Want Peace of Mind? How to Quickly Disable Distracting Ring Neighborhood Alerts
Ring’s “Neighborhood Notifications” feature keeps you informed about nearby safety incidents, but for many users, the constant alerts can become overwhelming. If you’re tired of non-stop pings from your Ring app, you can easily turn off these notifications on both Android and iPhone devices for a calmer, more focused experience.
Why Consider Disabling Neighborhood Notifications?
- Reduces unnecessary distractions from frequent alerts.
- Helps you focus on the security events that matter most-your own property.
- Customizes your Ring experience to fit your personal needs and preferences.
Step-by-Step to Disable Neighborhood Notifications in the Ring App
- Open the Ring App on your Android or iPhone.
- Tap the three lines (≡) menu in the top left corner.
- Select Settings.
- Tap on Neighbors Settings.
- Go to Neighborhood Settings.
- Tap on Push Notification Settings.
- Turn off the toggles for:
- Comments on Posts
- Unread Alerts
- Public Safety Posts
Once you complete these steps, you’ll no longer receive neighborhood notifications from the Ring app. If you ever want to re-enable them, simply follow the same steps and switch the toggles back on.
Additional Tips for a Customized Experience
- You can further refine your notification preferences by customizing which types of alerts you receive or by limiting notifications to your immediate area only.
- On Android, you can also adjust notification settings directly through your device’s app notification controls for even more granular management.
