Door device
Hello all,
I am working in a financial company and I have a meeting next week. So I'll be out-of-state for 4 days. My wife and daughter will be alone in the house, so I have to take some safety precautions. We have a fiberglass door and it is very strong. But she doesn't have the habit of checking who is knocking the door even though we have a peephole. So I would like to install a device that can allow her to see and talk to the visitor before opening the door. Does anyone here have any suggestions?? Any suggestions about this will be greatly helpful.

(you could use ring with a deadbolt operated through the Ring app. this way she has to take some action and check who is in front the door before she can even open it.)
Start with: "OK Honey"!!
Then: IF doorbell rings, AND looking through peephole is OK, THEN: open door.
Test this flow only once. When not working; do hard reset! Still not working? Do update, or: bye bye honey!

BTW. Ring doorbell is the best solution but it will take a time to get it delivered.
