I have Blink and Ring. Called Blink to opt out and they did not know what I was discussing. Called Amazon and spoke with someone in the sidewalk group. He said Alexa or Echo are needed for the Blink or Ring to use Sidewalk. I also told him this was handled badly and to enroll users by not opting out with in ten days was an issue. I plan to call Ring to discuss. If I find out differs then above I will let you know.

So if I don’t have Alexa or Echo this Sidewalk doesn’t apply even though I have Ring cams? When I select Sidewalk in my Ring settings, there is no option to opt out.

To disable it on a Ring system, go into the Ring app or your Ring online account, find the “Control Center” listing, open it and scroll down until you find the “Amazon Sidewalk” listing, open it and set the button to the disabled position.
