Hello,

is there a way to forward the doorbell to a smartphone? Or even have it ring only on the phone? I don’t want a camera, intercom, or anything like that. I just want my phone to be alerted when someone rings the doorbell.

There are a few situations where I think this would be very useful. I work from home a lot, and my office will be located in the attic. I also listen to a lot of music there. If someone rings the door downstairs, I probably won’t hear it.

Another situation is when the children are sleeping, and you want to turn off the acoustic doorbell sound but still be notified via phone when someone rings. The classic scenario: the kids are put to bed, and mom and dad have ordered some food...

Are there simple solutions without using cameras or similar equipment?

Thanks for the advice

"Ring" is a well-known product for this purpose.

Thanks to KNX, an LED on the push button in our music room lights up red when someone rings.

True, now Ring also offers a product without a camera

We also use KNX. Each MDT glass switch sends a corresponding signal, and a text message is sent to the phone (but only when I am away).

This is how I implemented it as well, including the shutdown when it gets dark, just as the original poster requested. Again, KNX makes everything possible.
