signal sensitivity. If you are using a mesh router network, you should reconnect to the closest link for it, if not you may have to reconfigure to the nearest of it isn’t automatic. Make sure you turn on the snapshot option as well. If you don’t want to have the indoor cams record or send alerts while your home, you can turn that ability on and off with the new quick access buttons in the app. You will get 30 days of free recording for ALL your cams, with each cam you buy. So if you decide to buy one a month, till you cover all your angles in the home, you will literally get an additional 30 days for every cam on your network covering the 50 days of cloud storage for free. Why not use this option while it’s still available. After you cover your needs, opt for the yearly service. I have 5 indoors cams, covering almost 4000 sf. I love that I can drop in and watch over the home as well as hear and talk through the cams. Night vision in a room is great too. Makes a great baby cam as well. I have had 2 indoor cams give me problems in the past, either dropping off my network, or the snapshot option not working. If you have read my ring reviews before, I am well versed in networking and I have found that some ring reps want to always point the finger at every else but their devices. I can say I have found problems in a couple of their devices and once they were replaced, the problem was solved. Don’t allow them to drive you insane, the community forums are good but they only can go so far for help as well. Sometimes a quick swap of the unit with a new one solves the problem. Amazon has always backed me and they are truly behind their customers.4/2020: I wanted to be able to watch the main entrance and hallway in my home, have an eye level view, no wires at all showing, and nothing that stood out of place. So review the attached pics, maybe this install will gravitate people who are inclined to custom installs, know there is no limit to what you can do. Just plan out your work and never rush. I was able to recess an indoor cam into my wall, and still provide me with all the aforementioned needs. I used a double electrical box as it provided me the necessary room without modifying the box. I used an indoor/outdoor ring power supply and reused the indoor cam plug on the power supply as it fits perfect and locks in. I obtained 120v power from a nearby electrical outlet, and brought my wire into the box from behind the wall. I mounted the ring power supply on the back of the electrical box, and prepped the box to accept the camera. I created a clear acrylic template and was able to use that to cut out the blank wall plate. What’s really nice is I can still unscrew the wall plate and easily remove the cam if I need to do a reset or adjustment. This solved many issues for me and still provided an eye level video shot of persons entering the front door. Since the ceilings are 12’ high, mounting the cam at the ceiling with a downward angle wasn’t conducive in getting a good facial shot. This is just one example of several I have designed myself to combat issues most of us have dealing with wires, angles, placement, etc.11.21.20: After almost a year of Ring use, I have to say I am disappointed in the Ring community forum, their tech support, and products. Just recently, I had two of the ID cams drop offline. No matter what I did, no luck getting them back to work. I actually unplugged a back up ID can and went to move it, that one also dropped offline and never came back up. Tech support was of no help, and the community forum mod just tells you to call in.I would think using 10 ring cameras, I know a little about them. Based on my research, they connect to WiFi, but can’t get to the internet. It appears that there is a high probability that my ISP is blocking the camera for possible threats, even though I turned off my firewall, set up a DMZ zone, and just about created a WiFi bridge to push the Ring cameras too, they still won’t work. They don’t play nice since the last firmware update. So as they fail, I am replacing them with another company. Honestly, I don’t care what brand I use, as long as it works. Read the community forums, and see for yourself. Setting up cameras is not really that difficult, troubleshooting isn’t either as long as you have full control of all devices. Ring doesn’t allow for device control outside of normal settings. Also, Ring devices CAN NOT, be wiped clear of stored memory setting for your home network. It’s embedded in the device. Even if you remove it from your home network, and sell it. It still has your network mirrored in its memory. Found this by pure chance. At the very lease you should have the cams IP address to clear out stored info and reset it. Wow

Well my ring camera did have some pretty serious issues I will say that after ring got in touch with me they were quick to resolve the issue my replacement was brand new and has zero flaws in it whatsoever so it seems I just got a bad camera as the new replacement seems to be working great no disconnect whatsoever!

I love Ring and their products! so why the bad review? Glad you asked. Let me explain. I am literally a walking poster boy for Ring, since the Doorbot and before Shark tank I was All in. I own every single Ring product, I’m not kidding. The Ring indoor camera, while at a Great Price point and small form factor to compete with up and comers Wyze cam, this model is Flawed! You can read it in the reviews I have video proof! I currently have many security cams protecting my home 10 of which are Ring and the New indoor cam is only one giving me issues! It constantly disconnects from my EERO WI-FI network and is the ONLY cam to do so. All other ring cams and cams from other MFR have ZERO disconnects! This Ring indoor cam is about 6ft from my router Shows an EXCELLENT RSSI of -29 and yet it will disconnect at least 5 times a day, or more! What will happen is the cam will detect motion then crash and emit audio static via speaker and in app show Wi-Fi connection Is lost. This crash lasts about 30 seconds before it reboots automatically. Or I can manually reboot by unplugging and replug in the camera if I am in area during the crash. This makes the camera unreliable for home security! During the day the picture quality is excellent, the audio quality is good, night vision is really clear as well. I do have a complaint if you use the color night vision option in settings it adds a purplish hue to video color at night. Before you say “it’s a problem with camera placement such as Wi-Fi dead zone”...I would like to add that where I currently have the new ring indoor camera I had a wired ring stick up cam 2nd GEN in the exact same spot It NEVER had this issue. I moved the ring stick up cam 2nd GEN to my garage and while further away from my router with an RSSI of -41 the stick up cam now in my garage never drops. So as for new Ring indoor cam If not for the constant disconnects this would be a very nice camera to add to the Ring portfolio but in its current state I would say stay away. ***UPDATE 11/20/19*** the Ring indoor cam FINALLY DIED! It’s still had the same Wi-Fi disconnect issues, and the same static issues but late last night it started to show a black screen only would not show any video. attempts to unplug and replug did not help. so I tried to remove from the Ring app reset the device and set it up again. it was stuck on a permanent red LED and was nonresponsive the good news is ring is taking care of me in the sending me a new replacement.Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2019
