Show doorbell or intercom notification as phone call
Most of the time I have the notifications on my iPhone on silent, so I can stay focused when I'm at work. However, when someone rings my doorbell, I do want to be notified. I think it would be great if the Ring app would integrate with CallKit on iOS. That way, I can also answer the doorbell using the buttons on my bluetooth headset or even carkit. And that way I get a constant "notification" like a phone call. I'm pretty sure similar APIs exists for Android.

Totaly agree with this, It's difficult to see standard notification, a real call would be mandatory !

How has this not been completed? A door ring comes through as a video call like any other app I have. Unlocking my phone to access the app to answer the call is a pain.

Please Ring Team, Add this feature to answer door rings with video or audio phone call. Maybe the call-kit feature would solve this. Please be focused to add this feature soon. I've missed so much door rings because the notification on silent iPhone and Apple watch come thru like every other notification... Thank you in advance

I keep my iPhone always on silent mode and so any notification is only a faint vibration for me and I often end up missing when my Ring doorbell is actually pressed. It would be great if this could integrate with the call kit in iOS so that a ring of the doorbell acted like a phone call to my phone which means it would have a different (I.e. longer) notification.

I have a WUUK doorbell that allow the call notification. I ordered a Chinese brand for a second house, but it doesn’t have the call notification. So I ordered the ring, and surprise! It does not have the call notification 😫😫😫
