In this article, we will go over the Ring Protect Plan subscription and costs, as well as tips on how to save on your next Ring purchase.
The Ring Protect plans allow you to store recorded video clips and watch them 24/7. This works for both live-view footage and motion detections. So, if you are concerned about someone being at your home or around your door, you can always go back and watch the video footage whenever you want.
All Ring cameras and devices can be used for free without a Prime or Ring Protect Plan subscription. However, if you don’t get the Ring Protect Plan, you will miss out on a few features:
- You won’t be able to share video footage with friends or on social media.You won’t be able to store photos and videos in the Ring Cloud.You won’t be able to connect the camera to the Ring Alarm System.
When you buy a Ring camera, you get a free month of Ring Protect to help you decide whether you want to purchase it or not. At the end of the 30 days, you will have a choice to start making the monthly fee or opt out of the plan.
