Alarm.com is a free lifestyle app developed for iPhone by Alarm.com that allows you to keep your home or business connected, protected and one step ahead. With Alarm.com, you can easily control your entire property remotely, know what’s going on with intelligent alerts and live video feeds, and automate your daily security routine and other time-consuming tasks. The app requires a compatible system and an interactive Alarm.com service plan, and feature availability varies based on system, equipment, and service plan.

One of the standout features of Alarm.com is its smarter home security options. You can control your security panel, locks, lights and more from anywhere, get alerts when people enter and leave, or when there’s unexpected activity, and watch live and recorded video from indoor and outdoor cameras. You can also customize your video alerts to see specific activity only and talk to visitors through your doorbell camera and unlock your door from the same screen.

In addition, Alarm.com offers smarter business security features such as arming or disarming your security panel across multiple locations, getting alerted if the store opens late or an employee accesses a restricted area, and automating your lights, locks, thermostats and more. You can also track and manage access to multiple properties, buzz open your access control doors from the Doorbell Call screen, and respond to alarm events and alert emergency personnel.
