Echo Hub or similar interface with Ring security system or move to different?

Should I buy some type of interface for a Ring security system or go with something different? We are currently in a rental home using Ring, which has worked well so far, but Mrs. TigerFanatic1 doesn't like the Ring keypad and doesn't want it in the home we are building. We currently don't plan to have anything crazy as far as a smart home, just typical things like thermostats, certain lights, garage door openers, and maybe some outdoor screens. Any recommendations?

You posted something similar in another thread a few days ago and the response was you DO NOT need to use the Ring keypad. I never use it and use the Ring app on my cell or use verbal commands to control lights, outlets, thermostats and Ring devices via my Alexa devices or my cell. I have an Echo 10 I can use as an digital interface I have setup for that to use if I need to but never have . You can also repurpose an older iPad or another tablet and mount it on the wall if you choose. I have seen plenty of You Tube videos where people have done exactly that.
