Major security flaw w/ Ring modes

There is a major security flaw w/ Ring modes when using schedules. Like most people, we have our Alarm scheduled to Arm in "Home" mode nightly. Without a "Vacation" mode, after setting to "Away" mode and if away for overnight, vacation, situation, what ever the reason, the alarm will automatically disarm as schedule. There needs to be a "Vacation" mode that will override the scheduled Home/Disarm modes. This seems to be an obvious "miss" in the Ring function. Please add "Vacation" override mode that will stay armed until manual disarming. This is NOT a feature request, but a serious security miss. Please address as soon as possible. This should be simple to understand, however please reply if there are any other questions.

    Not sure what you mean. You mean disable the schedules so they don't change the away mode. Thanks for the info , still searching for that particular "request". However, we have our own opinions and NO , I think it's a flaw that should be fixed. When you set it in away mode, it should stay that way until you disarm.

      Hi neighbors. You can locate the feature request for alternative or custom modes [here](https://community.ring.com/t/custom-modes/5409). Our Feature Request board is how we gather and share feedback with our teams here, so please do vote on that request if you are interested in this idea.
