Hi Trace
Im not sure if this is what you are looking for so hopefully you will get
other suggestions but I am using the Ring doorbell which has pluss and
minuss. Its a video doorbell, so its relatively expensive at £160. It
works on Wi-Fi and remotely on your phone if you have the bandwidth. It is
accessible on IOS devices and you can have a two-way conversation using your
iPhone. It can also be set up as a motion detector so that someone
approaching your door will set it off.
On the debit side apart from the price and potentially unnecessary video I
find the app sluggish when I want to answer from my phone. Although most of
the buttons can be swiped to, the answer button has to be located directly
on the screen before it can be tapped. It always appears in the same place
though. It is not particularly easy to set up but once done all the
functions are accessible. I am sure there are cheaper bell only ones out
there if that is what you are looking for so hopefully there will be other
suggestions.

hi
anyone know which doorbell apps are accessible, there seem to be a good few
out there, also, where would i buy the actual doorbell unit from which i'd
have to pair up with the phone .
my new guide dog loves sunning herself in the back garden and i can't hear
my current doorbell from there and so my idea is to get something so i can
sit out in the garden with her, won't do me any harm to get more fresh air
