Firmware updates for Ring devices

Ring devices automatically receive firmware updates during initial setup. After setup, your device will continue updating firmware automatically.

• Battery-powered devices:

  You cannot use your device during firmware updates. When the device light stops flashing or turns off, the update has finished. Your device is then ready to use.
• Wired or plug-in devices:

  You can use your device during firmware updates, but it might temporarily run slower. When the device light stops flashing, the update has finished and performance immediately returns to normal.

Caution! Do not remove your Ring device from power or press the setup button while updating.
