Camera Event Notifications
Can Ring capture an image and send it with the notification? It would save a lot of data, If I had an preview image of what was captured in my notification, I could decide from that whether or not I need to open the app and view the camera event. If its just a stray dog or cat, swipe it away and be done.

Would love it to include the thumbnail image in the notification. Could be achieved so easily too (at least on Android, not sure about iOS, and that may be the reason it doesn't—Ring seems to try to keep very close feature parity between the two platforms).
