Can’t unscrew my ring doorbell.
I think the screws are stripped. I can’t take the doorbell off to recharge. And the charge isn’t lasting very long anymore even though it’s connected to my doorbell wires.

I used a very slim sharp steak knife and a rubber band Put the rubber band over the screw head then unscrew it. It worked after several attempts - the screw is thread bare so luckily there’s a spare in the box

Sorry to hear about this, @ratings7! If the screw is not turning or loosening when using the screwdriver as normal, try using needle nose pliers if available. Alternatively, feeding a rubber band around the screw will allow you to grip for turning and pulling downwards for removal. If these tricks do not work for removing the screws, please give our support team a call at one of the numbers available [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/213608406). We’re taking additional steps to protect our team and help reduce the spread of COVID-19, so this has resulted in longer than normal wait times.
