Ring Doorbell, Camera and Alarm support for Homey

New test version published

Version: 2.14.10

  • Added Ring Alarm Basestation
  • Added Ring Intercom Video
  • Prepared app for Homey Pro firmware 12.9

This version brings the Ring Alarm Basestation and the Ring Intercom Video to your Homey.

After adding the Basestation to your Homey you will be able to see the following capabilities:

  • Burglar Alarm
  • Fire Alarm
  • Medical Alarm
  • Panic Alarm
  • Tamper Alarm
  • Power Source
  • Communication type

and you will be able to make flows based on the status of the different alarms.

Obviously you will also be able to set the Surveillance Mode from the device itself and from flows!

@Patrick_Hunt the Ring Basestation will now be recognised by Apple Home when using HomeKitty. If you had your basestation added earlier, you will have to delete it and add it again.

And this version brings support for the Ring Intercom Video. For now only the Ring function is implemented, a future version may add support for Live Video, not ETA however.

Next to that, the app is also ready for the upcoming release of Homey firmware 12.9.01!
This firmware, which will be released for Homey Pro 2016-2019, Homey Pro 2023 and Homey Pro Mini will bring Nodejs 22.20.0 to Homey Pro for the environment in which apps run. This means there is no longer the need for polyfills 2 and extra effort by developers to support apps on Homey Pro 2016-2019!

Important notice: This version can currently only be installed when your Homey is configured for using Experimental Updates as Homey Pro firmware is still in beta.
Advice: Do not turn on Experimental Updates on systems on which you rely for operation of your home!

1 This version number is the version number which is communicated by Athom at this time, this may differ when actually released.
2 A polyfill is extra code that adds new features to Homey which aren’t supported due to Homey Pro 2016-2019 using an old version of Nodejs. (And soon this is no longer needed!)
