Stay in control, even when you’re away

View live camera feeds and recordings

Keep your home safer with cameras and security that work together. Check on what's happening around your home day and night, and rewatch important events with 30-day DVR recording and Smart Clips.

Lock and unlock your home

Ratings and reviews

The latest update causes the app to freeze, and you have to force stop it and then open it again for it to work. Also, video playback is hit and miss, and sometimes it will jump from the day you are scrolling to some previous day's feed. The video will also get stuck on a certain minute of the day, and you can't play another. Receive error of it can't play it. It worked better before the most recent update. Please fix this. Thank you.

Terrible. For how much the system costs (monthly fees plus equipment) you would expect it to work. The app is glitchy, the "smart" features are constantly failing, the camera constantly goes offline, and the package recognition system is utterly worthless. We've had numerous packages stolen and half the time the deter sound doesn't even go off. I'm fed up, have been fed up for a long time but we're stuck with the stupid thing. Maybe this will deter someone from making my mistake.

Update 3/12/2025 The app is worse than ever. I can't retrieve any video recordings, and it skips around on the times. Fix it already! When we first bought the system everything had worked as it should. Now a couple years later we have had nothing but issues with both the app and the system. We paid entirely too much money for the garbage this has turned into. Wish there was a way to get a refund since it's not performing as it should. My advice? Don't waste your money with this system.
