Protect Your Privacy on Ring app

  • Launch Ring App
  • Tap 3 line menu on top left

  • In Control Center, check these three areas
  1. Account Verification – Change to Text instead of Email
  2. Authorized Client Devices – give this list a look over to make sure all of these devices belong to you or someone else you have authorized as a shared user
  3. Shared Users – review each person listed to make sure you only see who you have granted access
