I currently don’t have or think I need one in my flat, I live alone in a quiet neighbourhood,
But in two weeks time I’ll be living in a city that has a reputation for being one of the higher crime rates in NZ What happens there depends on what I find in the way of accommodation.

You scare me to death. I don’t have one and still open my door here. But Sweden may also become more unsecure these days. Maybe i should get one. /A 31 dec. 2019 kl. 01:15 skrev Petrus Tuerlings <petrus.t...@gmail.com<mailto:petrus.t...@gmail.com>>: Hi Simon and Karen, Yes, I’m a bit like Simon and can’t be bothered with all this automation. However I agree with Karen as security is very important and I think we are spoiled here in NZ as not that many people live in apartment buildings. It is becoming more common now days. I have a security screen on both my front door and the back door so I can open the main door without giving access to the person on the other side. Those video door bell monitors have another advantage as well. A friend of ours was visiting us for lunge the other day and he got an alert on his iPhone and noticed that someone was at his front door about 20klm away, lucky they weren’t trying to brake in but if they were at least he could inform the police. I’m a male but I still wouldn’t open my security door without checking first. I think there should be some kind of standard and law that makes all of these apps for security systems accessible to all. All people should feel safe regardless of gender or abilities.

Nor have I yet to find a device of this nature that works as I desire. Still, speaking personally, after three sex assaults, more than a few repair people staying silent after opening the door as you describe, kids knocking and running away when I still lived in an apartment building, and having to phone the authorities when someone decided to knock at 1:30 a. m...I would rather have a firm way of knowing that the person on the other side of my door is someone I wish to encounter. To make this a tad lighter, I would like to know this before walking down the flight of stairs between me and my front door presently. Yes I am a women living alone, and I realize you are not a women living alone. Still, that is my take on why some might appreciate the extra technology layer.

Why do people need door bells that make noise and have attached cameras and microphones. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com<mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com<mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com>> On Behalf Of Angie Nutt Sent: Tuesday, 31 December 2019 1:45 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com<mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> Subject: Re: Ring Video Doorbell Hi It may have improved but I’ve heard from other blind people that it’s not easy to find the button to speak to whoever is at the door and was slow to respond.
