Great smart home alarm
10/26/2018

This is a good alarm choice for a smart home - and one that doesn’t break the bank. We have our Scout integrated with Alexa and IFTT. This is ultra convenient for voice arming and disarming, as well as auto arming on a schedule.The app is pretty good and gives the notifications I need. And allows good control.I see this alarm as a deterrent to a burglar. And a warning to me as owner. Not a full-proof one. Though I think few are full-proof.Sometimes there is a delay on sensors responding-due mostly to the location of the hub-so plan ahead on that. And I’ve also had sensor need to be reset to work at all. ...So on these points is where it gets 4 stars instead of 5. Ideally it would be perfectly reliable. But it’s pretty darn good. And if you are willing to monitor it a little the little things are workable.I didn’t find a better solution for what I was willing to spend and for the convenience this has. I’d recommend this system for a fairly low risk middle income neighborhood like mine, where I’m a pro-active owner.

I think the interface is great and is very easy to use. Very easy to sync and manage each device. I also have the doorbell camera attached to it. Very satisfied

Okay but bare bones.

This app is relatively easy to use once setup but two things make it a pain to use. 1 is it constantly logs you out of the service. About 50% of the time when I go to use it to activate or deactivate the alarm. I have to log back in again. 2 It does not support Face Id. This makes the above issue even more of a pain point. ugh.
