Without a subscription, Ring videos are not stored for any length of time. They are only viewable in real-time, meaning you can see live footage, but once the session ends, the video is not saved. To keep videos, you need a Ring Protect plan, which allows access to recorded footage for a specified period. Consider subscribing to manage your security footage effectively and review past events whenever necessary. This offers the peace of mind and convenience that come with accessible, stored video content when needed.
