Add New Locations to your Neighbors Feed

In the Neighbors and Ring app, you can add up to three US-based locations or neighborhoods to your feed without the need for a Ring device. You can toggle between different neighborhood locations in real time and get content like safety, recommendations, lost pets, and other alerts directly on your feed.

The multiple locations feature is helpful if you own more than one home or travel a lot and want to check in on loved ones while you’re away. You’ll get important posts from the neighborhoods you care about the most—like your elderly parents’ home or a second home location.

To add a new location in the Ring or Neighbors app:

  1. Tap
    menu (≡)
    on the right side of your
    Dashboard
    in the Ring or Neighbors app.
  2. Select
    Neighbors
    .
  3. Tap the downward triangle at the top of your
    Neighbors feed.
  4. Tap
    Add a Neighborhood
    in the drop down menu to add a new neighborhood.
  5. Find your neighborhood using the following options:
  • Use Current Location
    • If you tap on
      Use Current Location
      , allow the
      Neighbors or Ring app
      to use your location.
    • Confirm your location.
    • Give your neighborhood a name or custom description.
    • Tap
      Finish.
    • You will receive confirmation when you’ve successfully added a new neighborhood.
  • Enter Address Instead
     
    • Under
      Find Neighborhood,
      manually enter your address.
    • Confirm
      Location.
    • Give your neighborhood a name or custom description.
    • You will receive confirmation when you’ve successfully added a new neighborhood.

To remove an additional location:

  1. Go to
    Settings.
  2. Tap on
    My Neighborhood
    .
  3. Tap on
    Remove This Neighborhood.
  4. Tap
    Remove.

Note: In earlier versions of the app, users could only see posts within a five-mile radius for one location if they had a Ring device attached to the location. If there is no Ring device attached, then users will still get a maximum of three locations they can add.
