I specifically purchased the Show and Ring Pro so that I could see who was at the front door before answering. My problem is the delay from the point that a person rings the bell and I’m able to view the live camera (a few seconds to ask Alexa to “show the front door” and a few seconds for the live video feed to appear on the Show. I would like to see a skill that will automatically turn on the live view on the Show when motion is detected or the doorbell is activated. I once read a hack, that I can no longer find, that suggests putting another Dot next to the the show with a script that says “Alexa, show the front door”, when motion or a ring is detected. I have a spare Dot, but this seems so simple that I’m hoping the skill has been added.
