Does the Ring Doorbell work with Siri?

Best answer: Currently, the Ring doorbell does not support Homekit or Siri. Integration between the two has been expected for quite some time, however, there is no current compatibility.Amazon: Ring Video Doorbell 2 (opens in new tab) ($199)

Where are you, Homekit?

While it's been in the works for quite some time, there is still no sign of Homekit support for the Ring line of products. The company has stated that support has been in the works as far back as 2017, but nothing has yet come to fruition.

Using the Ring app, you'll still be able to have total control over your entryway. You'll get love 1080HD video, motion-activated alerts, two-way talk, custom sensors, and even Alexa integration — just don't go asking Siri who's at your door anytime in the near future.

Netatmo's Smart Video Doorbell, announced at CES 2019, would be the first official Homekit-enabled doorbell.

Still Great

Still one of the best you can buy.

Homekit support has been expected for quite some time, so there's still a change that the Ring will get Apple-ized at some point in the future. If you don't need a solution right away, it's worth waiting for the Netatmo Smart Video Doorbell or other Homekit-enabled offerings that are sure to follow later this year.
