Access Code Longer Than 4 Digits
alarm
keypad
app-request
Currently Ring Alaram only allows for access codes that are 4 digits in length. However smart locks such as the Schlage allow for access codes that are 4-8 digits. I would really like to integrate my smart lock with my ring alarm but 4 digit restriction is not acceptable. Please implement the ability to have longer access codes at least for locks but preferabbly for both the alarm and locks.

I second this feature. I don't particularly like having just a 4-digit pin on my door lock. Please integrate 8-digit pins into Ring.

At least 5 digits. Let's say you assign 50 codes of 4 digits. I think that means that the average number of guesses until hitting the right code would only be 20. With 5 digits, it would be a more reasonable 200. Ok, I think that is right, I am not a math expert. Of course there is no reason to have a limit at all.

4 digits was ok for an alarm code but it is very poor security for a door lock. I was shocked to find a security system imposed such a weak security code system. My iPad is more secure than my front door lock.

Agree. This is a huge security flaw. 4 digits for a door lock!? Come on Ring.

This is a huge security breach for a system that is supposed to be a "security system". Amazing that Ring does not even care about this. Ring Alarm is reducing the strenght of devices connected to it (as mentioned above, Schlage allows 8 digit codes, but Ring limits it to 4 digits). For sure far from being a "security system"!!!
