I know other security alarm companies have a system that will call out which contact sensor was just opened. I like that ring makes a chime and all but it would be nice to hear which door was opened. Example: *chime* “Front door, open”

    When someone enters a door or opens a window, the Ring Alarm Base station plays a sound notification. However, I cannot distinguish which door or window was openend. I would like to setup different sounds per notification so I know which door was openend. Preferrebly with a custom sound (wav, mp3 upload function) or a text-to-speech functionallity (e.g.: "Nursery window opened", "Backdoor opened", etc.).

      I would really like it if in the Chime options there was the ability to have the Chime set as a call-out for what sensor was being opened. For example, if my front door sensor was open it would say "front door". A few other examples may be "bedroom window" "back door". Maybe just allow it to call out the actual sensor name and we could name our sensors accordingly. I know this is a common practice with most security systems. I honestly can't believe the best I can get is a chirp or ding-dong from Ring.

          Would it be possible to add the option to have the chirp for the open door / window actually say the name "Door 1" or something like that. I've had that option on all of my past alarm companies and it was nice to have the feature.

            Please allow the ability for the chime to specifically state which door/window is being opened. For example: front door, back door, garage door, window. Please that would be a great addition.
