Please bring back the Ring Peephole Cam (or a new version of it)

Please please bring back the Ring Peephole Cam (preferably an updated version of it). The Peephole Camera is perfect for apartments and condos and I love mine so much. I personally have recommended the Peephole Camera to friends who also loved it. My apartment complex personally only allows residents to install Peephole cameras and we’re not allowed to adhere standard Ring doorbells. In addition, none of the other Ring doorbells offer knock detection and this is one of my favorite features of the Peephole Camera. I fail to understand why the Peephole Camera was discontinued. Ring no longer offers a product that is ideal or tailored towards those who live in apartments and condos. I hope Ring is able to bring this amazing product back.

    Hi! I am looking for a version of the Peephole Camera that does not have such a large footprint on the door: We are in a High Crime Area, and a fancy box like that on the outside of the door is a big "PRY ME OFF AND STEAL ME" sign Is there anything smaller that exists which would still allow for the doorbell and communication, but be much harder to steal? Cokeheads will steal anything they can grab, even if its a nonfunctional shiney!

At least you have the satisfaction knowing your "shiny" stolen cam becomes useless to the thief if stolen ("Ownership" feature makes it a paperweight). And with a copy of the Police report, Ring Support will replace it free. :)

    I’ve had a Ring doorbell before, and really liked it. Now I’m in an apartment. I’d really like a Ring Door View, but the external footprint is quite big and therefore sufficiently unattractive so as to stop me buying. My feature request; Please substantially shrink it. * I’d happily forgo the “look through” part for this (and have it as cam only). * I’d happily forgo the button for knock detection alone as the building has its own hard wired external and internal doorbell/intercom system - so I would use it for the apartment door only. * Keep sufficient angle of view so I can see packages left on the doormat.

        Please bring back the ring peephole cam! It had wonderful features and no mounting or hardware required. It’s perfect for apartments or condos and many of us do rent. If you could even make one that is second or third generation that would be awesome as well!

          Yes, please bring back peephole cam. Every time I find a used one for sale, it gets sold so fast! They’re selling on eBay and other sites for around $250.00!!! Ring needs to bring back the peephole door cam!
