Ring Video Doorbells are very popular, but not all of us can constantly monitor their phone to answer every alert at their door.  Amazon has finally released a solution, allowing your visitors to interact with Alexa via your door bell camera and speaker, and get an appropriate response, such as prompts to leave a message or instructions on where to leave your package.
