Two Batteries Not Showing Up In App

I bought and fully changed two new batteries for my spotlight camera. The app only detects one battery. I have tried all the "fixes" and tried to speak to customer service but waited quite a long time after verifying my identity/account and supposedly being routed to "priority queue". After reading some comments regarding similar issue, I tried backing out of device health and going to power settings. In power settings, it shows that battery two is fully charged but does not detect battery one - exact opposite of what device health showed! Clearly an issue with the app not properly detecting the batteries but good luck trying to speak with anyone from Ring! I have only reached a human one time after multiple attempts to get "support". Apparently once purchases have been made responsiveness to customers ends. I sure do get a lot of emails trying to get me to buy more devices!

    Hi @user_c19780. Make sure both batteries are firmly inserted into the battery hatch on the Spotlight Cam. After doing that, perform a reboot from the Device Health page in the Ring app. This should only take a few moments. Once the reboot is done, activate a Live View or trigger a test motion event, then navigate back to the Device Health page. It should have updated to reflect the status of both batteries. 

    If both batteries are not showing after trying the troubleshooting steps listed above, you would need to contact our support team to look into this further. In addition to reaching out via phone, you can also get in touch on Facebook @Ring by sending a private message with a few details about this concern.
