Cannot change the name of a shared location
I understand not being able to change the address of a location/ring that is shared with me. But can you allow us to change the name? My location is 'Home' and the other location is 'Home'. This causes a conflict when using Alexa to control my Ring Modes. "Home is not responding". If I change the name of my location, I can use that. But Alexa still like to try to target 'Home' which is the shared location name that I can't control. I contacted support and they said I have to have the account owner change the name so it will be updated on my side. I don't want to ask the account owner to change their name and affect them, I want to change it on my side for my reference only. Changing the name reference of a shared location on my side without affecting the shared account itself should be possible.
