Permanent Privacy Zone?
Hi there! I’m new to Ring and have just set up my Ring Pro doorbell. When doing the initial setup, I got ahead of myself and put in a privacy zone before the device went through its charging and update cycle. Now, I have a privacy zone that I can’t seem to get rid of. I’ve tried doing a reset of the doorbell, but that doesn’t seem to have worked. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply! I tried doing that, and, unfortunately, it didn't work as I couldn't even select the old privacy zone for deletion. That said, I was dual tracking the solution and called the support line (just got off the phone with them). Ultimately, I had to add a new zone, save it, and close the app. Once I did that, it overrode the original privacy zone setting and I was able to remove the new one that I built.

I had the same problem today. I left everything alone for an hour and when I went back in the zone had been deleted

Welcome to the Community, @Rising\_Sun\_Sailor! No worries at all, I still get excited about using all the great features of the Ring devices upon a new setup myself. This privacy zone can indeed be undone, by following these steps: - Open your Ring app. - Tap the three-lined menu on the upper left-hand side of the screen to open the side menu. - Tap **Devices**. - Select desired device. - Tap **Device Settings.** - Tap **Privacy Settings.** - Tap **Edit Privacy Zones.** **While editing the privacy zone, there should be a trash can (delete icon) to remove a zone. If not pressing the "+" icon should then display the delete option for any existing zones. Feel free to also check out our [help center article](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360027979331) for more information about privacy zones, in case you want to use the feature. I hope this helps! :)**
