Scheduled enabling of home/away mode

Would be great to have a feature to schedule auto home/away to be turned on every day at a certain time, for example 11pm every day since I sometimes forget to turn on the alarm

    Curious if there is a way to schedule “modes.” For example, if I forget to change my mode from “home” to “away” at night while we are asleep then I won’t have the full protection that I get from the way I have my “away” mode set. If I could schedule the “away” mode to come on at say 9pm every night- that would be wonderful. However, I’m only seeing an option to schedule motion times.

      I haven't found a way to do this either. I'd love to be able to have the alarm set at a specific time of night and disarm at a specific time in the morning.

      I was going to make the same suggestion. I find myself toggling every morning & evening between Home & Away Mode. It's great to have the feature, but annoying to have manually handle it daily.

      This is a totally essential feature I'd love to see you in the near future as currently I am the biggest risk to my home security by forgetting to change the mode when I go to sleep or when I get up

      This is in essential feature, to allow you to automatically control when all the cameras can turn themselves on and off, at a given time. It would be nice to have Ring switch to Away Mode every Monday through Friday when I leave for work. Or switch to Home Mode every night at 10:00pm when we go to bed, and off of Home Mode when we get up in the morning...without having to remember to open the app and do it maunually every time.

      I was about to make the same suggestion. Motion scheduling would be MUCH more useful if it was linked to a mode.

    For the love of GOD! What are you guys doing? We want to schedule modes!! This feature has been requested a million and 1 times for months and months on your forum. How hard can this be? Seriously. I see update after update of nonsense, and this feature does not get addressed! How many times does this need to be asked for you to implement? I guess feature request is a complete sham! unbelievable! Al

      And now 5 months have passed, millions of people asking for the ability to schedule modes, and you guys could care less. You push out stuff and settings that are useless, but what we want most of all, scheduling your modes. NOTHING. There must be a reason, and im betting its not a reason you want to share. So, instead, shhhhhhhhh

      I agree there should be a schedule feature, however this can be done through a routine in the alexa app. If you create a routine at a scheduled time ex. 11pm, when you click on "add action" scroll all the way at the bottom there's an option for "custom" where you can type things you would normally say to alexa , just type "arm ring" Every day at 11pm the routine will tell alexa to arm ring as if you said it. This automatically puts it in home mode if you want away mode type "arm ring in away mode" Hope this helps

        This should really have been implementated by now, as i am sure that everyone would want to use this directly in the Ring app, and sleep safely at night knowing that the alarm has been automtically set.
