Cellular backup with self monitoring

Hello, I use the self monitoring option with my ring and noticed that it does not include cellular backup. I was wondering if I got the ring protect plus plan, is there an option to turn the monitoring off but still keep the cellular? I was told from customer support that cellular backup only works with monitoring enabled but when checking the forum here I found this: https://community.ring.com/t/how-to-switch-alarm-to-self-monitoring/183 This is from 2019 so I am not sure if that is till the case. I don’t mind paying the subscription but I do not want to have the monitoring enabled. TIA
