The server 164 obtains motion data from a smart device e. g. , the doorbell camera 106, and identifies based on analysis of the motion data a motion event involving a visitor approaching an entryway e. g. , a door of the smart home environment 100. The server 164 obtains context information from the smart home environment 100 for the motion event, and based on the context information, identifies a plurality of appropriate actions available to a user of a client device for interacting with the visitor via the doorbell camera 106. The identified actions are presented to the user of the client device 220. For example, the appropriate actions include, but are not limited to, displaying a visual pattern on a light ring of the doorbell camera 106, broadcasting an audio message to the visitor, and collecting more information concerning the visitor using the doorbell camera 106. The doorbell integrated in the doorbell camera 106 can also take advantage of computational and communication capabilities of the doorbell camera 106. In some implementations, a schedule can be defined on the user mobile application 624 of the client device 220 to control a remote chime device that rings in response to a user press on the doorbell button of the doorbell camera 106. For example, in accordance with the schedule, the remote chime device may be controlled to remain silent from 12 PM to 4 PM every day, thereby allowing a homeowner to have a quiet afternoon nap.
