Family just got one of these dumb things and I need a quick replacement option to order and return this crap. What is there that works offline and I can set up to work with fruit phones? (Not a fruit phone/fruit salad user)

      This really isn’t a helpful answer. People don’t get a Ring for the doorbell, they get it for the camera. This post is requesting a good private security camera that can also record and maybe allow you to talk to whoever is at your door. Your answer is the equivalent of:

      Q: Gasoline-powered car - what are the easiest hybrid alternatives?

      A: A normal goddamn bicycle

        I unironically agree with your equivalent, too. Car bad bike good.

        Putting a camera on the front of your house is stupid just answer the door asshole.
