The Right Security App Makes It Feel Like You Are At Home
Picture that someone approaches your St. Petersburg home while you're a few states away, relaxing at your beachside resort. A smart phone alert lets you look at your doorbell camera video feed. It might be a delivery person, but to be on the safe side, you thank her with the security app’s two-way talk feature. Then you hit the button that turns on the front porch smart light and give a friend a smart lock PIN code so they can put the package into the garage for you.
A state-of-the-art home security system should come with a robust phone app that lets you command a lot of your safety and home automation components. The app should let you:
- Receive phone texts when a component detects unusual activity
- Turn of and on your security devices
- Set lock PINs and see the status of your doors
- Watch live feeds of your St. Petersburg smart security cameras
- Make activation schedules for your devices
- Turn down and dim your smart lighting
