Question

Is there any way to get some quick shortcuts to turn on lights through ring? I have some landscape lights attached to the ring transformer that I’d like to turn on quickly instead of going through 20 steps through the ring app. I have an iPhone and SmartThings. I can tell Alexa to turn them on but Alexa is not outside

Answer 1

You can also have the cameras trigger the lights using linked devices in the Ring app. Eg. When someone comes into our driveway, the lights turn on pointing directly to the side entrance and the Doorbell

Answer 2

I don't have the ring transformer but I do have lights. Is there not a light shortcut below the alarm modes/above the camera tiles? I have one next to the event history tile and control my lights from there.  

Answer 3

Maybe use the Alexa app?  

Answer 4

You can use the alexa app and just tap the voice assistant button. You can also on android replace your assistant on your long press home button. Instead of Google, you can make it alexa.
