App says "Please enter a valid phone number"
app-settings
cs-support

While signing up the minitoring (Setting --\> Monitoring), Ring app keeps asking to enter valid phone number eventhough it is a right number. (in xxx-xxx-xxxx format). Any idea why this happens? The field only allows number (only number keypad shows up in the app and +1 is already pre-filled), so I don't know why it complains. Any idea on how to bypass this?

      This should be working as intended, as long as the number used is valid. Please note that this field might be filled with a country code or +1, which may change by region. Please also ensure there is not a VPN enabled on your mobile device when filling out this information. As neighbors mentioned above, registering via web browser is a great step to try. For further assistance with this, please give our support team a call at one of the numbers available [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/213608406).

        The other people are right, this is a bug. I am running into the same problem for no reason, it just wont accept my number that i use for everything else with no issues. No VPN. You have a bug here, fix it.

        This is not a solution. This doesn't fix the issue. Where can we find reference of the country codes? Because they dont make sense.

      It doesn’t work on the app. Instead of repeating the same advice about the vpn, fix your app.

        Just bought the ring doorbell 3 and as all the people above I'm having an issue on the app adding my mobile number in, just keep saying invalid, I've tried deleting the +44 code before entering my number, not adding the 0 before my number, typing in my full number, it always takes off the first 0, it always comes up as INVALID!! I haven't even unpacked the thing yet and I'm having problems! HELP! Please sort this out!! No VPN here either.
