Hi There, 

I have recently installed the wired video doorbell and was wondering if there was a way to change the notification on my IPhone from a call to a simple notification/alert. I don't have a mechanical chime but have set up my Alexa to make the chime sound so would like to keep that activated all the time. I've tried to turn on the silent mode but that also turns the Alexa chime off as well. Maybe its possible to have as an enhancement to toggle between call and notification/alert on the phone (so maybe only a call if away from your house etc.)?

I've looked at other threads but I think they are more applicable to those who have the mechanical chime (so silence the call but keep the chime working).

Any help/insight would be much appreciated.

Not directly. You'd have to simply use the camera recording as someone walked up to the door for such a notification. Silent mode would eliminate the call.
