    Hey @Rolycom! This is possible through your Video Doorbell's device settings. To do this, visit the Doorbell device page in the Ring app, then select Device Settings, and select General Settings from there. You will see a volume slider for the Doorbell volume, which will allow you to silence the Doorbell tone when rung. I hope this helps! :)

      Marley\_Ring I have a doorbell ring and have noticed that anyone who rings the doorbell and I’m 2way talking to them the volume is horrible. Any way to fix this issue without having to repeat myself 3 times to my kids friends telling them they can’t play, they aren’t home, before I go crazy, tell, or give up...? I have installed the extender to hopefully improve the signal but I can’t hear them clearly and they can’t hear me clearly as well?

      Does lowering the volume or silencing the outdoor sound impact the talk aspect? Second question - is it possible to silence outside but still keep the indoor sound on? Will the ring chime be needed for this?

    Same problem here. The sound slider has been set to zero, the first ring is silenced, the second ring plays very loud which, as you can imagine could annoy my neighbours. I have noticed that if you put the app in Disarmed mode (Motion and Live view deactivated on mine) The problem goes away. Hope this is resolved soon.

      Do the people here with problems have their doorbell connected to Alexa? This seems to cause the issue for many people (including me), according to other discussions. Unenabling the device in the Alexa app solves the problem but you lose Alexa announcements, video etc,

      The issue is the connection with Alexa - my dots are fine but the Echo Show causes the problem. Anyone complaining of this I’d be surprised if you weren’t using an echo show. There are multiple threads on this now. @Ring why isn’t something being done? The doorbell was advertised heavily during Black Friday as the companion to Alexa Show. This was the selling point for me. Why is there such a skill when it has such an awful bug? I cannot have my Show connected. The volume of the doorbell becomes so loud it wakes my NHS shift working neighbour.

      So pleased I found this thread—I was tearing my hair out. @Pinkie, has anyone responded to you from Ring to let you know if a fix will be put in place?

    Thank you so much for solving a day of me searching "Why is my ring doorbell so loud when pressed outside". I was beginning to feel terrified about anyone pressing the doorbell as the sound was ridiculously loud.... and yes I have an Echo Show! Is this going to get sorted? As I bought both together because they were advertised to work well together... so far it's a complete pain!

      There’s so many complaints about it. It can’t go on ignored!! Most of us can’t use one of its most advertised functions!

    This is ridiculous. My son went all out this xmas bought me and the wifey the Ring Doorbell and the Echo whatever it is. And for the last three days we have been back n forth to the front door to the echo to the support team to sort it out. The ring on the door is too loud zero should mean NO sound. The neighbours haven't said owt yet. But the side looks say it all. It worked with no sound for a lil while after my son got off the phone to the support team . But it's back on again 20 mins later. This software needs fixing other wise it's getting sent back and we will get another smart bell that does work as it should.
