Are you comfortable handing your Ring ID and password to Simple Commands? They don’t have Two factor authentication either. So while the app. is great and it allows you to do a lot of automation that Ring doesn’t I don’t know how secure Simple Commands app environment is.
When I connected Simple Commands I created a 2nd account inside Ring (just use a different email address to setup the account), DISABLED access to that 2nd account for all video (so that account now just has alarm / contact access) and then used that 2nd account for Simple Commands access.
Do I think that RING and SIMPLE COMMANDS need better authentication, YES !
But adding a second account with reduced access helps.
@RingAlarm team - We need better authentication controls with SimpleCommands. ID+Password doesn’t thrill me (even though I setup a 2nd RingAlarm account just for SimpleCommands).
