The Mobile Security App Can Make It Appear Like You Are Home
Picture that someone approaches your Lakeland home while you're a few states away, relaxing at your coastside resort. A smart phone alert asks you to drop into your doorbell camera video feed. It might be a postal worker, but to be safe, you thank him using the security app’s two-way talk feature. Then you turn on the porch smart light and assign a friend a smart lock code so they can put the package into the front hall for you.
A state-of-the-art home security system should have a powerful smartphone app that lets you control almost all home security and automation equipment. The app will let you:
- See phone notifications when a component detects unusual activity
- Disarm and arm your security devices
- Make lock PINs and check the status of your smart locks
- See live feeds of your Lakeland security cameras
- Set schedules for your smart components
- Turn up and dim your smart lights
