Ratings and reviews

Does the job of arming/disarming but now you have to pay a yearly subscription, I'd expect some new features for the alarm side of things. For instance, android auto to make it easier to manually disarm when close to home, or location services to disarm when arriving within a certain distance, another one is Google/Alexa integration so the alarm can be armed/disarmed using evening/morning routines. I don't feel that anything is happening with the app/features.

Terrible app. Almost always offline. Now they want to charge for it. UPDATE to developers response. It is offline more than other WiFi device to the point I can't rely on it when not at home. I have to use the app for the system installed by the alarm co. They have looked into the problem and installed tp links but nothing changes. So I'm stuck with a poor system and app which I have to tolerate. Then I here you want to charge for it and the installer may increase their fees! Unbelievable.

im a brand new customer and my firat impressions are not very good. This is a very dated app and needs a complete refactor. Notifications are not working as expected either. It would be great to have push notifications so we can be notified of alarm status changes on our device. I would also like to see Alexa or Google Assistant support so can tell it to set the alarm and also control the alarn in Googoe Home. Im happy with my alarm system, but this app does not do it justice.
