Manage Ring Devices Using Locations

Group your Ring devices by their physical location using Locations in the Ring app.

If you have a Ring Alarm and a number of Ring cameras at both your home and place of business, you can group these devices into "Home" and "Business" locations. When you want to check on the status of a business camera or make an adjustment to the Ring Alarm system in your home, you can view devices at that particular Location.
