Subscription
- Video recording & saved clips needs Ring Solo ($4.99/mo). Live view and motion notifications work without a plan; recorded video needs a subscription.
Joe should know
Without a Ring subscription (Ring Solo is the cheapest tier) you still get live view, motion alerts, and two-way talk, but nothing is recorded, so you cannot go back and watch a clip you missed. Saved video and person alerts start around $5 a month for one device.
