Thanksgiving is still on the horizon, but that’s not stopping Ring from getting into the holiday spirit. Starting next week, customers will have access to six seasonal Grinch Quick Replies. Voiced by James Austin Johnson from Saturday Night Live, these offer a fun way to greet visitors with prerecorded messages. All Ring video doorbells (except first-generation models) support the Quick Replies.
The six Quick Replies are spread across two groups — one group asks your visitors to leave a message, and the other lets them know you’ll be right with them. Getting the Grinch to answer your Ring Doorbell is pretty easy, as you’ll just need to use your mobile companion app. Dive into the Devices menu, find your doorbell, then select Smart Responses. This is where you’ll find all available Quick Replies.
Interested in adding a Grinch Quick Reply to your door? Here’s a look at the six dialogue options available for both types of Quick Replies.
If you had a Ring Doorbell in 2023, you’ll notice that these are the same Quick Replies made available last November. Still, it’s cool to see Ring bringing them back again this year — even if a few new phrases would have been nice.
The Grinch Quick Replies will be available on Ring Video Doorbells from November 25 through December 26. In the market for a new video doorbell? Check out our guide to the best video doorbells, which is dominated by Ring, Google, Wyze, and Arlo.
