This gives rise to an interesting problem - what if someone else has a Ring Intercom in the same building, so that there are 2x Ring Intercom in the building. Does this other resident add their own Ring camera overlooking the entrance too, or is there a way to "share" a single Ring camera? Now imagine there are 20x Ring Intercom in the same building... 20x individual Ring cameras overlooking the entrance? Obviously this idea doesn't "scale" if multiple residents have their own Ring Intercom and Ring camera, but it's a nice idea if Ring Intercom users can "share" a Ring camera. There are however data protection/privacy/lease issues that may need to be taken into consideration - data protection is a big issue when managing CCTV systems, installing a private camera to the exterior of the building may be against an individual's lease, and may also not be popular with neighbours or the building management etc. However a proper video-based intercom is maybe a better idea (assuming a future version of Ring Intercom is ever able to support video as well as audio) as even a shared single camera becomes an issue when the owner of the camera moves out (or if it breaks) etc. Supported communal infra is always a better option...

I thought this works, when I bought my Intercom and a ring cam this week. Apparently it still doesn't. @ring: this ist a musthave feature! If someone is calling via ring intercom (which is great with my ritto doorbell system!) the linked camera should display the video. This should especially work on echo show devices and Ring App. Thank you.

This is actually what I planned and was hoping to do too. Intercom is a great idea but it's not possible to answer an Intercom call AND watch the live view from the Spotlight Cam at the door. Additionally it would also be awesome to be able to use the Ring Chime as a notification for Intercom! Please @ring add those features.
