Yes - this really needs to be added. Often I’ll leave a particular door adjar on purpose (e.g. while I bring groceries in), and would like to be reminded if I don’t close the door after say 15min.
Please add this! I am still leaving my alarm.com and old alarm operating for this feature. If easier, perhaps “Alexa, ask ring if any doors are open” would be a decent interim offering if it were much easier to implement.
Here is the alarm.com setup instructions: https://www.alarmgrid.com/faq/how-do-i-create-a-sensor-left-open-notification-in-alarm-com
Here is a youtube video of it being configured: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u66YBUtX5c4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u66YBUtX5c4
Here is an example of a notification: https://www.alarm.com/images/blog/reminder1.jpg
Please add the capability with Ring Alarm to send a notification when a door sensor is left open for x minutes. I don’t need to be notified every time a door opens, but would like to know when a door is left ajar for more than a couple minutes. This should be easy to do!
Having a problem charging Ring doorbell; I had connicetd AC voltage transformer (24 vac with the power resistor which I did buy it from Amazon) but it does not tricle charge the battery. any ideas!

Is any progress being made on this? Need this ASAP!
Another comment to bump this up.
Like users in other threads, I came to ring from xfinity home which has this functionality.
The phone alert when a door is opened or closed is nearly useless, however an alert when a door has been opened for 5 min then closed very useful.
Please develop this, it seems pretty simple to include in the app. you already have notification when opened/closed just include the time delay as another toggle button.
Same here - I came from Xfinity and found Ring to be a much better product and value overall, given it integrates my existing Ring doorbells and spotlight.
However, the door left open functionality is a must-have. Right now I would have to poll the app periodically to see if anything has been left open.
I guess I can build it if you have APIs.
Yes please!!!
Just another +1. This would be a super useful feature!
I can’t believe it can’t do this, I would trade any existing feature for this one.
This is not exactly a work-around but…
I’ve created routines via Alexa to alert when the doors are open and to repeat every 5 minutes if they stay open.
Only problem is I haven’t found a way to suppress the initial alert from Alexa – so I just have my Echo Show give a voice alert, i.e. “back door is open” whenever a door is open and repeat every 5 minutes if it stays open. Plus it’s good to know which door is opening instead of the generic beep.
There must be a more clever way to do this.
How did you accomplish the check every 5 minutes in the routine? I hadn’t figured out how to do that.
Could you just start the routine with a Wait command for 5 minutes?
I would like to see this feature too. Very useful to many!!
Hey, how did you get that to work with the Alexa routines? I couldn’t figure out the repetition and delay part. Thank you!
I need a contact sensor on my bottom pull out freezer and get an alert if it is open more than X mins. It is super easy for something to drop down in the back and it doesn’t close all the way and the kids don’t notice it.
Please implement this ASAP as its a major feature currently missing.
Another vote for this feature.
