Confused About Self Monitoring Ring Alarm - New Purchases (since April 2023)
Hi I am super confused about the self-monitoring options.I used to own a ring alarm system 2 years ago and self-monitored it.Reading the documentation, it sounds like things have changed.If I self-monitor a Ring Alarm System (no doorbells, no cameras) then:* I will NOT be able to arm/disarm the system from my phone* I will NOT be getting any notifications on my phoneAm I reading this right? That's a funny kind of self-monitoring, which works only when I am at home (in which case the system would be disarmed :smile: )I just bought a ring alarm system. If I can't monitor it on my phone then I'll be returning it.Are there any new new users (since April) that are self-monitoring?If it helps, I live in Canada.Thanks in advance.Here is the doc:https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/12866034603028-An-Update-to-Ring-In-App-Features

Hi @user49351. The features you've listed are exclusive to Ring Protect Plan subscribers. While you can still [self-monitor](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005322066-Understanding-Professional-Monitoring-and-Self-Monitoring) without a Ring Protect Plan, having one will increase the amount of features available to you.
