Still No Updated Alarm?
Some Feedback for Ring:Still no updated version of this alarm after all this time? It has some shortcomings / dated features:**1. Limted to 2 Zones - seriously vulnerable at night**Rng only offer the followng setting options: Home (Perimeter) and Away (fully Armed).Yet official statistics show 25% ie 1/4 of all burglaries involves entry through a window. That means for anyone with a Ring alam set to Home at night time, 1/4 of all burglar entries will go undetected. That's a serious riisk. LInk to Government Statistics on Method of Entry: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/nature-of-burglaryMany dedicated alarm companies for this reason offer at least 3 zones:Full (Away)Partial (Night Time)Perimeter (Home)The addition of a Partial or Nightime mode enables you set Perimeter sensors alongside the downstairs PIR sensors but excluding upstairs PIR's thereby covering against window entry and offering near 100% protection but still allowing occupants to go to the toilet without disabling the alarm.Ring, really need to produce an updated version of their alarm with this extra (Partial / Night Time) Mode added.**2. Out of date Interface**Whilst Ring continue to offer a white plastic case with buttons, many alarms, even cheap ones on Amazon, have progressed to touch smoked glass touch screens much more in line with modern interiors and living. Isn't it time Ring updated to a black glass touch screen with colour icons and menus?Amazon example (not recommendtion - for visual reference only):Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/SecPanel-Wireless-Anti-fingerprint-Compatible-Assistant/dp/B09P3HRFS8/ref=sr_1_32?crid=129FI7H24FOIS&keywords=house+alarms+security+system&qid=1695730517&sprefix=house+al%2Caps%2C94&sr=8-32&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.cc223b57-2b86-485c-a85e-6431c1f06c86
