Maybe a dumb question...

So if you DON'T wire this to an existing doorbell, what happens exactly when the button is pushed? Obviously it goes to my phone, but is that it? I assume it hooks up to at least some kinds of smart devices? How would other people know somebody is at the door? This feels like a really dumb question but I just got this thing for Christmas and I don't know much about them.

    You can get the Ring Chime, Crime Pro or use an Alexa device.

      Interesting. Thanks!In that case, it seems simpler just to hook it up separately and use Alexa.

    I am having the same problem with my Classic (original) Ring. You will probably also notice the battery is losing it's charge; even if it is hardwired (as mine is) to my existing doorbell; the app says it's in battery mode. Everytime I call customer support I get an different answer; and none of them (yet) have been helpful...argh!
