What can I use to ring my Arlo Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free?

The wire-free Arlo Essential Video Doorbell offers several chime options. To hear a ring when someone presses your doorbell, you can connect the doorbell to your home’s traditional chime, a smart home voice assistant system, your mobile device (for SIP video call), and an Arlo Chime with a compatible Arlo SmartHub or base station.

You can take advantage of a variety of wire-free options to hear a ring and receive notifications when someone presses your Arlo doorbell.

• Smart home voice assistant systems
  You can use a home voice assistant system—like Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Samsung SmartThings, and IFTTT—to make an announcement when someone presses your wire-free Arlo Essential Video Doorbell.

• Doorbell video phone call
  Your wire-free Arlo Essential Video Doorbell is connected to your mobile device when you first set up the doorbell in the Arlo app. Your phone rings when someone presses your doorbell, and you can answer the phone to speak with the person who rang the doorbell. If you have an iOS device, you can assign a contact name and ringtone to the doorbell. For more information, visit How do I receive incoming calls on my smartphone from the Arlo Doorbell?.
• Arlo Chime
