Features of the New Apps

For details on the very latest update, see App Updates below

New Look and Feel.  

The user interface is a more holistic view of your home and the connected products in it.  Let us know what you think by sending in your feedback through the app.

Finally, you can create automations on your mobile device! You no longer need to login to your web portal to create or edit your automations.

A New Way to Organize. The new Groups tab allows you to group products that you choose all on one tab.  Group by room, by function, or whatever you please. For more information about creating and using Groups on the web portal, see the Help Files.

More Exciting Stuff:

  • Android users now have the option to receive Push Notifications instead of text message alerts. iPhone users currently enjoy this feature.
  • Functionality for the Garage Door Controller. Did you leave and forget to close the garage?  Now, close it from anywhere on your mobile app.
  • Shared Lock Codes. Mobile users can now allow multiple locks to share the same code, a feature that was most recently only available through the web portal.
  • Solar Management. Manage your solar production when you’re out and about while saving money on your utility bills!
  • One button device enrollment.  Connecting more products to your network is even easier and can be done directly from your mobile device
