I think you will need a subscription. The lowest cost plan is $30 per year. When there is motion near the Ring device, it will create a short, 15 second video and save it as a "motion event", and you can review it later. But, without a subscription, it will not save any motion events. The only thing you can do without a subscription is to view the camera in a live view.
I got tired of sitting in front of my computer all day watching the front door, so I broke down and bought the $30 subscription.
