Ring doorbells will be able to greet people with holiday cheer
Photo by Dan Seifert / The Verge Ring is releasing some holiday-themed Quick Replies to add some cheer to its doorbell's automatic answering feature. Instead of the usual We can't answer the door right now, but if you'd like to leave a message, you can do it now" types of messages, you can instead have your Ring greet visitors by saying We're busy wrapping presents right now," or have it automatically thank delivery workers for bringing gifts to your door.
According to Ring, Quick Replies are available on pretty much every Ring doorbell. While the feature is free, you'll have to be a paying subscriber if you want any visitor responses to your doorbell's Happy Holidays!" greeting to be recorded (though you can watch them happen live without a Ring Protect plan).
