Brinks Home 5.6.1

Android users are dedicated to their mobile devices. Smartphones and tablets can access a wide variety of reliable and user-friendly apps. The Brinks Home Security app stands out due to its ability to empower either device to control nearly every aspect of your home security alarm system and smart-home automation.

The seamless integration with Alarm.com's interactive features and compatible equipment allows the Brinks Home Security app to provide remote home management from virtually anywhere. Beyond the typical home security alarm system, you can incorporate security cameras, lights, locks, thermostats, garage door openers, and other devices into your setup. With just a simple swipe or tap, you can manage your security and home automation tools and stay informed about any developments at a moment's notice.

Going beyond basic security measures, the Brinks Home Security app enables you to interact with your home security alarm system whether you are upstairs or in another part of town. Leveraging the smart home solution, you can arm/disarm your system, lock/unlock doors, monitor the garage door, or utilize a video doorbell to see who is at your doorstep. This app eliminates concerns about forgetting to secure your home by allowing you to check in from anywhere.

Including home security cameras as part of Brinks Home Security is a well-received feature. Live or recorded video feed provides constant insight into activities at home while you are away—making it easy to monitor children, pets, or property.

Smart thermostats are not only convenient but also contribute to energy savings. With the app, you can control your thermostat remotely, establish a customized schedule based on your lifestyle, or let the thermostat learn your patterns and adjust settings for maximum efficiency.

Controlling your lighting remotely is an effective way to conserve energy and deter potential intruders who target unoccupied homes. Maintain an element of uncertainty by setting a lighting schedule or turning on lights throughout your smart home when it gets dark and you are running behind schedule.

The Brinks Home Security app provides several advanced features:

• Geo-fencing technology automatically triggers actions based on your location when you are away—ranging from real-time alerts like an open garage door to tasks like adjusting the thermostat or turning on lights.
• Instant notifications via email, text, or push alerts for potential emergencies such as home security alarms, break-ins, or equipment malfunctions.
• Customized event alerts—for instance, notifications when your children arrive home from school or when service providers like housekeepers or pet sitters enter your residence.

Important note: To use this app, you must have a compatible smart-home system and an interactive Alarm.com service plan. Feature availability may vary depending on the system, equipment, and service plan in use. For more details, please visit www.brinkshome.com.
