Hey Neighbors! At this time, there is not an option to delete a neighborhood, but if you are concerned about getting alerts for a neighborhood you are no longer apart of, you can turn off the alerts for this area.
Here are the steps:
Go into your Ring App
Go to the three lines at the top left and click on Neighbors
Click on the gear icon at the top right
Find the neighborhood you no longer wish to have alerts for and select “Alert Preferences”
For schedule, turn this to Off
Under Alert Types, deselect all types.
This should help you at least get rid of any notifications you may still get for this neighborhood in the meantime!
This isn’t a solution. It’s a workaround. I don’t understand why this topic is marked as Solved.
Ring Representatives, Do not mark this thread as “SOLVED”, it is NOT SOLVED. When Ring actually fixes the problem by allowing us to delete an address from the neighborhood settings, then this thread can be marked “Solved”, until then it is not solved!
FROM THE APP
-click on 3 line button on top left
-click on your address at the top of the sidebar menu(this will drop down all saved locations) and click on the old address you want to delete (this will take you to your old location page)
-click 3 lines button on top left again
-click settings
-click the little red trash can on the bottom right under your full address
Voila! All done! Took me forever but I did it and hope this helps!
I tried reading all the replies but hopefully I’m not repeating someone else.
We aren’t trying to delete addresses in the ring app, we are trying to delete addresses/neighborhoods from the “Neighbors” app by Ring. Currently they don’t give you the option to delete incorrect neighborhoods from the Neighbors app which is honestly SO ridiculous
It’s not a “bug” it is done with intent. It’s like three lines of code to put in a delete feature. They keep your old addresses so they can track you, sell your info to merchants, etc. It’s just life now…just the way things are. Trust me it’s like 10 min and 3 lines of code to put in a delete feature.
Hi there, neighbors! Have you tried disabling the Neighbors feed entirely for that location? If not, I would start by first by going through all of your Neighbors Notifications settings, mentioned in this Help Center article.
Tap the three lines at the top left of your Dashboard screen.
Tap Control Center on the left side of the screen.
In Control Center, navigate to the Neighbors section on the main menu
In the Neighbors page, you can enable or disable the feature via the toggle.
If disabling, confirm you wish to disable.
After disabling the feed in your Ring app, please re-enable the Neighbors feed, and adjust your Neighbors settings if needed. During this step, please also check your Ring app Menu > Settings > Locations, to make adjustments to addresses showing in the Ring app (remove, change, etc). Feel free to let us know how this goes!
You’re right, the solution should be easy, I can delete the device locations, why can’t I remove neighbors?
I guess by Ring’s logic, if there is a masked man with an axe in my front yard I should just “not look out the window”. There, problem solved.
2022 and still this lingers on…
I agree, adding the ability to delete a neighborhood is a no-brainer. We should not need to ask for this. Let me “swipe left” to delete a specific neighborhood. Don’t force me to disable Neighborhoods entirely…I want alerts in MY neighborhood, not the last 3 places I’ve lived.
In the meantime, it looks like the Neighborhood feature defaults to sending alerts from within a 5-mile radius. Reducing this to the minimum (0.1 miles) gets you down to a literal neighborhood. Then you can further reduce this alert zone to a house, if you like. That should reduce the number of alerts.
Good luck disabling neighbors completely, I haven’t been able to, even uninstalled the other app, disabeld it in control center, and every time I open Ring it still goes to neighbors.
Hello there. There is a way to delete neighborhoods. It has to be done by deleting locations. On your ring app, at the top where you see your main location, mine is Home, there is an arrow, you will need to click there and select the name of the location you would like to delete. Once you select location(old location), you need to delete all the devices and groups listed on that location. Once everything has been removed you can click the trash to remove location. Once location has been deleted, it will no longer show under neighborhoods. Hope this help. Take care.
