About this app

Internet of Things, Meet…The Security of Things

Take Control of Your Smart ADT Security Virtually Anywhere

We live in an age when we expect great technology – think of the Internet of Things – to make our lives easier and better. The ADT Control app builds on that notion to create a smarter security and automation system. Let’s call it The Security of Things.

ADT Control offers a seamless transition from at-home or at-work, to mobile smart security and automation. It extends the functionality of your ADT Command smart home or business security system, and puts it in the palm of your hand – virtually anywhere you go around the world. It goes beyond protecting what matters most to you, and delivers really smart security for your home or business.

How the ADT Control app puts you in command of your smart security and automation:

• Arm or disarm your home or business security from virtually anywhere.
• Control your lights so your home or business always looks occupied.
• Lock or unlock your doors remotely to let in contractors, visitors or the dog walker.
• Receive alerts when your system status changes or a door is unlocked, such as when your kids arrive home or your manager gets to work. Then view live video to check in on them.
• Adjust your smart thermostat to make everyone comfortable and even potentially lower your energy expenses.

Create Scenes and Schedules to bring it all together!
Using the ADT Control app, you can create scenes and schedules that give you the ultimate one-touch control of your smart home or business security and automation:
• Set up automations for leaving or arriving to your home or business.
• Create a vacation Scene that turns on different lights at different times, turns the TV or radio on and off, and generally makes it look like you’re home when you’re away.
• Adjust your system for different times of day so your security, lighting, temperature and other smart features are at the perfect settings, at the right time.

cameras are terrible very low quality. system keeps disconnecting from WiFi even though everything else in the home stays connected. I tried to cancel but they said that I was in a contract and would have to pay for the remaining months of the contract. Even though I paid for the equipment and install upfront. You are better off buying your own equipment and install your self instead of paying for their service. I do not recommend and can't wait to get out of this contract.

This app stopped working for 2 weeks and I don't know why. The quality has slowly deteriorated. The response time to show live camera feed had gotten slower and slower until it just stopped altogether. Not to mention that I don't receive app notifications until 2-3 minutes after an event has happened. That's not helpful at all. Plus, the cameras don't have sound. If I had money to invest in DIY cameras, I would recommend that over ADT.

App is an easy way to control the system. Unfortunately, since the February update I get a warning message on my home screen of the app that my control pad is not connected to a Wifi network. The control pad shows that it is connected. I've "configured" wifi through the app 4 or more times, I watch the control pad go through system configuration and I still have the warning ⚠️ symbol. Ennervating bug.
