iOS - Ring Peephole - Motion Alert keeps turning off

I noticed that the **motion alert** inside my iOS app keeps turning off. Once i turn it back on, and force close the app. I go back to the app and its off again. Anyone else experiencing this issue? Troubleshooting: I have the latest iOS Ring app from the app store. I have re-setup my ring device twice = same issue. I'm thinking of setting up a new account all together (have not done yet)

    Same exact issue here. Have turned it back on, works for a couple of hours. Go back in and randomly turns itself off

      Thank you for sharing your experience neighbors! The first best step to resolve this concern would be to uninstall and reinstall the Ring application on your mobile device. Please also check that your mobile device is up to date and it's notification settings are allowing for the Ring app to notify. If this Motion Alerts toggle in the Ring app is continuing to toggle off, please attach a screen recording to your response. This screen recording should show the Motion Alerts toggle being on, the forced closing of the Ring app, and the reopening of the app to see the toggle in the off position. We've shared your feedback with the team and any further details will help us while we investigate further. Thank you!

      As advised, removed the app and downloaded again. I tried uploading a screen recording (mp4 - iOS), says invalid type (extension). Anywhere else I could send this?

      I have redownloaded the ios app. And still the same issue. However, just to note, i am still getting motion alerts even if this bug is present. So i think this is more of a UI issue. I have attached the video to my google drive since there is a 10MB limit for zip files. Feel free to access the file.

      Unfortunately unlike the other user, I am not getting alerts after random times. Sometimes works for a few hours with no issue. Sometimes as short as 30 min and no more alerts (even when I open the door and walk out)

    I did the same thing and have the same issue, I think it’s a defect and should be recalled

      I have the exact same problem. I don’t get my notifications, then I open my dashboard and notice my motion alerts have switched off. Frustrating!

          Same here just got and set it up yesterday and the Motion Alert setting continually shuts off. Not sure if the Rapid Ring App will still detect motion or not when the main Ring App disables.

          So frustrating. We pay good money for these devices and they don’t work properly. If I don’t get a notification this device becomes useless. Does ring read these messages? Or do we have to contact them a different way?

        Yeah I’m having the same exact issue. It’s driving me crazy. Even if I don’t force close the app it still happens. Happens on both my iPad and iPhone. It sucks as the camera has helped me but it will not help me without the proper notifications. I will return all my ring stuff if they can’t get this basic feature right. I feel like it’s happening even more now that I’ve integrated a secondary ring alarm at my business. I turned off motivations on those wired cameras which don’t seem to have the same issue though.
