Make this Thanksgiving even more fun with customizable doorbell chimes, now available for free for Vivint home security users . Today's video doorbells usually offer an array of chime noises, but options can temporarily expand around the holidays to include themed doorbell rings. Vivint is particularly good at this: If you have a compatible doorbell like a Vivint Doorbell Camera Pro , you'll find new Thanksgiving chimes starting Wednesday.
When relatives or friends come ringing, they'll be greeted with appropriate cheer. This year, Vivint's Thanksgiving options include three chimes -- a gobbling turkey, an old-fashioned dinner bell and a tea kettle whistle. You can use the settings options in your Vivint app to set the chimes at any time.
You can also expand the effect throughout the home with Vivint's remote plugin door chime speakers. Vivint's chimes only work with the Vivint app and compatible Vivint doorbells. These particular holiday chimes will expire on Nov.
25, but Vivint should have a new set ready for the Christmas holidays as well. If you don't have a Vivint system, you're not totally out of Thanksgiving chime options. Other brands often offer seasonal chimes too.
The Google Nest Doorbell , for example, allows you to enable seasonal ringing -- and while offerings vary from year to year, you can check settings on the week of Thanksgiving to see if any turkey-friendly chimes have arrived.
