    Hi Everyone. I've just purchased this device and struggled to take the back off. Make sure you take 2 screws out the bottom. Then stick 2 nails (on your finger) and pull it APART not up or down motion! Just pull it away from the device! Great day ?

      After talking with RING CSR, it seemed (TO ME ANYWAY) the lady did't really know how to get the back off. Finally the after being put on hold for awhile, she said pry it off from the bottom of the RING camera. I broke a few fingernails but obtained a very small opening. Next, BE CAREFULL DOING THIS, my wife gently pushed my letter opener, which widened the opening. Then, I had a little give in the cover and I reefed/ pulled on the cover, seperating it from the actual RING Doorbell Camera. It finally came off. I guess I was being to gentle, thinking it woud break everything.

        It was simple by pushing my fingernails under the edge on the SIDES of the bracket and pulling. It came right off.

          It’s held by a strong magnet. Hold at the center and pull apart gently.

            Turn the unit to the side and put your finger nail between the unit and the wall mount it will open up
