Good to hear it’s the app and not your phone. I would turn off automatic updates in the play store. This will prevent it from doing it in its own. I’ve learned after many years of Android that turning it off is the best. This way you know what updates. Then if something goes wrong you can remember that it was just updated and it’s most likely the cause of any new issues.
I will bring this thread to Ring’s attention. They should respond and hopefully pass this problem to the right team to correct the issue you’re experiencing. At least for now it all works and you’re not missing anything being one update behind.
